@@jacobschisler1266 I tried it once and never looked back 🤙

@@dusty_119 skating is the reason I’m so comfortable on the roof & ladder haha 🤙

@@bm1588 I’ve still been a bit slow about building my route, but once the season slows down and I have some more free time I plan on building it up again

@@Puffwindowcleaning oh I see so you’re obviously having a lot of success with your marketing to residential. Thanks for sharing your journey along the way it’s very encouraging.

@@bm1588 thanks for watching! A huge majority of my work has been coming from word of mouth. I’m hoping to push harder on marketing and advertising next year to really take things to the next level.

Go get it!

@@KnoxFlowPressureWashing I have the Xero screen cleaner, but I’ve found this method to be so much faster and efficient.

@@warmpaper769 The morning fast got me on a chill one 🤙

@@LePerrit at times it can be more of a hassle using the soapy water because there are times where there’s mud streaks from all of the buildup. I feel that I get the same results from a nice dry cleaning, but I always recommend to do whatever works best for you 🤙

@@Puffwindowcleaning Cool, I'll give it a try! Do you remove the door screen to clean the other side?

@@LePerrit no, I clean it from inside of the house. I don’t like removing sliding screens because I’ve had instances where the mechanics were rotten and fragile or rusted. I only remove window screens

@@Puffwindowcleaning Got You!

@@Puffwindowcleaning Got it, thank you!

@@Botman_Rubthem it’s definitely possible. I’d just find ways to make it not so obvious to the clients that you live in your van, and I’d be mindful to not sleep in there with any gas containers or chemicals. Best of luck bro. Push hard for it and you got it 🤙

@@Puffwindowcleaning right, the van will be wrapped and the bed will raise to the roof hidden out of site in a high top, and if my clients happen to look in I’ll just explain to them it acts as a mobile office so I can be more efficient with my business on the road.

@@Botman_Rubthem I’d just be sure to have a solid business and life plan. It Sounds like you’re planning on taking a big risk, so just be sure to have a backup plan, and life things in order in case you hit some bumps in the road. This is a seasonal business, and things do slow down quite a bit in the fall/winter depending on where you live. Best of luck man 🤙

@@Puffwindowcleaning right on man, thanks for the insight. It is a big risk for sure, but no risk no reward, right? While I’m still young I should do it though. there are loads of things I can fall back on now, can’t say that about in the future when I get older, and have to be more careful. And besides at least I have a van that is mobile I can go anywhere if I find it hard to get clients I can just pop over to another city try my luck. Winter time in Canada sucks the big one. But there is always work to be had in some industry as long as the van is properly insulated and I have a heat source it will be ok. Just would find it easier to save up for a property while living in a kitted out van and not giving away all my money to a landlord it’s expensive living anyplace these days.

@@warmpaper769 big emphasis on the “other things” 😂

@@trevdawg2 from what I’ve heard it sounds like a lot of guys who have been on business for awhile don’t like to try new things such as water fed, seo, advertising, etc. In my opinion people tend to get stuck in their old ways, techniques, and pricing. The business is constantly evolving and we have to evolve with it or get passed up by the next generation who understands the power of water fed, Facebook ads, seo, a company website, van wraps, etc.

@@mikew2095 I have the 40 degree ninja handle with the ettore wide body channel. I bought it just to try it out and now I use it daily. Ninja squeegee is a solid buy 🤙
