Theres probbaly loads of oppotunitys we are missing out on by being too busy and involved in window cleaning to be able to see what else is out there.

I had the idea of Upvc spraying a while ago and it keeps coming back to me. I had a quote of £1200 to do my 3 bed semi and the estimate it could be done in 1 to 2 days. Its low cost entry, minimal equpiment, only downside is its very weather dependant almost a seasonal business.


Again it’s not as simple as it looks you have to know what you are doing , it’s not an easy job , I have a few customers that have had it done looks a right mess , to do it properly  is like spraying a car preparation is key ones look at it and think it’s easy money but it’s not .

north east      a chimney sweep cost a customer of mine £25      yes you heard right £25.    i was taken back at that price.       I said thats a good price.      i couldnt believe it

Are you prepared  to repair any damage ic caused on chimney if anything comes loose.    mesh cover etc

its not just a case of using a Wet & dry vac
you will need rods etc  and watch a few videos on chimney sweeping
My Dad used to do this over Ireland where everyone had a coal fire .     well in demand .     i wish i went with him just to see how he operated ,
