I know you are opening your back car doors alot too eh? /emoticons/tongue.png

Glad the wfp is working out for u mate

 

[Dave B]

A couple of windows on that job i knocked up the residents and did a 2nd time from i side as some idiot has got the wood stain on the glass and needed a bit of a scrape

If no one was in i wouldn't have bothered but thought I'd make a good impression as this woman who gave me the job works in property management and i want her to think of me next job that comes up

 

[TolishAPurd]

Looks a good job mate. Apart from the height theres nice simple windows, just what I like.

 

[Dave B]

It was easy..nice glass too..got a nice flow down the glass

Did 1 inside as well for the resident as the management company paid for the outsides

 

[Tuffers]

Nice job to get Davey :thumbsup:

 

[Dave B]

Not a massive earner as only 6 flats x 3 windows as the other side has 1 window per flat plus 4 velux and the big stairwell window in the pic

23 windows in total and about 3 quid a window it works out

I'll take a few jobs like that anyday

2 monthly as well

Pole off a ladder?

i could, but think about those veluxs on a windy day AND /or in winter . i personally say no to those before the start . the rest of the windows look ok

Will you stay trad till retirement Jonny?

 

[Dave B]

The ground is severely sloped and has a path with borders and rocks on the left out of view which rules out any decent sort of angle on ladders for that velux and the front is iffy too

never say never [ wasnt that a film?] , die another day [ now that Was ]

i plan next year to stop doing 3 storey ladders, example these houses we do you couldnt do it alone unless u love risks - with fearsome garden angle but no plans to changeover to WFP as i really like having a team of workers= cope with just about anything no delay , nobody gets tired like a dog

and on WFP doubt it could be done from 1 van with 4 on board - having said that with a big minibus possibly i dunno though

 

[Diwrnach]

Could do the veluxs from inside? Just flip them.

The other 2 i did with the pole

[Diwrnach]

Hate those bar covered windows they are putting everywhere.

 

[Pickingpaul]

I agree diwrnach, those bars really are a pain, doing trad or wfp, i have a house with one i wfp and must take three times as long thanks to the bars, only on their back bedroom master bedroom though.

Well done on all the new jobs this week dave, i got a couple myself, going to get on it tomorrow fri and sat as its my quietest week and almost done all my work

 

[Dave B]
