so here it is...

the window cleaner that was up the ladders was me 12 months ago.

now i am using a wfp.
i explained the changeover was due to the change in legislation.

they said that thought all these H&S laws from Europe was ridicules.
and they were perfectly happy with my work.

Anyway the point of this story is this...

some companies know the WAHR law, but because they think its stupid, they refuse to comply.
however the law is the law.

many of you thought i was 'stealing' work, but i think those of you who thought this also care little about the WAHR law which is shameful...

as far as i am concerned if anyone - including myself - is not operating within the law, then their work is fair game.

You don't need an excuse to go after work.  A year or so ago I helped Tommo quote for a large posh hotel and golfcourse.  The contract had been held for many years by a Bristol window cleaning company.

We were only one quote of at least five or six other window cleaning companies.  No-one said, 'No, I'm not going to quote for that, since it belongs to another window cleaning company'.

I'd say send a mailshot or give the place you mentioned a phone call; you don't need to make excuses about whether they're working in accordance with the regulations or not; however you could use that as an 'edge' against your competitors.

Business is business.

i see dodgy window cleaners all the time,and although it annoys me that they bring the image of window cleaning in the gutter,i would never grass anyone up.Thats not right in my opinion.
