Newbie thinking of starting up

[boarcity]

i use the harris pole/wagtail most every day . find it hurts your shoulders after a while . i probably do 80% ladders and 20% pole in the day to day

 

[Rob Phillips]

I will eventually by ladders , I've only got a Focus at the moment and the money spent splurging on roof racks and ladders is better invested elsewhere at the moment , I intend to do first floor WFP and ground trad , saves water and time .

good on yer Rob, main thing is uve made a start on the windows .

i remember when i first started, in 08 , i hadnt even practiced 1 window before i started , lol

 

[Rob Phillips]

Well , it was a bit of a wake up call . But it's only made me want to do it even better next time !

Hi Rob you and me in the same boat, i just started out a couple of months ago myself. I'm still in process of canvassing together a round as nothing come up for sale in my area yet. Have learned some valuable lessons already. Good luck mate, keep us updated on your progress.

Glad I'm not the only one ! Hope your business is a flier ! This time next year we will be millionaires

Just a bit of an update , converted my Harris pole to waterfed , easy even for me ! Vikan brush , angle adapter fed hose through pipe . All I'm waiting for now is my 25ltr barrel , box and sack truck and I'm away !

Another update !

Built my waterfed trolley using Waggas video on YouTube . Works brilliantly ! Still only practising on friends and families houses . Not quite confident enough yet to go canvassing ! Thinking of moving house soon so I'm hoping to get a van and DIY my own Van system in it , fingers crossed !

Trust me , if I can do it anyone can ! Hardest part was modifying the pole .
