No.. not them confessions  Bless me Father for I have sinned...... Today I broke someones gutter and carefully replaced the broken bit, held in place with some moss, and went on my merry way ....  Feel free to confess your Window Cleaning sins, past or present below....Amen. |

All of the above. Well all apart from the gutter. I don't think I would leave a gutter broken as it could cause damp on the property if unattended to.

picked up a new custie today because the last window cleaner made holes in her grass with his ladder I smiled when I read this. I have picked up a fair amount of work when customers have not been happy with their WFP WC. So its only right that some customers turn to you WFP guys when they are not happy with Trad. Horses for Courses, There is plenty of work there for everyone. |

Window looked shut, started WFP it and it opened in, knocked all ornaments off the window and sprayed water all in the bedroom. Done that twice! Not same house tho! Also, again window looked completely shut, went to mop it, it swung open knocked a massive plant off and it landed in the woman's open dishwasher, soil all over it. Oops. |
