Dan,they started off a in Fareham,Hants where i'm from and they were just a small window cleaning firm. They bought up alot of small businesses and are now very big. I know a few lads who have worked for them in the past and they were a bit slap dash,get the job done and get paid. Are you tendering for them as they do employ loads of window cleaners down here still? They clean domestic too as i picked up a large property off of them years ago.

yes luther they are looking after a few propertys up my way and its too far for them to do it themselves so have asked me to price communal windows in and out on ten blocks of flats. just dont want to do a days work for someone and possibly not get paid. saying that the chap i spoke to sounded very nice.

They're a proper firm Dan and i've certainly never heard anyone moan about them paying. I imagine normal business payment terms apply,30-40 days on account etc. Your cousins now live in Turk town then? :)
