Rochester, N.Y. Surveillance video shows the moments thieves stole a car from Dewey Auto & Tire early Tuesday, with a van slamming in reverse into other cars in the lot.

Shop manager James Baker worked next to a shattered window Tuesday. He said that's how the thieves got in and stole keys before taking the van.

"They tried to get into our front door," Baker said. "It has a security tinted film on it, and they couldnt get through there and quit and then they came into the other side window here and just reached in and grabbed one key they could grab, and it was blocked in. And they made their space to get out of here by ramming into other cars to get out."

Police later spotted the van, leading to a pursuit that ended with the suspects crashing into the Edgerton R-Center on Backus Street.

Officers caught one suspect but are still looking for another.

Meanwhile, Baker was left to clean up the damage which he estimated at $10,000.

"Parked cars that got hit and when they ran and whatever damage they hit when they crashed after here, my damage," Baker said. "It's a lot of people besides the person directly affected."

Owner Dave Baker said he hopes those responsible are held accountable.

"I hope that the higher-ups back (police) and prosecute them for these crimes instead of letting them go," he said. "(Otherwise) it just gives you a green light to do anything you want."

An Australian professional cleaner has revealed the 'worst' spot to clean after working on thousands of homes.

The cleaner, who goes by @cleanlikeapro online, claimed that mirrored splashbacks in kitchens were a 'nightmare' to maintain well.

A splashback is a layer installed above and behind the sink and stove to protect walls from moisture, food splatters, grease, and oil.

The woman warned against falling victim to their pristine mirrored appearances in showrooms because the reality of the feature is much worse.

Mirrored splashbacks are extremely hard to keep spotless as they reflect every speck of dust and water stain back onto the room.

The professional cleaner was secure in her opinion.

'I don't care how good these look in a showroom - do not, under any circumstances, let anyone convince you that a mirrored splashback is a good idea,' she said.

The woman posted a video of the dirt and grit the mirror holds onto - and how a few spots that would have disappeared into a marble feature instead make the whole kitchen look filthy.

'Mirrored splashbacks are a nightmare, especially when there is a stovetop or a sink that backs onto it.'

'As someone who has cleaned thousands of homes, and seen hundreds of mirrored splashbacks, these are never a good idea,' she said.

Her main issue stemmed from the potential for streaks and wipe marks despite being clean.

'I don't care how clean you are, these will always look awful,' the professional claimed.

Many agreed with the cleaner's opinion and shared bad experiences with mirrored splashbacks.

'I can't think of anything worse than looking at myself while doing dishes or cooking,' a woman said.

'I have one and as someone who suffers with OCD they are the worst.'

'Any splashback that isnt tile is a terrible idea unless you like cleaning 24/7.'

'They're only nice right after cleaning.'

But others defended their decision.

'I completely disagree,' a woman argued. I have them and they are pristine.'

'I love mine. It's easier to wipe clean with window cleaner versus scrubbing grubby grout and tiles.'

Professional cleaner reveals the feature she'd never have in her house: 'It's a nightmare to clean' - Daily Mail

A housekeeper's heart raced when she noticed her car was missing Monday morning from outside an Agoura Hills home she was cleaning.

The surprises didn't end there for Mayra Perdomo.

Perdomo said she looked out the kitchen window and was stunned to see her car wasn't where she parked it in front of the home. Detectives later told her the thieves drove to a nearby shopping center and robbed a bank.

"When they tell me that, I was in shock," Perdomo said. "My car is an old car, Dodge Neon 2002. I can't believe it."

The car, which Perdomo uses to get to her job and take her son to school, was recovered near the bank, but she said it was heavily damaged. The thief took items with personal information that she had inside the car, Perdomo said. It also contained her cleaning supplies, and her son's car seat and football gear.

No arrests have been reported in the car theft and bank robbery, which was reported around 10 a.m. Monday at Citi Bank on Kanan Road in Agoura Hills. The FBI provided NBCLA with security camera photos of a robber, who handed a note to the teller and left with money in what authorities said they believe is Perdomo's car.

The man, wearing a face mask, was dressed in a brightly patterned sweatshirt.

Homeowner Michelle Norris called 911 after the car theft. She is attempting to raise funds to help replace Perdomo's damaged car.

"This is really devastating for her and her family," Norris said. "I really hope they are able to find this person. It's really going to be difficult for us to sleep at night knowing this person is still on the loose."

The national average cost to clean windows is $120-$170. Typically, window washing for commercial spaces costs less per window than residential window washing, but has a higher overall price because the greater number of windows. Commercial window cleaning companies may charge a standard rate per window for example, $3 to clean the exterior only, with a higher rate of $4 or $5 to also clean the interior. There may be an additional charge, such as an extra $1 per window, for scrubbing off water stains or deep-cleaning window tracks. Double-hung windows require more labor and will therefore cost more to clean. Companies may charge a flat rate, such as $8 per double-hung window or $9 per French door, to account for the added work. Building height will play a factor in window washing costs. Standard cleaning for one- and two-story buildings will typically stay within the same range, but cleaning high-rise windows may entail special safety permits and equipment, which would increase costs. Your location will also affect window washing costs. Smaller towns and areas with a lower cost to do business will have lower window cleaning rates than large cities.

The 10 Best Window Cleaning Services in Rocklin, CA 2022

Windows are one of the first things you see when you approach a building, but theyre not something that is regularly cleaned. The job can often seem daunting, especially if you have a two-storey house or a business with multiple large windows. But whether you have a home or office, cleanliness is important, and professional window cleaning can help make your glass shine.

There can be lots of reasons for cleaning your windows. You may want a full spring clean, with carpets and oven included, or if your lease is finished, you might need to do vacate cleaning. Either way, thoroughly clean windows can be the finishing touch that makes your house feel truly spotless. Jims window cleaners are professionally trained and available Australia-wide for residential window cleaning, so you can enjoy clean glass no matter which part of the country youre located in.

Clean windows are about more than just looks. Over time, glass can become dull due to oxidation, dust and hard minerals, making your home or office appear dark. In addition, the dirt, dust and grime that can build up on glass may contain allergens. Cleaning your windows regularly gets rid of this buildup, helping to keep you healthy. Jims window cleaning services can also clean screens and tracks, getting rid of any built-up dirt and keeping your windows parts moving smoothly.

Residential window cleaning not only makes the outside of your house look better, it can also improve indoor living spaces. Clean windows let in more natural light and make rooms look bigger and more appealing. As a bonus, spotless glass lets you appreciate your view of Australia, whether you overlook the beach, the bush, or just the kookaburra sitting in your gum tree.

For business owners, commercial window cleaning can bring many benefits to an enterprise. If you own a retail space, clean windows allow people walking past to see what you offer, encouraging that foot traffic to walk in the door. In offices, large, clean windows can actually improve the health and sleep of workers, with one study finding that more exposure to sunlight during the day, even through windows, improves sleep at night.

Cleaning windows can be a big job. Most homes and businesses have a lot of windows, and they can be hard to reach. It may be difficult for you to clean the top of floor-to-ceiling glass, or you may not be comfortable climbing a ladder to clean windows on a second floor. This is one reason why window cleaning is often put at the bottom of the weekends task list. Booking a professional means that the job will get done.

Its especially important to not leave streaks on the glass when you need customers to be drawn to a window display. Its equally important to get rid of all the grime when your home is on the market. A professional window cleaner is experienced at cleaning in the hard-to-reach places, which means youll be satisfied once the job is done.

Finally, professional domestic window cleaners bring their own equipment, so you dont need to go to the hardware store for squeegees and lint-free towels that rarely get used for other chores. For Jims window cleaners, squeegees and cleaning solutions are the tools of their trade, so you can be certain theyre using the best. Plus, they have the equipment to ensure all the cleaning is completed safely.

If youre thinking, its time to find a window cleaner near me, start your search with Jims.

They offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee and supply all the cleaning equipment and products. Every cleaner is police checked and insured before they start cleaning for your peace of mind. Window cleaning prices differ greatly depending on the size and difficulty of the job, but Jims window cleaners can talk you through the process and give you a free quote.

What is the best thing to clean windows with?

Each window cleaner has their favourite solution for cleaning windows. Commercial window cleaning products can do a good job, while a mix of water and white vinegar is a long time favourite of homeowners and professionals alike. A small amount of dishwashing liquid added to a bucket of water can help remove grease and grime. For great results, try mixing the water, vinegar and dishwashing detergent together to add extra sparkle. Just be sure to rinse well afterwards.

How do you get streak-free windows?

The best way to remove streaks from a window is with a squeegee. Make sure the rubber blade is in good condition. Professional window cleaners change their blades regularly to ensure a streak-free finish. Work from the top down, in either a horizontal or vertical stroke. After squeegeeing, any leftover streaks can be removed with a lint-free towel or a chamois cloth, although newspaper or clean paper towels can work in a pinch. Particularly dirty windows may need two rounds of cleaning. For best results, work on a cool, cloudy day so the soapy water doesnt dry before its wiped off.

Are our window cleaners licensed?

Window cleaners in Australia dont need a special license to clean windows; however, all our window cleaners are fully-trained and run licensed businesses. More importantly, each one is fully insured and police checked, so you can feel secure when you invite them into your home.
