Can't imagine a £300 price tag (Inc vat) will temp anyone, especially as they'll then have the pleasure of turning round and having to do them themselves. In 19yrs of shining, I've only ever knowingly lost one customer to one of these type ofDIY kits, tbf to him, he's still using it 4 yrs later.

Many years ago , Peter Fogwill sold a similar , simple hose/ DI cannister / pole set up for people wanting to do their own windows.
I remember window cleaners saying at the time it would kill the job  !!   ;D ;D

Nowt to worry about, most customers would never consider cleaning their own windows .
Some don't want to do their own housework or even wash the car or cut the grass.
People even pay others to walk the dog for them.

Personally I can't see tap pressure being high enough to clean upstairs Windows after water has passed through resin
