Cleaner etiquette

We've had a cleaner for about 6 months. Recently got a new staff member who has been doing not quite as good a job as previous person. It's ok and totally better than nothing!
My question is can I ask for a deep clean in a bathroom that includes cleaning the windowsills, surrounds and the manky bits that are in the gaps between the inside and outside of the window? It's manky! Is that ok? They tidy as well as clean (which I love) but I don't know if it's ok to ask to wash the dirty bits of the windows too.
Any ideas? Thanks.

I actually quite liked that job, oddly satisfying Grin wouldn't mind one bit in fact I'd have probably already done it

The secret mucky bits are the best imo!!
Ask for the windows done in an extra hour...

My cleaner did this for me. Ask them to do it, the worst they'll say is no!

Thanks! Before the kids, I was super house proud. I'm now medicated for depression, working full time, no help and struggling.

I appreciate the advice.
