HI COULD ANYBODY ADVISE ME ME ON WHAT POLE TO USE AS IK HOPEFULLY GOING TO PURCHASE SOME BRUSHES FROM GAZ SO I NEED TO KNOW WHAT POLE THEY WILL FIT CHEERS ANDY

Hi Andrew,i would reccomend poles from here www.gardinerpolesystems.co.uk
I use them and find they are excellent,you can buy just the poles to suit you any length and sections,Gaz ;)

i allways recoomend UNGER poles
they last forever and the only thing to wear on them are the cones (these cost a few quid each) and they are cheap as chips
-
it all depends on what you want to spend
i have just bought the new facelift pole i pick it up at the weekend it is a 24ft pole but you can add and take sections away so you should only need one pole and some extra sections i will be using it as an 18ft pole 95% of the time

Gaz,
Do your brushes fit onto the poles sold via windowcleaningwarehouse ??? ive just got the 22' pole and it comes with an 11" vikan brush. but i need a brush for conservatory roofs, one for tuff / hard core work (first cleans etc) and one for big windows (a 14" + size) i got your prices (thanks for the email).
oh by the way has anyone come up with a brush to fit between the fake balcony iron work things on 1st floor french windows?????
Cheers fella

i dont get the pole until the weekend but i have had a look at one , the way it works is that with a normal pole there is something inside the pole that stops the pole from coming apart usually some velcro stuck on the end of each section
with the facelift pole there is a window at the end of each section and the last few inches of the pole sections are painted red ,so when you extend the pole and see the red you know not to pull anymore out and clamp.
the pole sections just pull apart so that you can add or take away sections all you have to do is re thread the hose back up the inside of the pole it would take about 5 mins to take a section out or put one in which is slower than changing to a longer pole but you in effect only need one pole and some extra sections
hope this sounds logical
