Get van ready aprox 08:45, leave house around 09:00 and aim to be back in the door around 15:00...then a further 10-20 minutes mucking around and filling van for the next day.....average about 3 days per week over a 8weekly schedule.

23 hours a week cleaning.

10 hours a week travelling, paper-work, washing cloths, sorting various bits and bobs.

So 33 a week.

I only count work time when calculating what my hourly rate works out at. Other stuff is by the by. Dont care about that stuff at all.

I mean who includes standing on Waterloo Station waiting for the train if they work in London when they work out their hourly rate?

7-45 Start loading up vehicles.
8-30 Off to first job
4-00 Work finished
Then do the admin, phone calls, paperwork
6-30 Finished
Weekends generally a few hours on vehicle and equipment maintanance

Overall probably around the 70 hour/week rate
