the 3 storey houses on the right? I will be using a wagtail attached to a WFP and I certainly wouldn't want to climb that high on my ladder!

are you suggesting that they can't be cleaned with a wagtail?

I am. With difficulty anyway and with no guarantee of the quality of work.

My advise also, especially those house on the right hand side.

You might just get away with a SLX25 at full stretch but an SLX30 is best.
