We all have to start somewhere chaps Gardiner poles had probably started from humble beginings and they are now the most popular & trusted wfp supplier around imo

Is your son andy from encompass! if so see there are up for sale at 90k! or tho there has been a name change! I think!

Andy

[TDW]

No. But I know who u are talking about. What do you think of that for £90k and do you know why he's selling up?

Tdw

[poleman]

Tdw

Well the first WFP in Dorset was AQUAPOLE and I all most paid 45k BUT when I saw the Profit and lost account, I ran Lol I personal cant see them getting 90k for Encopass, but like anything you just never know! why are they selling up! my office manager works for them now, and he is very good at what he does, so from me reading of the situaction, they fatten up the business to sell off!

So was you the chap we saw this week just gone!

[TDW]

On the roundabout on the wessex way. Thats me!

Didn't some called Gerry buy aquapoles work? I know Bruce previously from Aquapole and Andy from encompass. My nephew works for Andy.

Tdw

[poleman]

I remember now, my mate said hi  I haven’t met Gerry Rowland-Green Cleaning Contractors but know he has been going for a long time! I was only saying the other day that haven’t seen the Aqua Pole vans around for a long time! Has he got rid of them! Yes I know Andy from encompass as well sold my shop windows to him about 4 years ago

Andy

[Glyn H]

Aquapole's Bruce Barrons was one of our first customers back in March 1998 when we kitted out an old Suzuki van for him.
We continued supplying him until he retired.
Their was a serious reason why he stopped window cleaning - his young son died in tragic circumstances, and Bruce realised their was more to life than all work.

[TDW]

I know him( i bought work of him) but not very well and I know others that know him well and I've never heard that. Dont get me wrong I'm not saying that isn't true but I'm just surprised I've never heard of it. I've met met 2 of his kids and his wife so he must of had 3. Very sad.

Tdw

[mr D]

i know gerry well hes a smashing bloke known him since i was a nipper and i think ive met bruce at the bournemouth window cleaners xmas do one year. not to sure but i know my dad knows him well.

[poleman]

Yes does surprise me as well, as his ex employees have worked for me, but Bruce does keep his cards close to his chest, so very sad indeed
