(http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/1372361168_Photo-0035.jpg) this place is on a busy narrow road, i was asked for a quote but think im going to say no way
out of interest would you lads bother with it ?
-
Trad no
Wfp yes
-
why would you say no?
-
Never turn work down.
Price it to make it worth your while.
Turn up really early so there's no (or little) traffic.
Stick a high vis on, put a couple of cones out.
Bosh. $ in your hand.
-
i can only put my ladder on the road ,in effect traffic would have to stop. i dont like hassle , then theres pedestrians ,towns full of oldies who would fall hard n fast ,and its on a hill .
how much would u charge? its a solicitors office
-
Do it early enough & there won't be any traffic-commercial so it'll be empty.
Charge top top dollar cause no-one else will do it.
Put cones out-no one argues with cones.
-
50 quid? every month 30? if it was up a regular street id do it for 20
-
Yeah, solicitors ain't short of a few quid are they?!
£50 a month. Every month. If they say no-who cares. If they come back in a few months cause they can't get them done make it £60.
Jobs you don't really want, really have to be worth your whole doing them.

Is that you call a screen shot?

Is that you call a screen shot?
yes indeed ! ;D
-
do it early, dont think 50 quid though, looks like less than half hour
-
I wouldn't want to work off a ladder in the road, at any time.
You'd have to close the road for me, Bobby.
-
I do stuff like this all the time wfp, and if there is no room to park backpack ! £20
trad with ladders though ? sod that, all them little panes = pain
-
Why the piece of paper? You could have pointed with your finger?
(close the road)
-
Jobs like that i would do as early as possible in the day . Mike
-
yup always good to have a few "commercial" jobs u can do before 8am then onto residential ... fills the days takings up nicely .... £20 a month ... wfp though ... would take me under 10 mins I rekon

Direct the traffic round your ladder with the arrow on the paper, held up by the big hand.
-

;D ;D ;D thats not as crazy as it sounds. i was thinkin that if we blocked the street one of my workers could hold up a big bit of card saying "5 minutes" then a minute later hold one up saying "4 minutes" etc etc this might stop drivers getting angry on me
