hi matt. if your going to have to buy a pole anyway why dont you look at one of the residential pole kits that cost £90. you'll get the pole, brush and resin cartridge and be able to do other odd jobs with pure water when you need it 8)

If you mean the Ionic residential kit, thats good but the pole is only 12ft.  Thats barely 1st floor.  An 18 ft "residential" pole (on its own) costs about £90, thats about 2nd floor.

If you're thinking of something else, then ignore me.

I too am looking at a pole system/kit but i have not decided what to get as I hear good and bad things about the poles - anyone with any suggestions - I like the sound of beecleans pole kit.

If you ever get caught out with a slipping pole and you don't have any replacements with you, all you have to do is heat up the edges of your old ones with a lighter or match, and push the sides in a little to thicken them.  They will last a couple of days or so until you get some more.
