Who knew all my random hobbies help me become a good window cleaner🙌🏽

What a month! Thanks for all the support so far. Fully booked til mid July. Message for future dates.

The man I love suggested I start cleaning windows. I pushed him away. Then I started cleaning windows.

Not for the money, though money is part of the reward. I've got a well-paid job, three degrees, no financial worries. I didn't do it so I could be half arsed like a random hobby.

I do it because like he said, it's perfect for me. It's therapeutic. Pure water is magic. I'm taking it seriously and I want to be better, not just good. My arms and shoulders have transformed in a month. And it keeps me close to the only person who ever really saw me.

I take two jobs a day max. Your windows get my full focus, not my leftovers.

For ladies looking for a flexible school-time side hustle, this is my top recommendation.

Same thoughts going through my head in these two photos:

"Wtf am I actually doing?"
"Why am I even doing this?"

But the pleasure and reward afterwards are the same!

As someone new to climbing and even newer to window cleaning, every climb and every clean I learn something new.

Limited experience and techniques means I was 💩 scared in my climbing. 💩 scared and exhausted from cleaning those top windows.

Looking for a better setup for those cleans, because the extended pole was just dangerous, tricky, and plain stupid.

Hi, I'm Sun – your new local window cleaner based in Charlton Hayes.
I use a telescopic water-fed pole and pure water to clean exterior windows and conservatories – no ladders, no harsh chemicals.

I work during school hours and occasional weekends, which means I'm never rushed. I take my time to do the job properly.

I'm not looking to tie you into a contract. Just looking for customers who want reliable, thorough window cleaning.

Thanks for reading!

Weeks of flyers through doors- one lovely customer, then nothing. A post in a local group- three customers, then nothing. One post like this- 100+ likes and real customers.

I could've posted about my work before and after but I kept forgetting to ask permission to take photos, the weeks I spent researching equipment and methods, practising on my own windows over and over, instead, I posted what I knew would get views.

I appreciate all the support and the genuine customers who contacted me and booked me. I do cringe sometimes at how I got those views- like a bad joke you still think about years later. But I'm proud of the work I do for every customer who booked me through that post.

Window cleaning is exhausting and not a glamorous job. If you do it full-time, you need regular customers, and that takes years to build. Let's face it-most people probably only have their windows cleaned once a year. That's fine with me because I only do it as a side hustle, and I don't mind spending over an hour on a £20 job. It's my workout. At worst, I break even.

But if you're looking to start a small business without the big initial investment for a proper setup, it's a long and tiring journey. Here's what I bought to start mine, and it cost just under £1,000:

-A carbon fibre water-fed pole with 30ft reach, so I won't need a ladder for the jobs I take

-A few brush heads—one for sills, one for panes

-A backpack

-A few 25-litre plastic water cans

-Pure water (from my local filling station)

I designed my own logo and flyer on Canva for free. Around £30 for 250 flyers from VistaPrint. £40 for public liability insurance. I don't need software to track my schedule or payments because jobs are sparse enough to record on Excel, but they are available and cheap enough.

It's basically a free workout- my main job is sitting in front of a computer most of the time. It's also therapeutic-just cleaning, sweating, enjoying the outdoors, meeting different customers. If you're lucky enough, you get a customer three minutes away from your kid's cello class. Instead of waiting around, you clean windows.

Don't let the start put you off. It's like anything- just don't second-guess your intentions and purpose.

Thank you to my lovely customers for trusting me with your windows. I've had a few questions about how pure water window cleaning works, so I thought I'd make a post to explain it better.😊
