As we speak it's bouncing down here. I am running about 1.5 weeks behind but have 4 jobs 3 weeks late. It's starting to annoy me now. How behind are you?
-
Raining here got one inside job to do got some about 6 weeks behind but all the ones I don't like doing, weather better tomorrow so fill in tax return and sort out office
-
Up to date though most of my work is monthly!
-
no idea really if im behind as just go out every day and do what needs to be done £££ wise that is.
if rain going sideways or bouncing then wait it out in the van plotted up as it NEVER rains for 8 hours solid (normally that is) or if feeling cheeky do the ones I know are out at work otherwise just carry on till they say STOP you cant clean in this then just say ok see you next month ... very rarely happens now and tbh most customers don't care or even think that you cant clean in the rain.
I have 1 customer who wont allow cleaning in the slightest of rain but she is mad so I can live with that :)
-
I've so much gutter vacuuming & pressure washing etc coming in lately that the weather isn't a problem. I'll be catching up again on windows tomorrow
-
im about 3 months behind.................if you add up all the time lost over the the last 3 years ;D
I think like ian, its about doing what you can on the day and move on
-
For the first time since Christmas I might be up to date by the end of this week. Slight rain here but I will be heading out when builders arrive to finish off erecting a fence.

We're always behind on our work. I plan to put our prices up and see if I can lose some.
-

I think what I'm going to do is put the stuff up I don't like - by quite a wadge - and sugar it by saying I'll do them every-other-month, rather than monthly.

Wearing gortex and working through it.

It's ok working in rain when your young but when you get older it's harder to shake off the cold you catch
-
IM behind this week after catching up last week :( had man flu since sunday
hoping to get out tomorrow and friday and then catch up again next week

-
I'm always behind, nothing to do with rain I'm just bone idle.
-
Worked through it.
Had a few positive comments!
Upto date.
But it is only the 4th.

-
