not sure what force 4 is, but it sounds extremley windy. I'd take the day off.

Controlling your pole becomes difficult in high winds and rinsing can also be a problem as the water blows everywhere. You might even end up with a snapped pole!
I'd take a day off or use the time for canvassing/ office work.

Never!!!!!!


I used to seriously consider ladder work in 25mph winds.

Frost and thunder is the only thing that will stop me WFP

Keep going, customers might have a moan you cleaning in the rain but how many say
" leave it today it looks a little windy" ;D

Although to be fair if the dust etc blows back on them they aint gonna look good.
