Could anyone help me please.
« on: November 28, 2005, 11:26:19 pm »
Hi

I am looking into buying a window cleaning business. And I would appreciate if someone could advice me on couple of things.

Which is the best Water fed pole system?
Where could you get training on how to operate the water fed pole system?
What equipment would you recommend I need to carry for this job?
Do I need insurance to start this business? If yes could you recommend any companies? Also what would I need insurance for?
Would I need to go on a Health & Safety Course?
Pricing: How much should I be charging my customers roughly for shops, Offices Etc.

It would be very grateful if someone could give me a hand on some of these issues.

You need to decide first whether you wanna use a van or a car, secondly a lot of shops want the main shop window done traditionally as they don't want customers walking in with wet feet etc.  Next you need to decide what height you plan to work to.  Once you have decided on all that then you can start to look at systems cuz you'll know what you need, not what you want.  If you want any more help then this is the right place to be, think twice cuz you only want to buy once.

Jonas,

You've asked many questions and each of them are worth an essay.

This will sound like a naff answer; but good advice.  Start reading through all the posts till you get to about page 10.  By then, most of your questions will have been answered and you can refine further questions to post here that will probably receive a better response.

Welcome to window cleaning and to the forum.

Regards,

Tosh.
