hi, where do you advertise,? i do yel pages interenet and flyers etc but im also after more commercial work myself. 

[clinton]

There is so much work out there in the domestic sector mate.

Commercial work sounds good and there is much more work involved hence good money trouble is in the downturn were having is less commercial work and slow payments or even companys folding and not paying.

winter pressure washing is slow though, people seem to only bother in spring and summer altho their drives look a discrace all through the winter.  why dont people bother in winter, its winter when you notice how bad the drive is as when its wet it looks more dirty. and its slippier in winter.  i think its just a general opinion now that you dont have you drive cleaned in winter. i think its stupid.

we need to "big up" winter washing as it needs to look good for christmas visitors and for health and safety reasons.

Thanks for the reply and you are right, we dont get summers any more its winter all year round nowadays

hi prestige, did you get any commercial?

[Prestigedrives]

Hi drive surgeon
 No mate havent got any commercial yet. Ive not pushed it hard yet to get any but will be paying some visits soon. How are you getting on with it. I noticed you was interested in the omnipole too. Keep me in touch how you go on . cheers

[drive surgeon]

yes im looking at the idea!  might get a rep out for a demo before i buy!

it seems a bit of a gimmick but who knows?

[Prestigedrives]

Hi been on there site is it just over a grand for the pole tube and vacuum? or do u need other bits for it

[drive surgeon]

they sell the cam and accesories like a spike for the downspouts!  are you buying one pd?

[Prestigedrives]

not sure, im a bit like you is it a gimmic . will it suck all the muck out or do you have to wash it after aswell?

[Prestigedrives]

Guys

Go onto window cleaning forum or search gutter vac before taking the plunge
Some real interesting debates exist on the pros and cons - I spent two-three months monitoring this topic.

i suppose if i had a spare 1500 quis it could be a usefull bit of kit, its all down to advertising i suppose, no one wants to clean their own gutters or get up ladders so it seems like a good idea really!
