Simon, have you had any success with add ons such as gutters and fascia cleans? Is your area (Swindon i think) saturated with cleaners?

Personally i wouldn't do it - especially the first clean 'cos it's the hardest of all for wfp then when they dump you you'll be absolutely gutted.

I recall a guy on the forum called Justin was going to give it a try for a limited time.  No idea how it worked out though.  If I were going to do something like that, I would probably offer the third or fourth clean free.  That way, at least you have already had a chance to cut your losses if the customer ditches you after the freebie.
