OSHA
Regulations
Fed Register #: 59:40672-40753
In developing this final rule, OSHA has focused on requiring employers to provide construction employees with a positive method of protection against fall hazards wherever possible. At the same time, the Agency has taken steps to allow alternatives to traditional, conventional fall protection methods in situations where conventional methods can be shown to be inappropriate or unreasonable. Some of the alternative methods prescribed in revised subpart M represent innovations which are necessary to deal with unique workplace conditions. The record of this rulemaking indicates that these methods have not been used long enough or widely enough to enable the Agency to determine just how effective they will be throughout the construction industry. |

So what does this mean? In short it means if there are other means available to clean your building safety you should not use chairs or ropes. You can decide to allow chairs or ropes to be used, but if there is an accident OSHA will ask why a man lift, ladder or water fed pole were not used? In some cases these tools can not be used and this is where using a Bosin Chair is acceptable. But in today's day and age, there are many ways a window cleaner can access your glass safely.
We are not trying to scare you. Only inform you. If you wish to take the risk of hiring a "Chair Specialist" then by all means do so. But remember the risks you will be taking in most cases will be with someone's life. Every year window cleaners die from falling. Make sure you hire a company that is fully trained, insured and knowledgeable in fall arrest systems.
In 2008 there were major accidents in NYC that made the news. Unfortunately there are no solid statistics for the ones who did not make the news.

New Jersey Window Washing has the expertise and skills to develop the right service plan for your property—incorporating the latest in methodology, technology, and safety standards. Since each building has unique architectural designs and characteristics, it is imperative that a thorough survey of the entire building, including the roof top, be conducted in order to develop an effective window cleaning maintenance program. The building’s height, age, architectural style, type of glass, tenants and location are key components we consider when developing an effective maintenance program to preserve the appearance and value of our clients’ investment.
Many building owners today have chosen to install more and more windows/glass in the construction of their buildings. Quite frankly a wall of beautiful glass is much more appealing then a wall of bricks or mortar. The glass ads to the value of the structure. Office buildings cost millions to construct. In most cases the windows can cost up to 10%, 20% or more in materials and labor to construction costs. But many times a building owner does not think of the maintenance of the glass until it's too late. To ensure the high quality glass you purchased performs to it's best. It's recommended that a cleaning be performed at least once per year, minimum. If you neglect your windows, it's no different then tossing money down the drain.
Most mid rise office buildings can be cleaned from the ground. We use the latest in window cleaning technology to provide your investment with the highest quality service. We use our water fed pole system. We are fully insured for and capable of cleaning windows up to 5 floors.
