Just had a call from a window cleaner wanting some pencil jets & other bits for DIY brushes, he also asked what I thought/recommend a DIY brush. My response is in part below -
“One of the main reason window cleaners jet there own brushes that they have brought from the supermarket, is because they don’t earn enough. They obviously think saving about £85 a year on this cost is a good decision.
A huge difference in disposable income will dictate your spending habit, and this affects your business. E.g. someone with a disposable income of £5k per year or a £95 per week, compared to someone with £25K or £480 per week; with less disposable income the temptation to DIY is stronger.
Wfp brushes are cost effective piece of equipment, for every £1 pound you spend on new replacement jetted brush you should be getting about £350 in return, if the brush is replaced every 3-4 months. DIY a brush for window cleaning isn’t necessary, even if you are a part time window cleaner.”
Needless to say I didn’t recommend any brush for DIY.
