We don't have enough customers so we generally only do about 4-5 hours each day Monday to Friday.  Sometimes we will have the odd day when we work much longer (or sometimes much shorter) but on the whole I would say no more than about 25 hours or so per week :(

actually "on the glass " working about 6-7 hours a day(full days)but if you count in collecting 2 hours a week,filling up,admin etc it adds up to much more!!


so on a normal full day in spring,summer,autumn it will be 9am-4 or 5pm then an hour filling up ready for the next day.

wfp has now started to open more gaps up on my round because i get through my workload a fair bit faster!i could comfortably take on another 3 full days work even though i have 320+ customers!

that extra room will be filled with conny roof/fascia/soffit cleans during the next 6 months and days off due to weather/holidays etc.

I spend about 6-7 hours a day 5 days a week cleaning windows. Some weeks 2-3 hours on a saturday then there is 6 hours a week collecting/canvassing or filling.

Im cutting it down though over the next few months by increasing prices and reducing the frequency of the cleans. Instead of working 5 days im hoping to work 4 days instead but be earning more money. I should have a full round again in 3 months with more free time.

Best Regards
Daniel Guest
