Hi the WFP suits all jobs well and is a lott quicker. I have some industrial work, but the draw back is they like 30 days to pay.  :'(So I have a large domestic round which is instant monney. :) So go for it you will not be dissapointed. :) :)

WFP will be essential for securing commercial contracts that currently involve work at height, we have just secured a WFP contract from a firm that were using a harness system to clean.  Customer liked the low maintenance of WFP, means they don't need to get their harness hooks checked and certified yearly now.

Hi I use one 6ft that extends to 12ft plus your hight also a 18ft plus your hight and a 30 ft one this I only use about 4 times a month. I do have a very short  pole but find the 6ft will quite often will reach most standard 3-4 bed houses, and the close it down to 6ft for ground level.  :) A friend makes trolly units, he's got one on ebay at the moment, it includes brushes. Look under window cleaning, if you need any help just ask :) :)
