Title: Beast from th East
Post by: KS Cleaning on March 05, 2018, 05:39:31 pm: Started back today after the recent snow storms, windows and frames were absolutely filthy, it was like doing a day full of first cleans :'(
I've also had two phone calls today asking when I'm due around again, both from an area which was cleaned under 3 weeks ago!The next four weeks are going to be hard going if today is anything to go by :'(

Been doing commercial and some properties that get cleaned every fortnight, and it looked like they hadn't been cleaned in 6 months.
Absolutely filthy!

Either way I'm glad too be back at work, nothing worse than forced time off.

True Daz but no doubt a few customers will have a cry about it after the papers blow it out of all proportion ;D

I am indeed Mick, although it's not been unleashed on the roads for about a week now! I read on another thread that you have treated yourself to a 435, nice one mate ;) 8)
