HANDS-ON WINDOW-CLEANING WORKSHOP · SYDNEY

Learn professional window-cleaning fundamentals through live, hands-on training.

Build a practical foundation by training on glass of different shapes and sizes in real working environments—the kind of glass, frames and conditions you are likely to encounter on actual jobs. Kevin demonstrates each technique, observes your movements and provides personalised guidance as you practise.

Submitting the form doesn’t book a workshop or require payment.

WHY HANDS-ON TRAINING MATTERS

A video can show the movement. It can’t see yours.

Online demonstrations can be useful, but they cannot respond to your hand position, tool angle, water control or the adjustments that will improve your technique.

03

Uncertainty on paid work

It can be hard to know whether your technique and workflow are ready for a real customer’s glass.

02

Unnecessary effort

Small issues with grip, angle and movement can make the work slower and more tiring than it needs to be.

01

Inconsistent results

The same movement can leave a clean finish on one pane and lines, water or missed edges on the next.

A PRACTICAL FOUNDATION

What you can work towards in one focused session

The goal is not an overnight transformation. It is to make your practice more deliberate by giving you feedback you cannot get from working alone.

01

Solid fundamentals

Learn core techniques and efficient movements that create a strong foundation for more consistent results.

02

Better tool handling

Practise applicator, squeegee and pole control with direct guidance.

03

Cleaner workflow

Develop a more deliberate sequence from preparation through to detailing.

04

Mistake awareness

Learn to recognise common causes of lines, water and inconsistent edges.

05

A base to build off

Leave with a practical foundation you can continue developing after the day.

Results vary with your starting point, participation and practice after the workshop.

IS IT RIGHT FOR YOU?

Built for people who want practical guidance — not inflated promises

The half-day format works best when your goals match what practical foundational training can realistically deliver.

Strong fit
You already clean—or want to add window cleaning to paid work

Existing and self-taught window cleaners, cleaners and small operators who have an immediate use for better technique and workflow.

Speak with Kevin first
You’re exploring a career change

Complete beginners are welcome when they understand the workshop provides a foundation and further practice may be required.

Not the right promise
You expect instant mastery or guaranteed income

This is not accreditation, job placement or a guarantee of customers, employment or business results.

HOW THE WORKSHOP WORKS

See it. Try it. Refine it. Repeat it.

Kevin’s role is to observe the details you cannot easily see yourself and help you adjust while the movement is still fresh.

CURRENT HALF-DAY WORKSHOP PROOF

David · half-day course participant

“Confidence is probably the number one thing.”

David arrived with some self-taught experience. Through guided practice and personalised feedback, he developed greater confidence and a clearer understanding of the techniques he could continue practising.

FOUR-DAY BEGINNER COURSE

Declan · complete beginner

Declan began the four-day course without previous window-cleaning experience. Through repeated demonstrations, guided practice and personalised feedback, he developed greater control, confidence and understanding of professional window-cleaning techniques.

CLEAR EXPECTATIONS

A practical beginning—not a shortcut around experience

This workshop is non-accredited and is not working-at-heights training. It does not guarantee mastery, employment, customers, income or a complete business setup. Continued practice is expected.

YOUR TRAINER

Practical instruction grounded in real window-cleaning work

Kevin Galea brings day-to-day field experience into a small workshop where he can watch each participant work, explain what he sees and adjust the session to the group in front of him.

Kevin’s approach is practical: demonstrate the movement, observe what you are doing, explain what may be affecting the result and help you repeat the technique with greater control.

Small by design

Workshops usually run with two to three participants so observation and personalised guidance remain central to the day. You register individually—there is no need to organise a group.

TOOLS AND PREPARATION

Window-cleaning equipment for beginners

A practical starter guide to the core tools, what each one does and what can wait until later.

  • You should leave with stronger fundamentals, better awareness of common mistakes and a practical base for further practice. The workshop is not a promise of mastery; results vary with your starting point, participation and practice afterwards.

  • Yes, if you understand that a half-day workshop provides a foundation rather than instant professional mastery. Kevin will review your starting point and goals before a date is confirmed.

  • You register individually—you do not need to organise a group. Workshops usually run with two to three participants. If only one participant has paid, Kevin may choose to proceed at his discretion, but a private session is not guaranteed. If the workshop does not proceed, you may wait for another date, transfer or receive a full refund.

  • With seven or more days' notice, you may request a full refund or one transfer. With less notice, a transfer may be offered, and any refund may be reduced only by reasonable, unrecoverable costs. If your place is filled, you will receive a full refund. These terms do not limit rights available under Australian Consumer Law.

  • Training is held in Parramatta CBD. Exact meeting details and travel guidance are supplied after the workshop is confirmed.

  • No. Professional equipment is supplied for workshop use. You may discuss bringing your own tools if they are relevant to your practice.

  • Depending on participant goals and the time available, Kevin may introduce workflow, suitable work, quoting principles and how the skill can become a paid service. The practical core comes first.

  • No. It is practical, non-accredited skills training. It is not working-at-heights training and does not guarantee employment, customers, income or a complete business setup.

  • Practical window cleaning involves standing, side-to-side movement, reaching, gripping tools, controlling poles, bending and repeated movement. Tell Kevin before payment if you would like to discuss an access, communication or learning adjustment. You do not need to provide unnecessary medical detail.
