Well the outside won't be too bad with WFP, though the last time I looked, those windows hadn't been cleaned in a long time.

Don't envy you the insides though :-\

Lovely place to work, but hard work.

Still, I'm sure it's not a cheap job Roy. ;) ;D

They have a website, it cost about £120 to register and if you meet there requirements they will use you.

You are asked which 3 counties you will cover any jobs in those counties they will ask you to qoute.

By doing that the can cover the whole of the uk.

Retirement care decided for saftey reasons they would use them, However I had been using wfp two and half years ago. But thats life.

this is their website.

http://www.laddersfree.com

they use local window cleaners who have registered with them.
If a commercial client wanted an office block cleaning in Nottingham using WFP only and you were registered with Laddersfree, they would contact you with the details and you would go and quote at your terms. It is not sub-contracting.
