As above, but one other point, practice with BOTH hands.Get a squeegee and a mop, then go on YouTube. Practice is the best teacher in this business.
If you really want to learn the proper way, try to find a local cleaner and ask to tag along for a day.
Where abouts are you? You can come join me for a unpaid days labour. I'll even let you buy me lunch to say thank you. ?Ya I'm watching videos. I find it more beneficial to get real world training when starting a business though, learning from one company their ways vs everyone else's way's on YouTube, that get's confusing ?
Training that details, water purification systems & types, pole fed systems & types and whatnot.
Surely there are training centers in the UK.
I can vouch for this! When I left my full time PAYE job I gained over 200 customers in the first 6 months. I did both for just under a year and only gained 45 window cleaning customers.Very sorry to say this, don't take it personally, but to make a success of window cleaning, unless you live in an area that doesn't have many window cleaners, you need to eat sleep and drink it to make it work. If you're running other business's you will really struggle to get the windows up to a good level.
I wouldn't have been able to complete 50% of todays work with a trailer. The only resolve would have been to have a trailer carrying water and a trolley and parked at the end of the road. The extra time spent would severely eat into your profits though.There's a reason why we all use dedicated vans and not one of those huge trailers.
You will find pulling that thing around a nightmare, I cant imagine trying to get parked on most of my residential work with that great big thing attached.
Before you go wasting money on an expensive trailer try getting a trolley system and fit it in the van if you can, best of both worlds. If you have room for a sack truck, a handful of 25L containers and a pole you don't need a trailer.It will be a transition in progress type a deal. Ill trial run window cleaning for a while see where it takes me.
It's not the size of the trailer that would cause you trouble its parking it mate. You need to be able to park in small residential cal-de-sac type streets. You may need to do a fair amount of turning round in small areas in these roads. The most profitable work is often on new build estates that have a distinct lack of parking. If you're heart is set on a trailer go for it man, none of us will ever tell you not to but we will point out the flaws to give fair warning.The trailer I have my eye on only weights 200kg.
Gardiners back pack is the most common option. Easily fixed if they break. Depends how you plan to work really, you can build a trolley system for £130-150 which would be more suited to completing an entire days work IMO. The backpack is much more versatile, it can be taken through peoples houses if there is no other access, it can be easily taken through tight spaces, don't have to watch out for dog poo as much etc etc. Either option is much much cheaper than a trailer systemThat sounds like a great idea! Perfect for what I'm after TBH. Is there any recommendations for this type of back pack system.
Comercial or residential, glass is glass, all money so I guess I have no preference. As of now anyway.
