hi awl

the wfp has cost approx £3,000 plus van but that was for two vans each run two hoses and poles of different sizes for a woman to use wfp you need a variety of pole sizes or you will be pulling muscles you didnt know you had (unless you look like arnol swatz a thingy).

and thanks to everyone for wishing brad well hopfully he will be back to work in 12-18 months but never up a ladder again even for access.

regards Belinda
 ;Dthanks for the imfo, belinda. and glad your son is on the mend,
because we do only domestic at the mo, would a trolley be better for us and keep a static tank at home?

My partner is called Chris, we have been working as a team since we got married in 1967 . Her favorite one liner is in answer to the fellas that say "Hmm a lady window cleaner" :o  she replies  "What do you think we have been doing for the last 200 years "   ;)
 There is a big market out there that the suppliers are missing, for a lady' version of a wfp system, she is in remission, so I am developing light weight equipement for her - a "Featherlight 26ft 1.5lb carbon fibre pole and an electric trolley with smaller containers. These can also be used by my 11 year old grandson !!
I think us guys better watch out because once the ladies get their teeth into window cleaning we had all better watch out because my wife does a better and more concientous job than me, not faster but better. Your next compettitor could be a lady. :)

My other half works with me 4 days a week and my customers love her. She is only 4ft 10" so WFP is a must for her. She only does ground floor at the moment but I have made a carbon lightweight pole just in case she fancies trying the tops.
I really miss her on the days she doesn't work.
I'll have to get her driving so that she can carry on when I retire. Dai
