Equipment

Just starting out and was wondering what people are using. I purchased a few Squeegees at H.D, alond with a pole and t-bar with a pad. I see lots of angled squeegees, hip buckets, ect. What is really needed?

Thanks
Dave

What kind of window washing are you going to be doing commercial or residential.

Good question slim. what are you going to do.
If you are going to do houses you will need a bucket on a belt, if you are just doing comercial, you just use the bucket. (List)- Extension pole a must, towels, razor blades, spare rubbers, multi sized channels (make sure you have a 6 inch no matter what other size you go with), quick change hadles are nice, spare scrubber pad, water jug, Reciept book.
Dont let them fool you Insurance is always expensive for something youarn't going to use. But you have to have it. I think i found half a million for 350 a year.
Good luck.

I will being both residential and commercial. I have added this on to another business, Sealcoating, and my insurance will cover both business.

And if you are going to do 2 stories and up i definitely recommend a wing for your ladder, if you dont already have one.
