Is that picture not the same one that Ionics use, or some other company and would they even be allowed to use it?

My house is £20 to clean
So if I called him I would ask for:
50% off my first clean =£10
50% off for recommending my friend =£0.00
30% off for switching =£ -6.00
so I get my windows cleaned and he gives my £6.00,
sounds a good deal to me he pays me to clean my windows !!!!!!

His first clean price maybe 4 times higher than the regular price, hence being able to give a 50% discount.
That said, I don't think he's that clever  ;D

I'd get him to do my windows and then cancel him.
Just chant..... Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. It's beats chanting Tory Tory or Labour Labour.

Having Problems?

Vittore Bakery: “Our window cleaner causes traffic problems by parking on the double yellow lines outside our shop and annoys our customers”
Mrs Western: "My window cleaner rushes around my house and doesn’t do the best job in the world…”
Mrs Jane: “My window cleaner shows little regard for my neighbours when parking his van”
Mrs Langston: “My window cleaner has damaged my property without owning up”
Dr Bramber: “My window cleaner climbs over my fence without my permission”
Mr Burges: “My window cleaner knocks on the door asking for his money”
Lady Stanford: “My window cleaner arrives without prior notification”
Mrs Kemp: “I think my window cleaner uses my tap to fill his tank”
Mrs Osborne: “I think my window cleaner charges me too much”
Ms Brooke: “My window cleaner leaves my porch under water”
Ms Semley: “My window cleaner steps on my plants”
Mr Clayton: “My window cleaner comes too often”
Mr Miller: “My window cleaner comes in the rain!”
Mrs Ockley: “My window cleaner is unreliable”
Mrs Dale: “My window cleaner isn’t flexible”

We’ve seen and heard it all.

Not all window cleaners are made the same.

What can that mean for you?
Perhaps you live in a 5 bedroom home with a conservatory, or larger.  Do you think it would take more than a day to spring clean your home?  Likely, it would take at least a day to:
Clear your gutters
Clean your gutters, fascias and soffits
Clean your window frames, sills and windows
Clean your conservatory top-to-bottom inside-and-out
Clean the interior of your windows
Wouldn't you value the peace of mind of knowing that it won't cost you more than £160 (an eight hour day at £20/h)?  Would any other window cleaner offer you that?  Not in our experience.

£160  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Where is he?


I live in Petersfield, Hampshire and the add is in one of those free directories that came through my door. Not sure where he is though.

What an irritating website; full of his own self-importance and arrogance.
It's a game of three halves!

Correct me if I'm wrong but WFP is used to avoid working at height ie. off a ladder. The window cleaner conducts a risk assessment and based on that decides if WFP or ladders is best option based on what is reasonably practicable????

We'll this dude is offering a choice. So is that based on the customer carrying out a risk assessment and then choosing the preferred method??
