wow!
Take it u like the Hydraulic platforms!
Gettin plenty o business?
-
Yes we think they are the way forward in safe window cleaning at height.
We are very busy and have started to do a lot of work with smaller window cleaning companies when it comes to working at height.
-
so u prefer ur hydraulic platforms over the WFP then???????????

A guy was knocked out of a platform the other week in Manchester, a bus hit the machine or one of the legs, so I'm not sure they are the way forward.

oh yes for the work we carry out they just don't cut it we find one you cant get the pressure on the windows and for really soiled windows they dont clean them well enough, dont get me wrong they have there place and i have two van setups but finding that the larger companies are going off them because of the results.
-
mmmm, true....
interesting...........
-
Yes we do alot of work with the Federation.
We have a new peice in the next issue so keep an eye out for us.
-
Well we find (southcoast) ladders are banned on most commercial sites and with cost being a factory WFP winners hands down over heavy machinery every day
Andy
-
Yes this did happen but it was not down to the window cleaners and if a wfp user had been standing there he would have been in trouble as well..
-
right then, i'll need to invest in a cherry picker then eh?
LOL! ;D
-
people are moving away from ladders its a shame as it is the cowboys that keep falling off them and giving them a bad name.
You can hire from us and other hire firms a 3.5tn 20m machine for as little as £120 + vat so they are getting alot more competative but i guess it all depends on the results the customer wants at height.
-
put one on you xmas list ha ha the other work you can carry out will pay for itself in no time. Gutter Cleaning, Bird Proofing, Cladding Cleaning and hire to other contractors...
-
anyway lads and lases back to the website what do you think....
-
Website is looking good ;)
Who does the web design for you?
Andy
-
On your website the first page the cherry picker on the left looks to be 100 to 120 ft ,
how much to rent per day and per week before delivery,Im just trying to figure the cost effectiveness against rope access so a ball park no. would be fine
-
top quality website and service provision. I think MEWP will overtake WFP at commercial heights in the future.
-
Website is built and maintained by web solutions 4 U thay just keep improving it and coming up with new ideas wich is great takes a real burden of my shoulders.
the site as it stands has only cost about £650.00 it paid for itself within about 10mins.....

Look at JVs website. I bet those massive buildings aren't done every four weeks; if they were they wouldn't be really soiled (read his post).
I agree WFP isn't great on un-regular work of this nature, but for regular work; even every two months, it's cracking.
-
Most of our contracts our done on a two monthly basis and none our more than quarterly.
So wich is better the one clean every two months that may be slightly more exspensive but gives better results or a traditional clean to begin with, with one wfp clean every month?
Offering both service i know wich one would end up more expensive and not give such good results
-
the site as it stands has only cost about £650.00
I also do web design and £650 seems like a lot of money for your site - Although as I've said it does look good, and obviously works for you.
How do you promote it?
Andy
-
J.V don't take this the wrong way but that is far to much money for your site, sorry to say just being honest.
there is nothing complex about it and wouldn't really take any real time to construct. is £650 just for design and hosting or is there anything else included in the price?
there is also a broken link on the top left pic on your window cleaning page didn't know if you knew it was there
-
Thanks lads i will have a word with the guy tomorrow as all he has done is put my ideas, text and pictures on the site, there is another two pages to go on the service page but then it will be done.
What is a broken link think i will stick to what i know windows and not the ones on you computer haha
-
J.V all it is
is when the cursor hovers over the top left pic on the window cleaning section, once you click it it takes you to an unknown URL, (web page)
-
Thanks,
What you think it should have cost me?
-
I don't know mate, sorry to speak me mind but if i would of paid to much for something and didn't know anything about it i'd wish someone would tell me.
i think you could probably put that together in around 4 hours if you had all the content and pictures, did he type it all out for you or did you supply him all that?
-
thanks for the words lads i o you a favour as had a word with the guy didn't wanna give me a discount but is going to do four more pages for me now and also set up the website so we can sell the ettore products we tock through it e commerce i think its called..
Thanks again
-
I have a website for my small one man op window cleaning startup. Your website made me pig sick that it could be done so well. A very professional and well thought out effort. Rest assured that the small bit's that could apply to me I will be nicking. You don't know what my website's called do you? Good!
