Hi All
I have the chance to tender for a large (200+ rooms) contract and will need a wfp. I can't afford 1 so anybody hire them ?.
Cheers Malcolm

Malcolm,
Don't know if anyone hires them, but have you considered subcontracting it to one of the lads on here who has one. You can then get to learn how to use one effectively whilst still earning from the work.
Seems like a sensible option until your ready to fork out quite a few grand for just the one job. Lets you build up and canvass for more as well.
Good luck
Stephen

build your own
i built my own, and i belive i saved a load of money
Unger Pole and angle neck --- 70
Trolley, pump box, brush and 12 containers -- 400
100 gal RO with DI --- 100
water butt to store water --- 25 (soon to be doubled in size)
hosepipe and reel and 5 mm pipe and connections --- 30
Power pack
total cost --- 650 quid
sure the Unger pole isnt the lightest, the RO is only 100 Gal a day, its on 24 hours a day and does the job, we use it for 8 hours work a day, 4 days a week
all the other bits are the same as every1 else uses (same brush, pump etc)
if the contract is that good, 650 quid inst that much
