i've been graftin off and on for 16 years and there is no magic method to cleaning a window. if you're after setting up yourself you need to take the plunge and canvass a round. it is not easy to get any decent money at 1st. if you've never cleaned a window before you should practice on your home windows. YOU WILL NOT EARN GOOD MONEY FROM DAY ONE SO IT DOES NOT REALLY MATTER HOW FAST YOU ARE! once you have the basic method of fanning and are confident, you will learn other methods that increase your speed, then you will be able to earn more. PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT! one day of practice won't do much. YOU DON'T NEED MUCH EQUIPMENT AT FIRST! just get the basics, t-bar, sleeve, blade, scrim and scraper. JUST KEEP AT IT AND YOU WILL GET BETTER AT IT! if you enjoy the job (there are more positives than negatives) there are dvds that you can buy that will give some hints and tips. YOU HAVE TO BE AN AMATEUR BEFORE YOU BECOME A PROFESSIONAL! there is a learning process to window cleaning, form pricing a job to cleaning a window quickly and safely, but; IT IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE. if you have enough nouce to go on the internet you can learn to clean a window without breaking your neck. BEST OF LUCK!  :)
traditional cleaner, shop windows and some pubs.

Hi folks.I'm looking to start a round in the South-East London/North West Kent area (I live in Welling).I've bought the basic kit,as Simon says above,and have been practising basic techniques on my house and family and friends houses.Still feel a bit sheepish cleaning the windows of a strangers house though so would greatly appreciate anybody local (doesnt have to be THAT local) to me who could show me the ropes to improve my technique and generally learn the trade.

Hi,
I would like to ask if anyone who is working in Brentford area or anywhere near Brentford, West London would take me out for a week to learn the ropes of window cleaning.
I would prefer to learn the traditional method.

Many thanks,

Many thanks, Gary
