David Saville, managing director of vertical at Principle Cleaning Services, said: “For our window cleaning operation to be the second largest in the UK in a highly competitive industry is significant, particularly when our portfolio currently only covers the London market.

The report highlights that the UK window cleaning industry is worth over £200m with revenue forecast to rise by almost 19% in 2021-22 and grow at a compound annual rate of 9.4% to £343.7m by 2026-7. The private sector accounts for just over 49% of industry revenue with the


public sector accounting for almost 31% and individual households just under 20t%.


The South East of England has the highest number of window cleaning operators with 18.4% of the market, the North West has 10.4%, the East of England and London has 10.2% and the South West, 10.1%. Scotland, which is the only region to require window cleaners to be licensed, has 8.3%, with other UK regions totalling 42.6%.
