The picture of the building with glass balconies is about 6 times bigger than the picture shows, i think it is 34 flats, the top ones are £600k each. They expect every piece of glass to be cleaned.
The pole
Heres how i rate it.
overall i am quite pleased, the sections are 6 ft so i can extend and lower it VERY easily whilst it is upright, i didnt want a pole i had to lay flat every time i needed to change the length.
For the price it is a good competent pole.
Over the next few weeks i am going to buy some more big poles as i can see a need for all types, like i dont need a 60ft pole to do a 45 ft job.
The reason i went for telescopic is that it is all there in my hands and can be adjusted rapidly, instead of going back and forth working out which sections i need, it is also what i am used to.
Also IN MY opinion a telescpic looks a lot more pro ad not as embarrassing when the building owner wonders what you are doing.
There is still a place for a modular, but not as a main big pole, i will still buy one but needed a telescopic first.
With a telescopic you just get it out of the van extend it, plug it in then away you go,
with a modular, you get your bits out , work out which peice goes where, lay your hose out, velcro it in place, put an end cap on, put the pole up then hope you have got the right height, if not put another piece on or take a piece of put another end cap on then you can do the window. If you want a foot adjustment because you are in a tight spot , then you just have to put up with the length you have got.
Then on to the next window, Have you still got the correct height ?
Like i said i will still buy a modular as they do have there place, but for me not an every day pole.
