start at 8 every morning any one says anything i tell them i worked in a factory for 28 years starting at that time and thats what im used to  ;D ;D

Commercial 7/8 am - domestic 8.30 to 9.30. I need to take a leaf out of Stan's book really and train my domestics a bit more on this one now the longer daylight hours are here.

9.30 for residential.

My customers don't want me banging around whilst they are having their breakfast/getting the kids off to school and I respect that.

I have regular customers who want an early clean before they go to work. Usually start at 8 but only with customers who are expecting me.
