I worked along side my uncle for a year to gain some experience and soon realised one of the main things is pricing! He bought a few small rounds and when he tried increasing the prices a lot of them left or were messers.
So from that I learned to price high but give them a great job i.e windows, doors, ledges and frames, However if your Traditional then a lot of them don't touch the frames?
personally I started with only £400 worth of work full time and just kept gaining more and more work and 2 and a half years later I have £1500 minimum a month coming in(that may not sound a lot but I have worked alone, and never canvassed, only leafleted. And the first year I didn't really have my head screwed on I only did what I had to do.
I would say A lot of Trad lads always clean frame, The guys with Pole don't often clean frames but I know alot home customers don't like the WFP stuff.
I wasn't bee sarcy mate I generally only see the TRAD lads round here doing the windows only
Up here alot WFP lads clean glass only.
I always say 'I am a window cleanner' so I clean the Window Glass & Frame and I am not a Glass CLeaner.
Glass cleaner and window cleaner both do the same thing.lol
Nah anyone can clean glass but a Window Cleaner you need to have that Magic Zist in cleaning windows and not having streaks down it. Or as one my customer said 'I could get a Brush and clean my windows' I then said 'Your welcome to try and I sure you still call me to clean them'
He would do a better job with a brush.
For his house I do use WFP due to he got a 3 story house.
