Title: New cleans wfp how long to do
Post by: jeremy evans on February 16, 2012, 08:28:56 am: Hi, i'm pretty new to to wfp having started up actually cleaning 3 weeks back. Got 30 custys so far and another 20 to do in the next couple of days. Next tuesday i have 4 five beds one with conny, 4 four beds two with connys and 2 three beds. was just wondering how long you more experienced guys think this will take. Have a 1000ltr tank so plenty of water on board so hopefully no refilling needed.

Hi Jez, good luck with your business
but as before-allow twice as long for a first clean,
plus if your doing ten in one day!!you will sleep well that night my friend-prepare for a long day :D

Been and done nine new cleans this morning mostly nice compact 3 beds with a couple of 4 beds thrown in. One thing i have realised is i need a nice light pole instead of the 25ft brodex aluminium job i set myself up with which is a pain on the 3 story jobs i had today. Can see me spending some more money before long ;D

At those rates, you will be fine!!
If you ever wanna sell and come and work for me?- you sound like a grafter ;D ;D

Also agree about changing for the Gardiners Pole (clx to start) fine piece of kit- it will get you up to 30 a day? ;D

Post by: jeremy evans on February 16, 2012, 02:00:54 pm: looks like the clx for me then. Glad i've got the big tank as it gives me the option to really wind the pump up and use loads of water for rinsing etc without fear of running short. Glad i've got a good lad doing the canvass work for me as with my bin cleaning business i dont think i would have the time. 50 custys in 3 weeks so far might have to give him a bonus.
