Remember the guy's on here who were convinced we'd get lynched for working during lockdown  ;D maybe it'll be the same for cleaning windows during a hosepipe ban, probably get mobbed and our vans set a light  ;D

I was working at 9am the very next day after Boris made 'that speech'.....

I wasn't. I thought it best to respect the situation and my customers. Money didn't come into it at that time. I went back 3 weeks later when it all started to calm down.

I knew some others window cleaners who had weeks off work too. In hindsight they said they should of just cracked on!👍😄

I was sceptical about electric hose reels, never felt manual reeling was a problem but im at that stage where i need to make things as physically easy as possible, so got one. Had to send the controller back recently as the wires were visible in 4 places on the curly wire so was without it for a week. Boy did i miss it. Wouldn't want to be without one now.

I've decided to get a professional system fitted to the van as my DIY system is playing up.

Looking at pure freedom. Who else should I consider?

Would like a two man, 750/800l with electric reels.

I've been reluctant to get electric reels as I dont find it particularly difficult to reel in manually but my two mates swear by them. Are they that good?

Cheers
Make sure your van has the required payload, that’s a lot of weight to carry.
I wouldn’t be without my electric reel.

Not that many out there, Grippatank, Ionics and PF is the 3 I know of. I have always had electric reels and they haven't missed a beat.

Thanks for the replies chaps. I use an agent.

No tenant horror stories but a couple of issues over the years where a tenant put a drill through a cable putting up an unauthorised shelf and on the agent's advice I ended up taking a couple of hundred out of his deposit as a friendly sparky did the repair.

Another (going through a divorce) lost his job and asked permission to get rent reduced for two months which was paid back over 12 months.

Things happen.
