Hi there lads had a phone call from my advert in the yellow pages

It was a bloke who puts sola panels on roofs of building he wants me to give him a price on one house and a price on 200 houses and then 500 houses. One hell of a contract all there buildings

Are in a 25 mile radius of my house there are 12 panels on each roof

Neva done panes before so what do i need got a 60ft carbon pole so ok for hight also what sort of price do you lot charge per roof? Thanks

need a soft brush for cleaning them.

i charge £30 per house (16 panel setup) then £3 per extra one.

You can get a specialised solar panel brush from window cleaning warehouse, I dont think its very expensive!

As for price £1 a panel is a good price but considering the size of contract may be 50p a panel?

It will be a massive earner and could lead to more....... Nice one and good luck!

i use the top one of this page

some other guys on here use this one

make sure ur insurance covers you for them, one slip with the brush and you could crack them, they are only glass.

You may not need to pole or pole may not be suitable for the job. You will need to go round all 500 houses and check each job to see what equipment you will need.

Is there a time frame for this? I only ask as you said you were working 7 days a week already (i think)

yer, in a way is more of a specialist type job, not all window cleaner do them, so you can charge a little more.

I charge a minimum of £30 for a 16 panel system, then £3 per extra one

thats true, some are fitted that you havent got the distance to get a pole up. so you need other access equipment to use to get to them!

Yes this mite be the one. Fingers crossed it all starts in January

He said they're two story so what sort of pole set up will I need? Is this where the goose neck cums into play?

It all depends on the roof type, and the design of the houses. You will need to check EVERY house lol. each house will have a different obstacle in the way

 

[Taylorvan]

Sorry yes he told me he will give me the map of the houses that needs cleaning

And then I choose when I want to work and what times and then each month

I will re do them

here are 2 exapmles where a pole would be no good and other access equipment has to be used!
