I'm 99% wfp but still use Trad methods now and then. (Can't wfp when cleaning inside )

WFP shouldn't cause arguements on here as it's just another tool to help us do our jobs. It's just up to you if you use it.

How many garages do you see un-doing wheel nuts by hand? They all use an Air Ratchet now because it's quicker and easier - another tool to help them be more efficient.

See this going down the usual road of WFP 'V' Trad :

Find this site very useful for info on both methods.

WE ARE ALMOST ALL TRADITIONAL WINDOW CLEANERS.

There are one or two who have gone straight into 'sweeping glass', but most have been cleaning windows the best/easiest/most profitable/life sustaining way for many years.

So what do you need to know grasshopper?

Traditional Only

[Ian_Giles]

I use trad just about everyday...what I don't do is work off ladders.

WFP doesn't replace trad, it only replaces ladders.

As is contstantly said, it is just another tool in the window cleaners armoury.

I think that although the majority of posts on here are on WFP issues, whenever someone posts a trad question it is always answered in some depth.

With my moderator hat on, I personally try to ensure a Trad thread doesn't get hijacked into a WFP one.
I think - at least recently - most the trad threads have stayed on track, though sometimes it is hard to keep up to speed as there are now so many new posts every day.

From what I understand from Terry's posts, he's 100% trad and uses poles (not WFP ones) for 1st floor windows.

I'm guessing that he has a mainly shop based round.
