yea but we are not plumbers are we, we are window cleaners and was talking about people starting up in the game working cheap to get work. Im not saying its great money. just if I wasnt window cleaning and was labouring or in a factory factory etc id never earn 500 a week unless had a right cushty number. rates and money has gone down everywhere.

2 guys quote  to clean my van using the same method 1 is 10 pound the other is 20 pound. I know who im going with. Its all good having high priced work but sooner or later someone will come and be cheaper. maybe not all customers go for the cheaper option but defo some will. I have had it many times being undercut, even had it from telephone canvassers beating my price without even seeing the house. Sadly its a dog eat dog world. Just by chance us window cleaners are lucky that there are so many houses out there to replace our losses
