i always read on here of people picking up work cleaning blocks of flats and apartments, how do people get these jobs i can sell my business quite well and do pick up nice work but whenever i try management companies etc i cant get over the first hurdle , is it more a case of once ya in with a couple of them u just get more and more if u do a good job.

the one thing i hate bout workin is the travelling and packin away equipment on the pole i quite enjoy it n go into me own world!!! so blocks of flats would be ideal!!

I can't speak for others but two complexes of blocks of flats I do by subbing from a cleaning company.  The other one was by the management company directly contacting window cleaning companies in Yellow Pages.  My quotation was the one accepted.  My ad in YP was a paid for box too.  I have never approached a management company.

Not all blocks of flats are run by management companies; we clean loads of blocks and love the fact that, though lower in price individually, as a block it's well worth doing as you can bang out perhaps 10 flats in an hour and at £6 each it doesn't take long to earn a good day's pay.

Just knock on each flat individually; if they're controlled by a managemenr firm they'll tell you and you'll know who to approach. Good luck

I do 4 blocks of flats for a housing association in stoke.

They called me so I guess I dropped on.

Contracts managers are as bent as nine bob notes mate, offer them a wedge and you'll be fine
