Very heavy if trying to move from panel to panel fully attached. Would take up a lot of room to store. Hire one as and when for £35 ish from HSS.
We look at them, they look through them.

Don't talk to me about conny roof cleans. I bloody hate doing them so now put in a silly high prices and still get the bloody thing to do. As damo said keep an eye out on fleebay as that is where I got an esi-dec from as new for £250  a few years back.

deffo keep an eye on ebay just bagged myself one for £65, had been looking for a few weeks. trick is not to search just for conservatory ladders, try aluminium ladders, multi ladders etc etc.

mine were described as....... Aluminium extending ladders - non slip feet....... when i picked them up the chap did`nt know what they were.  then the next day on ebay another set sold, exactly the same as i`d just bought, this time  listed as...... conservatory ladder......these went for £255 with 19 bids

do love a bargain   :D

Some of the firms that charge upwards of a thousand quid use them,some national company. They get up there with a toothbrush though.

Nice one...What make is it?

Speaking of bargains a few years back I was looking on fleebay for steam cleaners and in the listings came up a cobra cold water pressure washer including a flat surface cleaner. To buy new would cost over 2k so I thought I would keep an eye on it and bid at the last min as had a starting price of just £250 which was too good to pass up on.  It was basically listed in the wrong category so no one bid on it apart from me....Happy days  ;D

Cheers I've not heard of that make before but just googled it which looks ok
For only 65 squid you can't go wrong as long as it's in good condition. At that price you should make your money back on it on your very first job.   ;)

We had a job come through a few years ago for window cleaning. It wasn't that big and sounded like 2 monthly +

Turns out its easi-decs offices and it was only 2 miles away from my house lol.

Could have struck a deal. we did quote. But quoted not to get it DOH.

Easi-dec brand are built to last but downside is they are quite heavy and cumbersome to use and stow away.

Are you saying you are selling some?
If so let me know how much you are looking for them and what make they are.
