if you can afford it buy the whole package, it will save you a lot of time in the future. i bought the vac and camera system only. but you soon find out you need the powerpole, power washer, gutter spike etc.

add it to your window cleaning round if you have one. price it cheap for your window custies. then clean them on a saturday when most people are at home, i will promise you will pick up more work. and do speak to window cleaners like you said just make sure you price the job up and not them.

does that mean that you have sufficent work for the van to work independently of your WC rounds

reckon ye could make one for half the price of basic model.

industrial Vac bout 300 quid with decent motors. All ye need then is a pole, hose, attachments and generator

Do a search on here. You can make your own easily and upset everyone in the process.  ;D
I use a trailer to cart the lot around but it's an aweful lot of kit for such a simple task. Hoses, extension leads, pressure washer hoses, vacuum hoses lances, extension hoses all catch on everything on residential work - it's a horrible job sometimes.

By the way, why don't Omnipole publish their prices anymore?

i was waiting for the diy guys to put there oar in. ;D yes you can build it cheaper but for me i like it to work straight out the box. whichever way you do it i think its a great thing to add on to your window cleaning round. yes its a lot of kit but there is lots of extra work you can do as well.not just gutters. but external building cleaning. pathways, if you buy the camera system you dont only have to survey gutters!. i do camera work for builders, my local swimming pool, all sorts

it is not all on there yet, the wfp system is, the rest will be this week, then taken out at night, having ramps built for it and should have them tomorrow, fingers crossed. I will do a pic as soon as.
