cladding job help, how long one man
« on: November 25, 2011, 09:11:06 pm »
how long for one man to clean this cladding, and how much water needed, every 6 months, I already do the windows and I sub the cladding out, never done this type of work cladding by wfp so any tips, I know how much I get paid and who much I pay out, but if that can be done with one man in a day or less I will do it myself

yes I can get water local, just needed to know it could be done in a day, because I get nowhere near the £370 you quoted

the reason I ask it takes two lads a day to do it, but they are slow, with van on a tracker so in no rush at the best of times, but if I can do it in a day or less I will be happy to do it myself ;)

without ecover ;D

I will mike, thinking on it, the worst that can happen is it takes an hour so to finish next day but I have to do the internal and external windows anyway so I can make it pay either way, just never tackled cladding jobs in the past I much prefer windows
