Reaching parts traditional window cleaners can not reach.

I bought a set from BetterWare ( the mag that comes to your front door) A long scoop and with extensions for 14pounds works well clean the inside with this then I clean the outside with a cloth, water & detergent. Then polish outside of gutter with bash cleaner.

Matt..

How long does it take you to clean the fascias with the lance ? (standard 3 bed semi)
Only those who risk going too far will truly know how far they can actually go

Matt ...

Would that work using just mains pressure or do you think that you really need a pressure washer?

It takes me about 30 minutes to clean 2 front and back with the pressure washer, unfortunately I still have to take the debris out manually, but I have a tool that means I only have to climb the ladders once, twice maximum per side.
I take my time and spend 2 hours on it, lol as I think when you are charging 100-150 to do the job the customer would certainly moan if I did it all in 45 minutes lol

thats what im in the process of building now, im going to use a harris pole, run some 8mm hosing up through it and i will have an adjustable garden sprayer at the top. with a spray of tfr first, mains pressure will be enough to shift the dirt.
