When I agreed to review the cleaning product Fish Foam by Fish Window Cleaning, I had no idea they were also a full-service company who actually comes out to clean all your windows, screens, gutters, chandeliers, ceiling fans, skylights, awnings and mirrors.
Since I've started working, weekends are already full with completing the basics (like maybe feeding my family a home cooked meal) . . . much less deep cleaning like my windows and screens. So, I was in awe of the THOUGHT of having a service come handle the hard-to-reach spots my husband and I keep ignoring (like maybe the dirt will just rub off or blow away or something.}
When Fish Window Cleaning offered a full window cleaning for my home to try to service and their foaming cleanser, I was more than excited! In fact, I added a hallway chandelier cleaning to the day which I paid for myself.
The service started with the owner of the local franchise, Barbara Young, coming out to see the house and determine what needed to be done. She was very helpful and friendly and left me with instructions. I had two main jobs: ONE, make the windows accessible by moving any knicknacks or furniture and raising the blinds; and TWO, buy new lightbulbs for the high-in-the-sky hallway chandelier. Well . . I got the first one right. I had to run out to buy lightbulbs after the guys started cleaning and had no fresh replacements. Oops!
I asked if the window cleaners use Fish Foam throughout the house. They actually use a mild soap, water and a squigee for large areas. Fish Foam is used for tight spaces or small glass panes like the windows above. It's also great for touch-up spots (like the intentional face mark one of our kids thought would be funny to add to our back sliding glass door after the cleaning crew left. And, believe me, I have oily faced teenagers.)
In one sentence, I was very happy with Fish Window Cleaning Service. They did an amazing job and I would definitely recommend their services! They came, they worked hard, my house shined and now I can see the rest of the dirt inside my house so much better – perfect for Spring cleaning everywhere else! Now, if they could just hose out the rest of the house and get rid of clutter! Just kidding, I wouldn't put that on anyone – that's on me.
AND, according to their website: FISH provides service to more than 100,000 commercial and residential customers nationwide. We specialize in cleaning: ground level storefronts; one, two, and three story office buildings; restaurants; banks; churches; schools; and homes. Whether at work or at home, FISH can offer a variety of services such as: exterior windows of all types, storm windows, construction clean ups, screens, mirrors, chandeliers, ceiling fans, gutters, and skylights.
Fish Foam Premium Glass Cleaner is a nice follow-up product, after using Fish Window Cleaning service for the whole house, because it STAYS PUT on the window, eliminating drips and runs. It also foams which not only makes the kids want to help but it cuts through oil and grease. You can tell this glass cleaner was made by professional window cleaners for a tough job.
