Ta, never thought to look there.
A days training with someone would be a good idea. Your welcome to join me for a day sometime, maybe window washers would be a better teacher as I get a bit sensitive at times. ;)

Best thing you can do is to find someone on here to help you on a one to one
Your head will start spinning if you post questions as to whats the best as you will get many different opinions.

Cheers sunshine. To be honest pal, im just desperate for the di vessel, i just dont want to pay through the nose for one. I need to get everything in the next couple days :'(

Good luck, you are going to hate it to start off. You will think what the hell have I done, what a waste of money. Then it will just click into place and you will think wfp is the best thing ever. Go for it

Danny, after a while arms and shoulders get used to it. Best bit is the amount of work you can get through on a day and not be knackered.
On ladders a school we do took 2 days to do, now with wfp we do it in a 10 hour day.

Danny, ladders didn't bother me to start, over 15 years on them, my legs were killing every day.I have been wfp for about 2 1/2 years, so much easy on body, no aches and pains.Make the change as soon as you can, you won't regret it in the end.

wfp is the best thing ive ever done for my business danny.nearly 2 years wfp now.DI vessels are not that expensive.buy a new one!
have you got tank,pump,controller,hose reel and pole?
get a 25ft SLX as soon as funds allow and an aqua-daptor and give yourself 6 months to get used to wfp cleaning.change all you work over to the pole straight away(tops only)then slowly clean most bottom windows over the next few months.
you will be SLOWER than trad for the first month or so but you will speed up over time.as for work being easier youll be able to get more work cleaned in a day but youll still be knackered when you get home!! ;D ;D ;D
best wishes

Alright daz, i know its going to be c**p at first but like everyone says it will get better.....hopefully ;D!
Im ordering it all today from gardiners but im going getting the 22ft clx. The reason im trying to do it on a tight budget is because me and the mrs bought the hairdressers she worked in a couple month ago so the savings are low :(
Anyway sod window cleaning, hows the mrs mate? She any better? Hope everything is ok!

Good move.
Although WFP is quicker, it costs a lot more to run. However, the extra running cost is nowhere near as high as the extra turnover once you get used to it. My best case scenario is a job that takes about one quarter of the time that it used to. That is exceptional but there are many jobs where I do them in literally half the time.

UPDATE
Ordered all the stuff now and so far without a hose reel and a battery iv spent just under £400! Im pretty chuffed ;D
