Do you both do the same house at the same time?

I'm a one man band. Still new to WFP.

I'm trying to do each individual  houses' windows in an order that tries to keep drips from upstairs onto downstairs to a minimum.

I find that sometimes I'll go around and do all the upstairs first, then start back at the beginning doing the downstairs. This time delay helps. It does depend on the house of course as I will normally do the all the front then all the back or vice versa.

However, if there are two of you, don't you find you're too quick starting on the downstairs to allow drips from above to stop?

depends on the round and house size !

where we have more than 1 house within 100 meters we start at the furthest ones working back to the van
if it's a stand alone house then we either have 1 do the rear and 1 the front or if larger and access ok
then we both start at the back ( one accessing from the left the other right ) and work back to the van

Depends on how many and how close together in 1 location but you just seem to naturally find best way of working together.

If its just 1 house I do front then do slip / envelope so whilst im doing this Joe will have rears done even if conny ... then who ever idle will wind reels in.

We have a 2 man Brodex system which works really well. 2 reels, I have the larger pole slx 22 and my wife has the clx 3 section and we do a house each. Really quick. But sometimes there may be a few windows she cannot reach so I pop and do those and then off to do my house. Never worry about drips from upstairs. We have a splitter ready in the van just in case one of the pumps fail so at least we can carry on working for the day.
If there is just one house then I clean the windows, front or back where they are highest and Angela cleans the what is left. Works well. Saves us having 2 longer poles - one short and one long - simples!

Saw a vid on Ewetube of someone who drapes a scrim over their brush and gives the sill a quick wipe to remove worst of the drippy water .
I also saw on one of Waggas vids that he has an attachment on the back of his angle adaptor which he wraps scrim around for wiping at height...
 Im still putting my kit together so im not too sure  whether  that that may alleviate the issue. Im sure the more experienced will let us know if this works or not.

I work with my Missis; the way we work is that I use her for all our compact or large stuff.  On residential we'll split up and work on separate houses.

I normally save my drive-betweens up - I don't think it's worth both of us doing them together - and when she has a day off, or when I drop her off and pick up more water, I'll head out and do the 'fanny about stuff' by myself.

Occasionally she will help with a 'drive between', normally where we've compact work and a couple of spare jobs near them.  I normally just pole these myself but she helps with setting up and moves my hose about so I can work really quickly without any messing.

Also, don't worry about drips; they generally don't interfere with the quality of the clean.

if only a single house then we just do one round back one round front,

or if there is 2 houses near each other and hose reach one on each house.
