Shops and the like... sometime before the sun puts in an appearance ! ;D
-
Start at 8 if I am running behind (like tomorrow, bloody weather) otherwise start at 10, finish at 3 :)
-
8am on domestic and as early as possible on commercial.

personally i wouldnt start much before 9 on domestic, they dont want us round whilst theyre getting ready for work, vans hoses in the way...etc
and if theyre having a lie in and we come at 8 they will not be impressed
9 o clock for me. something other than domestic fine before 9 though
-
8am is fine on domestics, commercial as early as possible
-
9 oclock for me normally ( seeing that its 9.30 already)
people dont want you there too early
-
9am for me only because i have to run my lad to college everyday.
But no work today got to have a new windsceen in my car as with all the rain the weekend my car leaked like a lot on the passenger side and noticed a crack under the seal.
And it had to happen on a bank holiday when everywhere is closed
-
Earliest Ive started a commercial is 4 in the morning. Usually start a commercial at 6-7 and domestic at 8. The latest Ive started a commercial is 10:30 at night!!! The latest Ive started a domestic is probably 7, Luke
-
Generally i start at 8.30 on domestics a little earlier if i know they work or kids at school on commercial 7/7.30

paul not on ya new car mate. leak already....unlucky there
-
9 is the earliest for domestics for me. I wouldnt like a window cleaner turning up at my house before then.
-
People are different. Some like you early so they can get on with their day. Others are still in their dressing gowns at 11 oclock and look at you as if you are mad when they finally answer the door.
-
Ask your custys whats the earliest you can start , alot of people are off to work by 7.30 so you would be able to do these first.

Yes a leak carpets soaked about 2" of water in passengers footwell.
Took it to autoglass and they said nothing wrong with the screen.
I turned out to be a water channel where its supposed to run rain water away blocked and just filled my pollen filter up with water and into the car.
Sorted now thank god.
Just waiting for it to dry out now but sucked most of the water out with a vax

You get to know where you can start early. Ive got one domestic that I do at 7ish every two weeks. They have a side gate that they lock when they leave for work at 7.30.
The rest of my domestic round I start about 8am. Never had a problem.
If I work a Saturday morning on houses then I dont start till 9.15 but seeing as I like to finish by noon I dont do that too often as it feels like its not worth it.
As for commercial. Anytime between 6am and 7am.
-
I have one customer, works all week always wants me to come early Saturday morning so she has the rest of the day free. She uses me as alarm clock, opens the door in her nighty. Couldn't care less.

between 7.15am and 7.30am tue, wed and thursday if i started any later i would never get done, been doing this for about 8 years and never had a problem...
