that was fun to watch. Don't think they would get away without detailing. Some missed half the window  ;)

I agree with Duncan there, some of them were missing 8" sections up the side, blonde bird was good she can do a few days a week for me but some of them others omg.

That unger guy needs to be selling some microfibre scrims to them.

Clever to watch but let's face it if those windows were actually dirty, they would look a mess because the lambs wool missed half of the window so he was blading a dry window. I'll just plod on in my usual methodical method!! Good for a bit of fun tho!
Thanks for sharing

The trad guys are always missing windows anyway so missing part shouldn't bother the customer.
That reminds me I've got some pics from my inlaws flats. Terrible window cleaning from Aspect in Glasgow.

Fun to watch, yes,  but totally impractical and impossible to keep this up over a working day. And what about charging about like a March hare up a ladder? Surely this sort of nonsense gives tradders a bad name. They didn't touch the frames either.

I take a lot of pride in my work, and as such, take my time to do a good job and my efforts encourage many favourable comments from satisfied customers. And no, I do not miss windows.  :P

Without trying to sound disrespectful, as I know Terry has been in this game a long time, but that was shocking!

You missed the bottom 1/3 of each window with the applicator.

If that's the standard of the world record then I'm game next year

All I'd have to do is run past all 3 windows, pretending to clean them and shout stop, winner!!!

Didn't he say there were two adjudicators? We're they asleep? Bribed perhaps.

It's a farce isn't it, let's be honest. Thats not a competition, its about as credible as a ... oh forget it!

Think I'll go back to my carpets.

Guiness book of records is a farce these days i know an old school mate who has the record for the longest scuba dive = all he did was sit on the sea bed at 10m for around 24hrs. A test of endurance yes but not a scuba dive imo.

Where was the soap then we'll have a competition  ;)
