Looks really good but I knew it would as he replaced mine in January.
My old site did well on google but never got me many calls, since the uplift I am getting 3 web enquiries a week.
Anyone thinking about a website, Nat is fantastic value for money.

Hi Chris looks good but noticed something..

The bit about text alerts does not read very well, its a bit confusing or maybe its just me?

We also operate a text alert system for those that need to leave gates open for us, if you would like to take advantage of this make sure we have your mobile no and let us know what your brief message should be (max 100 characters) and we’ll text you beforehand so you’re ready for us.  
WE CLEAN BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT WITH WATER FED POLE WHEN WORKING AT HEIGHT.

I would use leave the gate unlocked/bolted
I lost one because she thought an open gate was an invite for passers by to go into the garden.

Here's another one I did a bit of work on - - she's a local photographer, young girl starting out & I'm sure she'd appreciate a few "Likes" on her FB page: http://niamhdunlea.com/  ;)

Good work nathanael! Funny thing is when i first started window cleaning i also started to learn web design as a friend of mine is a full time self employed web desinger who set me on the right path with it

Then as time went on a got fed up of trying to learn html etc etc and decided to put all my efforts into the windows

So i was just wandering how long it took you to learn web design to a standard where you can make a living (be it part time in your case) from it?

Regards

George

I've been doing web design as a hobby for 10 years or more,.. started to get more into it about 7 years ago doing it mostly for friends & family - and it just took off from there! I'm getting to the point now where I'm actually doing more web design than windows,.. I've been flat out the past 3 weeks doing websites, only doing 1 day a week on the glass!

Its not something you can ever say you're an expert at though, as the whole area changes beyond recognition every couple of years & you have to constantly keep learning. It is something I really enjoy doing though, and its great to have a wet weather job to compliment the windows.  :)
