deffinately an idiot. for a start triple extension ladders, why?? i agree that sort of building wfp every time, high bays like that.
its a shame some give the rest a bad name
Some? That's the standard of most cleaners I see now.
All the good trad lads round here have gone WFP. The only trad lads I see are new starters and are worse than that.
I did some trad yesterday (nearly 3 hours) quality ped all over WFP.
I am seriously looking into doing some bottom windows Trad now.
dont say things like that the arsehole brigade will be here any mininute and bombard you with a tbousand comments about how trad is the devils work etc.. well i certainly wouldnt work like that, for a start it took him far too long, his ladders didnt look stable, bad technique, not safe at all
Unfortunately its true. I think trad does a better job to some degree and with the right work you can earn the same as wfp. The reason i went for wfp is;
Safety - That chap in the video looked like he was gonna wobble and fall off on the second ladder position.
Speed - He tried to be quick going up and down ladders, yet it undone him.
Sills and frames - I use clean water to clean sills/frames and are scrubbed not wiped.
The chap in that video is "new generation" of cleaners.
I have been WFP for around 5 years now and when i started it was HARD to get people to switch to WFP. This is because there was decent trad cleaners about. In my area, i was one of the first to swap over in busy villages. And my local competitors have now followed.
I have gone from an 2000 golf - 2001 boxer van - 2006 combo - 2014 transit custom all in the space of 4 years.
Other cleaners i see are doing the same.
I am not worried about losing work to trad cleaners as no decent ones exist now in my area. Now i am concentrating on keeping my WFP standard high.
With this i am trimming my work, keeping the best work, upping prices and no longer expanding. I will need to replace the work i drop or lose from them not accepting my price rises. I intend to stop all additional extra services and just solely concentrate on windows and just one other service i really enjoy
I have been watching a few WFP cleaners and i am now starting to see where they are poop and where they are better than me.
I "think" most guys hate trad on here as because there aint no decent ones left.
