i know 2 guys who are pushing 70 and they still put a good shift in most days!(both on ladders too!).

what poles do you use?and hose?

you want extreme poles and brushes and 6mm microbore to make your working day easier.

do you drink too much and smoke?

overweight?eat a lot of junk food?

all these things can make a massive difference to the way you feel.

if you have plenty of work id employ someone part time and go down to a 4 day week.work less hours a day(say 9am-3pm)if your feeling the strain.

if you havent already got extreme poles and brushes.this is the way to go mate.you should be easily able to afford an extreme 25 and a few brushes.buy a carbon gooseneck or two and you ll be laughing.these poles are so light and easy to use.


best wishes

Dazmond thanks or that and I can't disagree at all with what you say yes I do smoke not a lot,have a few beers, but I do have a good diet
I use a clx 22 as regular pole,thinking of changing to an extreme,
 But your spot on in what you say and thanks

I work part of your area Colin.  I'm not after employment but if you are considering passing work on, maybe we could come to some arrangement?  Obviously, if you have your heart set on expansion, this won't be appropriate, but just thought I would put another possible option out there.  I'm possibly about 50-80 customers light about now but filling the gaps gradually.

 Hi thanks for that,not sure what to do at the moment,I'm keen to expand but not to employ (due to the grief) also I have son that I would like to give my business to,only problem is he's only nine,and thinks he's going to play for chelsea

I hear we are a bit short of players at Crawley Town

he won't go to crawley mate,he thinks he's to good for them,little does he know he will end up a window cleaner.
Are you based in crawley? I was there today working,what's your company name ? Always good to chat to local guys

[Mick Kent]

Colin, your too young to worry about that yet mate!! Start to worry in 10 years time me old muck.
As for employing.......good luck lol. Mostly All end up being either puff heads, liers, or thieving barstewards like i found or worse off a mix of all 3.

Yes I live in Crawley but work about a 15 mile radius around it too.  I just call my business plain, boring old Coleman Services (David Moyes is a spoof name obviously).  I did a bit in Crawley this morning (Town Centre followed by Maidenbower) but spent the rest of the day in Copthorne.  I find that large chunks of Crawley aren't worth bothering with due to the "terraced house with no rear access" layout of the older parts of the new town.  However, I do have a fair bit of work around the estates that are accessible.  Long ago I gave up on the idea of only being able to clean when someone's at home.  I have a black van with plain white lettering.  I'm not into all that fancy marketing stuff.  I prefer a "does what it says on the tin" style whilst wowing the customer base with my magnetic and charismatic personality .

I will only be in Crawley for very early morning work before departing to Smallfield and Copthorne.
Yes, I do know Frank.  I've done a few jobs for him as he doesn't do pole work.  Although I didn't hang out with him, I remember Frank when we were kids.  It wouldn't surprise me if we've already bumped into each other around as I do a bit in Horsham and the outlying districts like Southwater and Slinfold.

Franks a good lad,he's with me in couple of weeks,he done insides. For me on a couple of large jobs.

Well done, keep it going regardless of age.  As you get older I am sure this work helps keep you active, fit and healthy.  If you stop, and become a settee bum, then that's "one foot in the grave"   

Oh, if you employ, be just be careful about age discrimination laws.

Funnily enough, I do remember him mentioning that he did some insides for someone with a pole system.  I think it was probably a year or two back that he said about it.  I should be around the Horsham area for part of next week.  By Horsham area though, I'm including Mannings Heath, Slinfold, Southwater, Clemsfold and Rusper.  Apart from a bit of estate work, it's dotted around but it's a decent earner because I made sure that I priced OK.
If you want to hook up for a coffee and maybe a business chat while I'm down there, just say so and I'll try to work around it.
