I don't have a clue.  ???

I'm not sure there could be any accurate answer.

All I can say is for this area (Brighton) there are more than there were but there again, there seems to be more starting out with their shiny new vans and maybe getting work or not, and then disappearing.
Just chant..... Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. It's beats chanting Tory Tory or Labour Labour.

One road in our area is qtr of a mile long full of big semis and detached and has 15 cleaners fighting for the work.

Last year two of them came to blows when someone moved out and the new owners asked their old windie to do em..


Quite funny really :D

I'm not saying CIU has 25,000 members therefore there are 25,000 window cleaners. I am just saying that the fact there are 25,000 members is a good indicator of the scale of our industry.

Personally I am not bothered how many other window cleaners or window cleaning companies work in or around my town.
If you do a great job you will never be short of work.  ;)
