What's actually different about Duloe

By the time window cleaning becomes obvious from the road in Duloe, it has usually been quietly building for two seasons. Hillside village between Liskeard and Looe with a prehistoric stone circle, which shapes how window cleaning on granite and painted render and Cornish slate actually plays out around PL14.

Single-track lanes, tree cover and damp valley air create the conditions algae loves. We're frequently in and around PL14, so booking-day flexibility is easier than people expect. Exposure here is exposed - 18.2 miles from our PL3 base makes turnaround short.

Most enquiries we take are from owners who've been thinking about it for a while and finally caught the right week for the weather. Payment is only ever after you've seen the photos and signed off, never up front. There's no doorstep pressure at any point in the process, and no fake deadline to sign a quote. If we spot something on the visit that's cheaper for you to sort a different way, we'll say so. Ridge tile re-bedding and any other small remedial work is quoted separately, never bundled into the wash price. Windows are usually the entry-point job for new customers, and everything else follows on from that first visit. Access photos help more than measurements when you're getting a first quote back from us. If the weather doesn't play ball on the day, we ring you before we set off, not after. The kit gets pressure-tested weekly, which is boring but it's why we haven't had a rig failure on a customer job. Water usage is metered and quoted realistically — we never charge for water we didn't use. Every job carries a written scope, a written price and a written finish standard — no ambiguity. Fascia paint repair we don't do, but we'll flag it and hand you a shortlist of decorators we trust. Conservatory glass roofs get a two-pass rinse because the profile holds pooled water otherwise. Enquiry-to-quote turnaround is measured weekly and posted on the wall in the yard. If a job goes wrong we say so on the invoice and we credit it — nothing gets buried.

Typical problems on Duloe properties

  • Hard-water spotting on glass after DIY washes - quickly visible on rural village bay fronts - at exposed exposure - something we quote weekly in this postcode.
  • Conservatory roofs darkened by algae - north slope first on rural village layouts - in the Cornwall Council patch - a job we tend to batch with neighbouring runs.
  • Pollen and tree sap pitting on glass under cover near Looe - 18.2 miles from PL3 - the reason we keep this round on a tight schedule.
  • Trickle vents fogging over on the windward side of stone cottages and farmhouses - at roughly 50.391,-4.499 - worth catching before the next wet stretch.
  • Reflective film smears appearing on solar glazing across newer Duloe estates - on granite and painted render - a pattern we see through the shoulder seasons.
