If all your round was bungalows and you could therefore reach every window from the ground - would you spend the money and go wfp or would you stay trad?

Stay traditional

Probably would stay traditional, although saying that, I don't know, it's certainly easier to clean upvc frames with it I bet.

stay trad

WFP  I have customers who wouldn't want it done any other way.

Wfp is still quicker on most bungalows, so I would still use wfp!!

[chris@c.m.s]

groundhog isn't it about walking away leaving a top job rather than quicker and more money? that's just a bonus surely

I do leave a top job, and earn top money as well!!!

in a polite way.....  NO........ I get out of bed for the money not my pride of doing a top job in a nutshell.

[chris@c.m.s]

I take pride in my work and personally cant understand how your happy doing a job just for financial benefit only, sure its great making good money but how loyal will your customers be if they start with the money first attitude

Given that it's just so easy to wash the frames at the same time as the windows and the difference that it makes to the overall appearance, I think wfp is the way to go even on bungalows.

I have a brush attached to an telescopic broom handle for bungalows. It's about 3 foot collapsed and five foot extended. That's long enough to reach the difficult windows behind bushes etc and short enough so you're not decapiating garden gnomes with the back end of your 6 foot long pole.

If you want, you could always squeegee off, I suppose. But why would you want to do that?

There used to be a window cleaner in Ruislip years ago who only did bungalows. One of the Sunday papers did a story on him and he became a bit of a celebrity.

The story in the paper twisted the truth and made out he wouldn't climb ladders because he was afraid but the truth was he had a deformed leg and as he got older his hip gave out. I met him once.

However, it proves that it is possible to build a round of all bungalows and I have actually thought about it for when I get older.

It would mean you wouldn't have to worry about ladder bans or hosepipe bans. There are enough bungalows round here to do it. What an easy life

When I switched my round was mostly bungalows, sometimes I would go out the whole day with only a point.  I found that once your up to speed wfp that it is faster on bungalows and does a better job. 

Many bungalows have been converted to houses with awkward dormer roofs that are ideal for wfp.  I would probably spend the money as then you can happily widen out else where.

Oh and when I made the change I only lost one bungalow who had leaky windows.  She was all on her own though, so it did me a favor.

go wfp, trad is to much like hard work in the rain

[alanwilson]

thanks guys, I was wondering what I would have done but having thought about it I'm pretty sure I'd be wfp too, faster, easier, still top quality job too.

thanks

with wfp you can still have an easy life... later , as we get older...

doing tops and bottoms.... simply drop the awkward ones or above conservatories.

how hard is a straight forward semi. ?.... just keep it part time...

but i would hope i would be the chief ,in my office by then lol.

Im always thinking of building a round of just bungalows but i would have to travel miles to get enough.

Maybe build a mini round with just bungalows
