id love to go wfp but id have to build up a whole new buisiness, the vast majority of my rounds would be a pain wfp, alot have over garage roof rear access  so id need ladderd anyway, alot are big houses spread out so id be forever reeling in and out and moving and parking,  and iv got a few rounds where i do 15 fronts and go round and do 15 backs  through a field and a small wooded area behind the houses with no vehicle acess and no hose long enough lmao. i do alright trad make a good living and tske my time and be safe, in my area theres me and 1 wfp guy i regularly take work off him because custies arent happy lol

Joey take what you read about WFP on here with a pinch of salt, in my area I wouldn't advise anybody to buy into it which is
a shame because its a lot safer than working on a ladder.
I'm still a WFP'er because I spent a small fortune on the equipment and there was no way I wasn't going to get my money
back on it or make it work.
I had to dump a massive amount of good paying work just because I couldn't get them to a decent standard using WFP quick enough.
The problem with WFP is the frames and where water can gather in those frames, get enough problem ones on your round
and it will be hell from the start.
Most WFP guys don't last long in my area for that reason and most traditional guys wont touch it for the same.

going wfp over 5 years ago has been the single best thing ive ever done in window cleaning.after a few teething troubles in the first few months its been fantastic for picking up new work,easier working day,a lot more money earnt per year and a lot safer.
price higher/work harder!

I don't doubt that for one minute Dazmond it also works for me and the same for the other successful WFP guys on here.
I can only comment on what I see around me and on what I have learned while doing this job.
