How does having 2 electric reels when your a one man band make you quicker unless you've perfected a way of cleaning with 2 poles at the same time.! One of the reels is going to sit there redundant , and why on earth dont you have a manual reel as a back up and then just order another electric reel when the other one packs in. Given that several on here are saying the PF reel lasts for years, you could well find out its outlasted you if you become unfit to work, what a waste of money that would have been. Im all for having a few spares but thats just nuts.

I got a discount. Out today and made £400 because i was out all day. I don't see the problem, my van, reels, hotwater and light weight poles make me money. Why would I run with things that are not the best ? As I have said before, the more one invests in equipment the quicker one will become. Sooner or later the penny will drop and you will slowly realise what I'm talking about.
What's the point of the money sitting in the bank earning nothing, when it can be used to make me work quicker, its a no brainer as far as I'm concerned.

Personally I think wfp window cleaning has matured. Most things have been invented and tweaked for the regular,average window cleaner. It would be interesting if there was a way of installing a decent hot water system in an electric van as that is the next step forward we need going into the 2030s IMO.

Window cleaning is at saturation point where I work these days. So many new companies starting up and lots are actually franchise businesses. Real business minded people are getting into it. I even see billboards advertising window cleaning!

I see that trailer/board under the bridge every time I head that way, wonder if they get many enquiries from it?

I wouldn’t say it’s saturated, there’s plenty of startups about but that’s been the case for the last 10 years, I certainly wouldn’t want to be starting out today but my phones never been busier with new enquiries as these last few weeks.

Not many of the startups last anyway. I can count on one hand the amount of business that work my area that have lasted 10 years or more.

I have another one coming this week and will swap over at the weekend. They are great reels and I think they will last a long time. That's me got everything I want now and hopefully the dough will flow in so I can focus on a new van.
Why are you swapping it over when the one you have already is relatively new?

I have 2 SS Grippa reels but they don't have a chain. I haven't had them serviced so they are grinding a bit and one gave up so I swapped it over with the PF one. Going to swap over the other one at the weekend and run with 2 PF reels. I will fit 75m's of thermal hose and 30m's of pole hose on it which I have on the new reel. Will hold on to the Grippa ones and maybe give Oliver a present when he services my hotwater system. He fitted SS reels when I only paid for metal reels 6 years ago.
I’m sorry but over 2 grand on electric reels with the limited amount of customers you have is absolute madness IMO.

It is a bit extreme, to say the least.

Now if you were still using ladders,soap and a squeegee then window cleaning in the rain is just not great really. Glass gets dirty very quickly on a newly squeegeed window if rain hits it but not when using pure water. That's the beauty of WFP!

It's changed the game...

Yep, keep convincing yourself Daz😅
