Your local team since 2011

Jack Fairburn started JWF from a single van in Burnley.

fifteen years on, we're a team of six with multiple vans on the road, and we clean windows for households and businesses across BB10, BB11 and BB12 every week. If you've been searching for a window cleaner in Burnley, this page tells you what we do, where we work, and how to get a price.

We're not a national franchise. We live here. Most of our work comes through word of mouth — a neighbour, a friend on Facebook, the boss of the shop next door — and the patches we know best are the ones we've been cleaning for years. Jack Fairburn started JWF in Burnley in 2011 — the team's grown, but the round hasn't moved far.

What we offer

Two rounds, same standard.

Most Burnley work splits into two — homes on a four- or eight-weekly schedule, and commercial premises on a regular contract. Both run on the same reach-and-wash system, both get the frames and sills as standard, both are insured.

Domestic

Window cleaning for Burnley homes

Most residential customers are on a four-weekly round. Some prefer eight-weekly. We don't tie anyone in — you book, we come, and we'll let you know the day before so you can leave a side gate open.

  • Glass, frames, sills and door panels included
  • Three-bed terrace in BB11: typically £12–£15 per clean
  • No ladders — reach-and-wash up to three storeys
  • Text the day before, no contract, cancel anytime

Commercial

Shops, offices, schools & care homes

  • £5M public liability, RAMS on request
  • Out-of-hours scheduling for hospitality & retail
  • Monthly invoicing, no minimum term
  • Current clients include McDonald's, Blackburn College, Clubhouse

Why Burnley sticks with us

Three things that aren't on every website.

A few things genuinely set us apart, and they're worth knowing before you book.

01 /

We're from here.

Jack founded JWF in Burnley. The whole team lives within ten miles of the patch. When a customer rings about a problem, the person who answers knows the street.

02 /

We're part of the local scene.

We sponsor Burnley Belvedere FC, the amateur club that's been part of this town since 1881, and we back local boxer Nathan Danson. We've raised money for charity through local clubs more than a few times.

03 /

We look out for our older customers.

A lot of our long-standing residential customers are in their seventies and eighties. If we're there and they need a bag of shopping moved or a wheelie bin shifted, we do it. We've never charged extra for that and we never will.

How we actually clean

Pure water, reach-and-wash, no soap on your brickwork.

The method matters. Most cleaners in Burnley still use ladders, buckets and detergent — fine on a single-storey house, slower and riskier on anything bigger, and the soap residue dulls the glass over time.

We use a pure water reach-and-wash system. The water is filtered to zero parts per million — no minerals, no salts, nothing that can leave a mark when it dries. The pole reaches up to three storeys. The brush head is soft enough not to scratch leaded panes or older glass. There's no ladder against your wall, no soap on your brickwork, no streaks when it dries.

It also means we can clean in light rain. Rain on already-cleaned pure water glass doesn't streak — there's nothing for the rain to react with. We won't come out in heavy weather, but a damp day doesn't cancel a round. More on our window cleaning service.

FAQs

Questions we get most weeks.

How much does window cleaning cost in Burnley?

Most three-bed terraced houses in BB11 are £12–£15 per clean on a four-weekly round. Semis are £15–£20. Larger detached properties are quoted individually. Commercial pricing depends on the site — call with the address and we'll come and look.

How often should I get my windows cleaned?

For residential, four-weekly is what most people choose — it keeps the glass consistently clear without being excessive. Eight-weekly works if your property is more sheltered or you'd rather space them out.

For commercial premises, frequency depends on footfall, position and visibility — a high-street shop usually wants fortnightly or four-weekly; an industrial unit might be quarterly.

Do I need to be home when you come?

No. We work outside the property. Frames and sills are included as standard. All we need is access to the back, which usually means an unlocked side gate. We always text or message the day before so you can sort that.

Do you work in the rain?

Light rain, yes. The pure water system means rain doesn't streak the glass — when the water on the windows is the same purity as the rain, there's nothing left to mark. In heavy weather we'll reschedule, and we won't charge you for a missed clean.

How do I pay?

BACS, card over the phone, or cash on the day. No subscriptions, no direct debit lock-in. You can stop the round whenever — we just ask for a quick message so we can update the schedule.

Got a related job? See our gutter cleaning service — we often pair the two on the same visit.
