MOre than likely you will see alot of them on ebay shortly, every tom dick and harry think they know how to clean and runa business, many give up that start this time of year, wait till it is cold and see if you get the same amount (something I doubt) I see this every year without fail.
Hope your doing well m8.

There have been about 180,000 window cleaners in the UK for the past ten years.
Because WFP helps you work faster then more work can be carried out in a day so window cleaners are traveling further to find more work, it just appears that more are around because they travel further distances.
Croydon has hundreds of Window cleaners but that doesnt stop firms traveling 50 miles from Brighton or Essex, Maidstone etc etc traveling here to carry out work, this just wouldnt have happened a few years ago. Likewise we travel to carry out lucrative contracts.

:) I was worrying about that, down here there seems to be loads as you say sign written van, pole systems... :-X
I used to look at the "Car washers" you know the hand wash you see in car parks /old garages and the like... Four bod's around a car!
What are they getting paid ???
If someone tells them were earning £8 per hour were in trouble ;) ;) ;)

dont worry about these just do a good job you will keep your custy , the more people that start wfp the better it will be as it becomes more common the better chance you have of picking more work up , if people dont see they dont no , if they see and use they soon pass word on on what a good job wfp can do .
