Household Chores You Should Leave to Professionals

Household Chores You Should Leave to Professionals

We all know those neighbors. You know the ones, the guy next door that loves to climb on his roof, or balances precariously from a ladder washing his windows or cleaning out his gutters. Perhaps he feels comfortable up there doing that work. Maybe his day job gives him experience on ladders and scaffolding. Or maybe he’s just doing a job that is better done by a professional. There are some household chores that, while they seem easy, are sometimes done better and safer by a professional who has the right equipment and experience. These are the chores that D&H Window Cleaning can help southeast Michigan homeowners with.                

Window Cleaning

Perhaps if your home is only on one level, you may feel comfortable washing your own windows. However, if your home has multiple levels, you know that you will need to be on a ladder to get to those high windows. What makes this task even more challenging is that you have to carry a bunch of cleaning supplies up that ladder with you. If you aren’t used to spending time on a ladder it can be a scary task to get all of the equipment you need to every window on the upper levels of your house. A professional window washer like D&H Window Cleaning has well trained staff that know how to get to those tricky windows, safely. What’s even better about hiring a professional window cleaning company, is that if something is damaged or an employee gets hurt, you don’t have to worry about using your homeowner’s insurance or health insurance. Reputable, professional window cleaning companies will have both property and worker’s compensation insurance that will protect you and their employees.

Gutter Cleaning

Just like with cleaning your windows, cleaning your gutters is a task best left to the professionals. Roofs can be really tricky to maneuver if you don’t know what you are doing. So, when it comes time to clean out your gutters, it’s better to hire a professional gutter cleaner. A gutter cleaning company will come with the right tools to get on and off of your roof safely, or clean your gutters without leaving the ground. Gutter cleaning companies also know how to inspect and recommend repairs to damaged gutters. Most gutter cleaning companies will also take the time to cover landscaping and other delicate exterior features, to ensure that they will not be damaged by water and the junk that comes out of your gutters. And, as a bonus, a gutter cleaning company will clean up after the work is done, so you don’t have to worry about what to do with all of that nasty stuff that comes out of your gutters.

High Light Fixtures

If you have vaulted ceilings in your house, you know what a pain it is to try and clean the ceiling fans and light fixtures mounted in those high places. Usually, these light fixtures can’t be reached with a normal ladder. Unless you have a way to get a small man-lift into your house, you are going to be stuck renting scaffolding to do the work. If you don’t know what you are doing scaffolding can be scary and can damage flooring. It’s better to hire professional window or fixture cleaners to get these high light fixtures. They will know just how to safely set up scaffolding or ladders, protecting your flooring and your safety. With a professional in your home taking care of your high light fixtures, you will know that the job is done right, and you won’t have to spend anytime scaling ladders or scaffolding.

Sometimes, even though we think we can handle a task, it’s just better to hire a professional. Not only do professionals know how to do the job right, they have the equipment and training to do the work safely.
