Services
The four-week round is most of it. Around it: the conservatory and its roof, the gutters and the white boards under the roofline, the shops on the high streets before they open, the solar panels in spring, and the one-off clean before a sale or a checkout. Each has its own page with what it costs and how it works.
01
The round is the heart of it: the same two cleaners on your street every four weeks, on the day the rounds page gives for your postcode, with a text the night before. Pure water on a pole from the ground, the frames and sills with every clean, the doors free, no contract, and a price you can work out from the number of windows before you ring.
£10 a visit for the first four windows and £1.
02
The sides of a conservatory added to your four-week visit for £18, and the roof, which is where the green goes, as a one-off from £65: the algae and the moss softened and brushed off with pure water on a long pole from the garden, the gutter behind the roof cleared while we are there, and no one standing on the glass.
Sides added to a round visit £18.
03
Gutters cleared with a vacuum on a pole, a camera on the end so you see what came out, no ladder on your fascia, from £95 for a semi; and the white uPVC fascias, soffits and the outside of the gutters washed back to white from £120. The two together on one visit is the usual order, in autumn after the leaves.
Gutters cleared from £95 (a semi) or £140 (a detached house), fascias, soffits and gutter fronts washed from £120 or £170, both on one visit from £190 or £280, including VAT and taking the moss away.
04
The shops on Llandaff High Street, Cowbridge Road, Whitchurch Village and Rhiwbina, done before they open: a single-fronted shop £15 a visit weekly or fortnightly, the door and the fanlight included, a double front £24, an invoice once a month. Offices, showrooms, cafés, surgeries and schools quoted by the pane after a look, inside glass at £2 a pane.
A single-fronted shop £15 a visit, a double front £24, weekly or fortnightly, from 6:30am.
05
Panels lose a tenth of their output to a year of pollen, bird mess and the film the rain leaves, and the manufacturers say pure water and a soft brush, nothing else. That is what we use, from a pole, from the ground or a secured ladder, £4 a panel with a £40 minimum. Spring, before the long days, is when it pays.
£4 a panel, minimum £40, so a ten-panel roof is £40 and sixteen panels £64.
06
A one-off clean before a party, a sale or a viewing, at the round price plus half; and the end-of-tenancy clean the letting agent wants, inside and out, frames, sills and tracks, from £60 for a two-bed flat and £95 for a three-bed house, with a dated photograph for the inventory. Saturdays and Wednesday afternoons, anywhere in Cardiff.
One-off outside clean: the round price plus half, minimum £25.

How it starts
The rounds page tells you the day; the prices page tells you the figure; the form or a text tells us you would like to be on the round. Lowri replies the same working day, the cleaner counts the windows on the first visit and writes the price on your card, and from then on you get a text the evening before every visit. No contract, no minimum, and you stop by telling us.
The rounds page gives the day and the next date for your postcode; the prices page turns a window count into the figure. Send the form or a text and Lowri replies the same working day, and your first clean goes on the next round through your street.
