You mean your dad did and you inherited it

You have had those jobs since 31-37 years ago , and you said yourself you are below 50 so you didnt win them at 12 did you?

Well done though , but having big contracts doesnt mean you can do 32 houses in a day on your own
Whenever anyone questions your claims you fall back on how your dad was a window cleaning millionaire and you have big jobs on chemical sites

For all anyone knows you are still doing them for the same price as 30 odd years ago

No wonder you have to go out and clean 100 terraceds a day

This will be my last post before 6 pm, got to get on with today, as for inheriting, its half  true, as dad would have been 87 this month, I have looked after for 21 years now, and no the prices are not the same as 37 years ago, some jobs even go back over 50 years, and was £18 then, and nearly a grand now, but enough said, we don't clean more than a dozen terraced houses now, but that's where the money was, then teesside chemical sites, still think today more money can be made on small 3,bed semis  and know how to do them, whatever I say Sean, you only half believe, I will stick to my way, earning my money, driving an e class merc, that cost 41 grand new, its now 4 years old now, but I honestly belive, and I mean honestly, when go after contract work, and pull up in that, most know I am a succesful business man, and it pays its way, its the first time I have, mentioned the merc on here, as did not want to sound cocky, I know you will have an answer for this Sean, and no it did not come from dad, before you ask, now let me start working, thanks, as for the record i have never hid behind what my mam and dad did ; or the making a,million from window cleaning, and I don't know how many have done this, but was never born with a silver spoon, and work 6 days a week, and on the toosl, not all day in an office, and are very proud of dad, and that's why I have told his story on here a few times, and just goes to prove, hard working people like them from the worst areas of boro to be brought up in, can make it, and 90%,goes to my mam who is still going strong at 86 next month, and still does the accounts for us every week, she was the driving force, cause behind every good man, there's a woman, and dad would be the first to admit it was Mams determination, and will talk about her now.LOL

On a point, as of wednesday, i replied to a post on my smart phone, and its suprising how much time you can loose, answering text or emails, or post on this forum.Window cleaning round for sale, all cleaned by WFP.
the details below

New estate in Sedgefield, takes 2 men 2 days to complete.
Average price of houses is £8.50.
Takes £765 every 4 weeks
There is a round for sale on the forum, not far from us, the details below

i know people might say it can be done in xxxx many days to sell the round, but this works out at over 22 houses per man per day
