In my case it's been twice in six months.
Last one was following a call back when a bird imprint had not been completely removed. I went back dutifully and cleaned it off but the bird had been carrying something waxy which had also left a mark, a mark I couldn't see easily because it was in the shadow of the eves. When I got another call back I initially thought the lady was becoming picky. But went back anyhow and did it again. The following month the lady said the mark was still there. I have to say the lady was actually very nice about the whole thing. So off came the ladder and up I went and what a mess. Don't know what the bird had been carrying but it wasn't dissolving in water and was just smearing over the glass. I appeared to have been making it worse. I had to do it four times by hand with soap and water before it all came off. Fortunately whatever it was hadn't been sticking to the brush or I might have had a few more complaints.
I know of some wfpers who no longer carry ladders but what would happen it situations like above?
