FAO Matt - sapphire windows...

i see you re branded and changed the business name ...

fair play to you mate, seems in business now that not many companies use the old style approach to names..
seem to use a word/words that customers can remember ....

just imagine if mcds was called burger services or something like that.

i see a few on here are doing this purple rhino, blue monkey ...

i was thinking of doing it but there is a story behind my company name, so id rather use a large slogan in front of business name if that makes sense.

bet you came up with loads of random names before making the final choice.

Yeah I had an A4 sheet both sides, just with potential names, but Sapphire for stood out the most.

I am still trading under MB Window Cleaning down in Essex, but I have moved back up to Leicester and travel down to Essex twice a month to help sort out the round down there.

im thinking of a sort of slogan idea.

something like this:

Do your windows need some TLC? and the same for con roofs.

someone told me to use "M.E.C.A." - Mid Essex Cleaning Association.
with the slogan "We are the ones the muslims turn to."

Martin you can't go wrong with WCW backpacks, I have had the V1 from them since July last year and it is still going strong. I wear it on my back as I find this the easiest way to carry it, I find the weight of the backpack is spread over your shoulders, back and legs. you wouldnt carry a concrete fence post down my your side, you would have it on your shoulder.
Just stated that before everyone starts saying its too heavy etc.

Martin I don't have this backpack but if it is the same as the V1 then its easy to turn on and off, I use a tap and the pressure switch kicks in.
are you using a van or car?
I ask this as I have a van and find it easier to put on this way.

im just pd off with hoses ... gardens are getting smaller but with more sh@t in them!!

v2 looks the same to me mate - well from the site pic anyway. tap and flow controller to.

so i guess you have at at the back of the van and put it on from there then, slightly higher i get that.

Martin I use it more than my van mount as there's no tangles from hoses etc.
