Why This Matters for Window Cleaners

You clean 6-8 houses today. Mrs. Johnson's quarterly clean was supposed to be last week but it rained. Your 2pm cancelled because they forgot you were coming. You're trying to remember if the house on Oak Street has 24 or 28 windows for your quote callback tonight. By the end of the week you've cleaned 30 homes and half of them paid cash with no receipt trail.

Window Cleaners face unique challenges: Scheduling recurring cleans (quarterly, biannual) across hundreds of clients. Quoting window counts sight-unseen from phone calls. Rain cancellations cascading through the week. Tracking which homes are due for their next clean. On top of all that, Housecall Pro charges $99/month ($1,188/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median window cleaner earns $35,000/year. Software at $1,188/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.

Your Squeegees (multiple sizes, Ettore/Unger) is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.
