I pay all my guys on percentage, the harder they work the more they earn. Any complaints they go back and do them in their time. Don't get any probs, been like this for 4/5 years now! That's why they work harder and do more a day too

i have 2 lads going out together and they do 30-35 houses 8-4ish can prob earn 400ish a day between them in the summer they were doin 5-550ish

I try to discourage that kind of behaviour. Some of my customers object to gays.

I had to re-read a couple of times before I twigged  ;)

I worked for a guy who had a franchise (Jet Washing) and i got paid 23% of a days turnover. On a Saturday i would earn around £100 for a 12 hour day!!

it varies some days 420ish some days 350 this is work completed not paid out on,these two lads are both really hard working, the 550 figures were working till 6.30-7ish in the summer, one day they did 42 first cleans on small 3 bed semis.
a
it all depends on how well the round is organised etc and awkward customers, one of them went out on own other day friday and did 28 which was 240quids worth

im quite slow compared to these but i can get thru 18-20 with a full days work but im quite fussy with rinsing

the idea of the trad round was because of wfp

the lads go out with 500litres of water and usually cum bk once to refill
How many ltrs would you say they get through in a day then?

So on average 1 peson can do around 15 to 20 houses a day trade,how many hours is that in? and do you clean frames and sill, and are the houses all together.I have a small part time round as i do other work too, i work with my partner and no way could we do that many trad in a day we do sills and frames to.Ours are quite spead out but unless we has rows of terrece houses and just did the glass we might get to 15/20 a day but probably no more.I do own a WFP back pack and pole and that does save alot of time and it is handy fo them hard to reach windows.
