5 Reasons Why You Should Consider A Window Washer Job

Window Washing

2 weeks ago

Overlooked and underestimated, window washers don’t receive enough credit for their hard work. Ever wonder why your neighbors’ windows look so impressive all the time? It’s not a secret. More than likely, they decided to hire a professional window washer. Typically, homeowners and commercial building owners are advised to have their windows cleaned by a service team. This way you’ll avoid safety concerns, as well as damage to property, since window washers are trained to ensure the task gets done correctly.

Always in high demand, window washing jobs are available in every major city and most small towns. Why become a window cleaner? Believe it or not, the job has many benefits. Here’s the top five reasons you should consider:

 

Endless windows to wash means job security

Stable and secure employment is another great reason to pursue a window washing career. Where there’s residential homes or commercial buildings you’ll find a plethora of dirty windows that need to be cleaned. Most high rises and taller constructions have to be done by a professional service team for safety reasons. Also it’s a year-round job for most locations, except for the few areas that hit below freezing temperatures, which means no seasonal layoffs. Not to mention, the hours aren’t bad either. In order to have a perfectly clean window you must have good lighting, which typically occurs in the early morning to afternoon. Never stress about having to work late nights.

 

Get your daily dose of Vitamin D

Going along with the rock climber reason, window washers get to be outside for their job. If you’re the type of person who enjoys spending time outdoors, as well as working with your hands, then this is a perfect occupation choice. In addition to scaling incredible heights, window cleaners get to soak up the sunshine. Regular sunlight exposure can be very beneficial, as long as it’s not too much. Did you know the sun is the most natural source of vitamin D? It actually helps support bone growth, and also has been linked to minimizing cancer cell growth!

 

The rewarding satisfaction of a job well done

Who doesn’t enjoy reaching their goal? The satisfaction after finishing a window washing project has no comparison. Even though it took a few hours to an entire day to complete, the sparkly end result is worth it. Onlookers also appreciate the breathtaking view. Unlike many other occupations, window washers have the opportunity to see what they’ve accomplished almost immediately. Every building looks better with streak-free windows that glisten in the sun. It’s unbelievable how they can clean millions of square feet without leaving a streak.

 

Never work late nights

In addition to job security and spectacular views, window washers can only work during the daytime. Good sunlight is key when it comes to this particular job. Without proper lighting, it’s difficult to determine if the window is actually streak free. Typically, window cleaning can only happen during the early morning into mid-afternoon hours. Never worry about staying longer and working later. It’s important to have a balanced lifestyle. Not having to work nights frees up time to relax, and spend time with loved ones.

 

Get paid as an urban mountaineer (aka high rise window washer)

Last, but definitely far from least. If you’re already a skilled rock climber, or thrill seeker, look no further. Window cleaners (otherwise known as urban mountaineers) have been compared to rock climbers, since they both are experts in ropes, knots, and harnesses. After substantial training, window washers have the opportunity to pursue high rise projects. Similar to cliff hangers, they learn to anchor in and rappel down from the top of a building. The extra job bonus: a bird’s eye view of places you can only imagine!

 

Why would someone avoid a window washer job? Good question, however the answer is usually pretty clear. They either fear heights or prefer being indoors, where risk factors aren’t as much of a concern. Of course, like any other job, there are going to be pros and cons. In the end, more often than not, the risk is worth the reward.
