This is my first winter window cleaning. I was wondering if its possible to work in ice or snow. I have grit ready to use where needed. Or is it best to stay at home?

[darren clarke]

i my self would stay at home, as better too lose a few days wage rether then get sued becasue some old lady slips

[Crystal-clear]

Stay at home its not worth it iced roads is to dangerous personally i wont work in those conditions and on days that are below 0 i wouldnt work too once it creeps up to 1 or 2 thats fine thou.

I do work in some ice and snow but I have found it dangerous to get to the work with a weighted vech alot of the time.

Screen wash , van heater, work when ground temp is above
Freezing, you'll be ok. I go out as much as poss just to keep
The money ticking over. I have a Landrover so end up towing
People up hills and out of ditches;-)
Happy days
Ps don't want to put a damper on it but we are expecting it
To be cold on and off until march so get used to working in it
But be safe. Get out every opportunity , last year people took
A week of between Xmas and new year , because it snowed
Before Xmas and after new year , some people didn't work for
4/5 weeks

I did work when there was snow and ice on the floor last year but I couldn't get out from 2nd - 10th January.  The air temperature was below zero all day during those days and I didn't see the point of trying to squirt water onto glass for it to freeze a few seconds later.  As soon as it drifted even a little above zero, I was back out there though.  I ran my hose around piles of snow and had a liberal quantity of rock salt with me for the vulnerable areas.  For the very vulnerable areas, I tradded the ground floor to reduce the amount of water lying around.  It was slow and painstaking but I still managed to get to three figures in a day - quite an achievement considering what I was up against.  Also, I had to select my work carefully and avoid hilly areas in some cases.

Do you have fitted tanks?

We have custom 750l tanks, there are 6 125l tanks that fix together then bolt down to the chassis. They are reasonably priced.
