This is all a bit 'itchy' for me..we all clean windows..some do using their prefered weapon of choice some will use tools from the 'dark-side' on occassion...but in all cases we do the same thing.

So with all the goodwill in the world...good luck to all fellow window cleaners..

A little verbal light sparring in the evening does you good ;D ;D

Cheers

Trad is an essential skill,.. there are so many times where it is necessary for me I wouldn't have half my business if I was wfp only. I'm 95% WFP by the way,.. but some internal work is a requirement of a couple of contracts, and I actually find the wagtail faster than WFP on some shopfronts etc.

Matt,.. Abseiling safer than cradle? That true?

I used to abseil a bit,.. scary stuff compared to MWEP work IMO!


Most cradles are not serviced due to cost etc.
So in my eyes Abseiling is safer.
