Just like my WFP post it would be good to see what people like and dislike about tradional.

Like's

You can see instantly the results.

Much more satifying

Take's greater skill than a pole.

Dislike's

Keep going up and down those ladders.
Washing line's
Dogs C**p
Hard to reach windows.
Harder work than using a pole

[Wayne Thomas]

Falling off and hitting the ground

[pjulk]

You only fall if you take things for granted

[Wayne Thomas]

Or if some idiot who you rely on to foot a ladder disappears whilst you're up the ladder

[[GQC] Tim]

Or if some idiot who you rely on to foot a ladder disappears whilst you're up the ladder

Or if somebody opens a garage, or kitchen door.

Wayne are you talking from experance 

[Wayne Thomas]

yes

[Wayne Thomas]

I would never, ever rely on anyone to foot a ladder. I would rather use every ladder aid going or manoeuvre my van to use as a ladder stop than rely on absolutely anyone. I still use a ladder for access on commercial jobs only, otherwise it's 100% WFP work

bad thing

dog poo
washing lines
 uneven ground
standing on roofs
fighting with trees
getting people to move the cars to clean
clinbing over fences with all the gear attached to belt
did you want any more??

Things I like about trad: nothing (it's tiresome, tedious, slow, boring, hard work, poor paying by comparison and involves going up ladders)

[Ian W]

I like the simplicity of trad. Minimum investment needed, low overheads and low maintenance.

I dislike really hot or humid weather, awkward windows, thorny plants.

[Rob.Hall]

I like trad.

Dislike garden plants bang under the window!

Dog poo.

Large houses with small pains.........They are a pain!

taking work off wfp because they dont the message...residential customers dont like it...picked up 4..yes thats right 4 of a wfp just because i wipe the cills...today. i love trad, i really do, its simple, wipe cills do front doors, dont skip n punters are loyal for life, now all you wfp guys are gunna slag me off, that's really ok, i don't mind, i'm just speaking from experience and getting my rounds fatter, but to put balance on this, i do have wfp for some 3 storey leaded, the wfp turned it from a nightmare to a pleasure but i only do the fronts which are leaded, the back n sides are tradded.

being close up at upstairs windows and never seeing anything
interesting

summer roasting your nuts off, reflection of sun in windows
blinding you

[Kevin R]

dislike

Slippery decking,

steep ladders in entry ways beside a house,

porches, conservatories, tile roofs

Like,

views are better than when doing wfp

being up close and personal

keeps you fitter than wfp

Is anyone making a WFP periscope yet?
