I have about 27 jobs to do some bungalows and houses, nothing big big but a few have conservatorys, I need to get them done as I'm away for a few days. Would you get them done on a 8am til 6pm day.
-
Nope
-
id easily get them done 9am-430pm if very compact.not a hope in hell if spread out.i regularly get 25 done in a day on compact estate work.no probs. ;)
-
Nope,but i wouldnt even try :)
-

Dazmond , you are ovbiosly not cleaning them too a high stander are a lot of the house wife's out when you clean them . That way maybe you miss some bathroom or side windows .23 houses in 5 hours ? I already think some people exzagerate on this forum .

This is dazmond were talking about, remember he is a motivatioal
Icon on this forum. He wouldnt lie to us. But yes of course you
Can do it if u crack on without slacking

Most people on this forum go on about how many houses they have at like £15.00-25.00...
So how on earth can one man in a van do 27 jobs in 1 day? That would be £405 if they are all £15.00.... Very unrealistic

i have lots of work at £15-£25 and higher but their NOT small 3 bed semis on estates!and i dont clean 27 of them in a day mate! ;D
-
£7-£8 houses and this could be realistic, but i have never heard anyone on this forum mention any house priced under£10.00...

I have to agree. ..
I can't see how some people are cleaning 20.odd houses a day and doing a proper job ::)roll

easy if their right next to each other on an estate with a high flow.monthly cleans.extreme pole and brush,500L tank van mount. :).if you work 6 hours "on the glass" time its only 4 an hour.i tend to do 4 or 5 an hour on compact 3 bedders.
some of us are very organised,efficient and dont hang around rinsing all day.by the way i only get about 3 complaints a year on the odd window here and there(usually a run or two from a top rubber seal). ;)

Thats 4 an hour without any breaks what so ever.... That just doesnt happen, we all have 5 mins or so on our phones a day, plus dinner breaks
-
Just to say I didn't get them all done I did 24 in the end and finished them up today
-
Now time for a few days away thank god.

I don't stop.
Snack while I'm on the go.
Daz seems to work hard but is realistic.
Not digging at anyone in particular at all but just 'cause one man can't doesn't mean someone else can't either.

It would depend on what your definition of a proper job is. Maybe Daz the Raz does enough to get by and be paid. Which isnt the service some wish to offer. Some prefer to take more pride in their job than others and don't wish to have that rush rush scenario. Dont forget Daz has an addictive personality, so he says, its all or nothing for those guys - no balance. On the go, all the time. They have targets and they've failed if they don't meet them.

That is a very good line, Matt.
Do you have an addictive personality? Can you relate, or do you observe?

People cant work 6or7 hours without a break surely? Its lonely working alone!

For gods sake when are you guys going to learn that wfp doesn't do a first class job, it does a
reasonable or passable job.
As was mentioned in a previous post the fact that the frames are bright and clean takes the notice of the glass.
So get the job done and stop messing about trying to achieve the impossible.
Doesn't matter if you spend 10 or 30mins on a property I guarantee that there will still be the odd run or spotting
on the glass.
I think its OCD that stops most from achieving Dazmonds targets.

Some can bud.
Loneliness is subjective.

Agree to a point. I think it's fear rather than OCD though.
Some people still don't believe in their own kit.

I set myself targets ;)

i said "on the glass" time.NOT INCLUDING LUNCH/COFFEE BREAK/CHAT WITH CUSTIES! :)
generally i have 30 mins for lunch and thats it.sometimes another 30 mins for coffee/breaks.but "on the glass" time means exactly that!working! ;D

Yep 6 hours is no problem, i go out at ten generally ;D and work till
four maybe five and the only break i normally have is if i have to move
and drive to another job.

Wow! Your spelling's improved in the few days since you've been on this forum "Steven"! Just the odd spacing and punctuation issue to deal with and you'll be a spelling and grammar Nazi like me!
