New to window cleaning
« on: December 16, 2014, 04:14:05 pm »
Hi

I am flirting with the idea of taking up window cleaning to supplement my income but I really don't know where to start equipment wise, what would you recommend I need? I mean I know I'd need a squeegee etc but I have no idea what size or kind...

Also I've no idea where to buy, I've been to B&Q and their range looked alright...I saw kits, would you guys reccomend a kit?

Sorry for the barrage of questions

Thanks

When you do get your window cleaning squeegee scrubbers,
You might want to go here it will show you how to use your squeegee.
Or at least get some idea of how.
