FAQs
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I was in college and needed a job. I took a job off of the job board for window cleaner. I had been a tree trimmer before that. I was interviewed over the phone. I told the employer I am 6'6" tall, I am not afraid of heights, and have experience on ladders. I was hired over the phone 25 years ago, and we remain friends today.
- What types of customers have you worked with?
65% of my work is window cleaning. I do all of my other services as well. During the summer months, most of my work is on glass. I have to be well rounded to work year round in Oregon.
- Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
We recently cleaned all of the roofs at The Grotto in NE Portland. We had to work around the schedule of the mass that is held there daily. We were able to clean the roofs and gutters without interrupting the visitors or activities.
