Window Cleaning

Commercial Window Cleaning Services with Safe, Streak-Free Results

CK Facilities Management provide professional, scheduled window cleaning services tailored to your organisation’s needs. We help you plan a reliable cleaning schedule, recommending the ideal frequency for each area to maintain spotless, streak-free glazing.

Our trained operatives use pure water cleaning methods to eliminate residue and reduce chemical use, supporting sustainability and clarity. Every job is preceded by a full risk assessment, ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations.

We primarily use water-fed poles to reach heights of up to 22 metres, but can also deploy towers, mobile elevated platforms (MEWPs), or cherry pickers when required. Our goal is to deliver efficient, cost-effective window cleaning that enhances your building’s appearance and hygiene.

Using an eco-friendly cleaning agent combined with high-pressure steam technology, we remove chewing gum quickly and cleanly leaving no residue or damage behind. Our method is fast and efficient, restoring pavements, entrances, and public areas in seconds.

All work is carried out by trained operatives following full health and safety risk assessments, ensuring a safe, compliant, and cost-effective service every time.

Unwanted graffiti can damage the appearance and reputation of your premises. At CK Facilities Management, we provide fast, effective graffiti removal services using advanced equipment and environmentally responsible methods.

We tailor our approach to suit the material and severity of the graffiti, ensuring a clean, restored finish without surface damage.

Whether it’s a one-off removal or part of a regular external cleaning programme, we help keep your property looking professional and graffiti-free.

Jet Washing

Our trained operatives assess each surface to ensure the correct pressure and equipment are used, preventing damage while delivering outstanding results. We also provide follow-up treatments such as resealing and joint filling to extend the life and protection of your external areas.

Satisfied customers

Thanks to your operatives, the field was kept so clean, as were the portable toilets. They were not only hardworking and very efficient, they were really helpful and charming – a real credit to their employer! We have had so many compliments about how tidy the field was during and after the event – they were in danger of overshadowing the airshow in terms of popularity.

Ms SL; Regional Operations Director, Property Group

The amount of cleaning required and in the time achieved is remarkable, how the team managed to get the floors shinny again after looking so tired and dirty after all the flood damage, is a credit for all the hard work by your team.
