seen this a few days ago, he is anti wfp, anti anyone that can charge less than him, anti anyone that is faster than him, anti anyone with a large round,sounds very bitter and his only conclusion that everyone else is on the fiddle, he should consider speeding up and doing a better job before accusing everyone else

He sounds quite well balanced - chips on both shoulders.

The part where he claims traditional is better than wfp...
clearly demonstrates his 1 years worth of window cleaning knowledge.

Whats wrong with him say Trad is better than wfp? Lots of my customers prefer  it to wfp because I'm rubbish at wfp.

Fixed that for you Mike G!  ;D

I knew I'd missed something out!

"Some" customers may prefer it. But i'll think you'll find that wfp when used correctly, it will provide better and longer lasting results.

"Some" customers still clean there inside windows with vinegar and newspaper.. point here is the customers are not experts in window cleaning.

Sorry but I just dont buy the better and longer laster results answer, how can it possibly be better? I can go squeegee a window and leave it spotless, so can wfp I agree but how is that better? Equal maybe but not better. As for longer lasting, really? I'm not sure on that, once a bird craps on the window etc it's dirty and regardless of wether it was done trad or wfp its got poop on it and thats that. And as for the some customers still clean the insides with vinegar and newspaper, thats almost as bad as the wfp only guys using a spray bottle and microfibre when an applicator and sqeegee would be so much better!

That said having had a look at the guys web page I think most of what he says should give you the hump and lots of it way b4 the part where he claims trad is better than wfp. Anyone who charges less than a tenner is rubbish for instance.......please

In my opinion there will always be room for both wfp and trad, and a good window cleaner should be able to offer both these services.

This made me laugh straight after slagging wfp off....

I am sorry to say that I can not clean three storey properties due to the health & safety aspect.  Even if I clean them I would not take the risk.  So anyone wishing to use my services I am sorry to say that I can't carry out that work.  What I can personally recommend is using the services of  Alan who  of A & L Window Cleaning Services.  He uses a Water-Fed Pole System, but that is the only option for working at that height.  He is the only person I will put my name and reputation to using and who I know maintains his equipment, which will prevent scratching to U.P.V.C and glass.

There is room in this business for many views  and many opinions. He has his, leave him to get on with them.
In three years time he will be WFP and extollling the virtues. Leave him alone, he is just getting himself established.

Do you mean cat flaps?


I do as well, for an old lady who always asks. Perhaps he's not that bad, going that extra mile just to keep the customer happy

Met the guy while doing a job . He even had the cheek to put leaflet through door of house I was cleaning. He then started telling me how crap wfp was & that we make stone cills dirty with our water & crack plastic window trims with our brush stocks. Yes a muppet he is

He must be saying to the ones who charge under a tenner to raise your prices as he must think you are undercutters, by the looks his clean clothe is on the window cill (drips, drips) and maybe there is a claim there as it seems he slagging off everyone in the trade  ;D ;D
