Lady wanted her windows done in Hoopers Barton Frome today. I had a look but couldn't face the limited access in my van. Looked like most properties were filthy (and awkward) but might suit your set up?

Number 5, don't now if she was after a one off - I clean a reletive of hers and the whole family seemed to want it done.
Looks like there is some potential there, because of the design of the place I don't think many conventional outfits would take it on. Houses backing on to Castle street are filthy too.
Ideal backpack jobs I think.

Hi dale,
I pull a trailer with 8 x 25 l drums plus the 125 on the back of the bike. This lasts 3 to 4 hours then I refill from the truck that the bike is hauled about with.

Cheers kevin.

Kev, how the hell do you get through so much water? I use 250 litres a day max on really compact work.

I start at I/2 8, finish at 1/2 5, do upto 30 3 beds a day. Can't seem to use less than 600 litres a day. I use a good flow rate but only spend 10 to 15 seconds a window. When pete fogwill releases his new pole I shall use his autobrush which should save probably 100 liters a day

What's your secret?
