should i branch into wfp in this climate or do people think that with business closing down around the country would i struggle to find the work to pay for the system.

Going wfp does not have to be a 10,000k investment...you could your self up well for 1500 quid.....also remember thereis the 2nd hand market...loads of people on this site will have a no longer used tank and other bits and pieces...
Do your research, think smart and wfp does not have to cost the earth.
Now is always the right time..
Cheers

I agree !00%.... my set up cost less than £1500 and it works absolutely fine

I going to list my Vw transporter t4 lwb with kit if interested?

I did it 4 months ago and never looked back. Alot of guys on here have said how there picking up new work every day (including me)
If you have the vehicle already, your looking between £1000 - £1500 for a set up depending what you want.
I got the basic backpack, 25L containers, RO & water butts for under £700

We live in a temperate climate zone so you should be OK :) .
Serioiusly though, it is harder starting from scratch than it was (from what I'm told by those who are doing it). It's very achievable but you may need to persevere more than you would have a couple of years back.

works fine for residential. 99% of the time :)

I find it worth using for about 40% of my residential work. Bungalows, windows with plastic decor (which there are a lot of round my way), houses with access issues where I have to get the ladder off anyway - I find I'm better off using ladders. I find that houses with large windows are often twice as quick with wfp. Some windows take 2 ladder movements, wfp eats them up.

Im going wfp next week, getting a system fitted at sureclean ,
2 poles 2 hosereels, 2 di canisters.
90% of my work is 3bed semis,5% shops and offices, and 5%
large detatched houses. It will make the large houses easier
to reach and i will be looking for more of them if the semis dont
like new system. :)

My business is mostly residential. In the three and a half years since I went to WFP, I have nearly doubled my turnover - though not without more aggravation. Expenditure is a lot higher too. I get more time off too.

Now is deffinatly the best time to go into water fed pole, to be honest the sooner the better. obvisously the initial outlay is expensive but you can make it as cheap as you like (depending on if you buy a budget system for £650 or a professional system for £1500). there are many different ways to purify your water so try and get the one that suits you the best. You can either go down the DI route or the RO route. they will both give you pure water but your own personal circumstances will determine which is the best for you. :)

Is that a static system?
