Window cleaner Tom Banks is opening Four Seasons Window and Gutter Cleaning Service. He provides free estimates and can be reached at 507-5004.

With over 17 years of experience, Tom Banks is bringing a much-needed business to the Warren County area.

Banks’ family operated business, Four Seasons Window and Gutter Cleaning Services, will open Oct. 1 offering window and gutter services to the residential and commercial buildings. He also wants to extend his services to real estate agencies and their clients.

Banks owned a similar business in Pennsylvania but moved to McMinnville during the summer. “I am happy to be in this area,” Banks said. “Everyone has been very friendly since we moved here and I am looking forward to getting out in the community and working with folks.”

The six-day-a-week service will be performed by Banks and his son who is also moving to McMinnville from Pennsylvania. Banks hopes to expand his services at the beginning of next year with the addition of two more workers.

“Spring of next year I was hoping to hire a couple of folks part-time in the community for around 35 hours a week and give back to the community a little bit,” Banks said.

Banks added that his rates will be affordable and no job will be too small. “We are small enough that no customer is too small,” Banks said. “If we had a little place that had three windows then we would do it. If we had a place that had 100 windows then we would do that too.”

Along with affordability, Banks is offering quality work. “We will be able to offer them more time and a more personalized service than someone who is larger than we are,” Banks said. “We like to do quality work and show the people they are getting good customer service.”

Banks estimated that a ranch-style house with 12 windows would cost about $35 for the cleaning of the inside and the outside. He added that rates will vary from house to house depending on what the owner wants done.

Along with the affordable rates, Four Seasons is offering free estimates on all jobs. With the free estimates, consumers can also look for coupons and flyers in local papers. “We will get to them in a timely fashion so that they are not standing around waiting,” Banks said.

Banks will also be donating 5 percent of his monthly earnings to the Red Cross and the Salvation Army for a year in remembrance of Hurricane Katrina.

Fours Seasons will be based out of McMinnville. Services will begin Oct.1. Banks can be reached at 507-5004 or at (931) 349-9002. Banks added that he can be reached 24/7.
