I lost a nice one today, their Gardiner is going to do them, though he did want me back around Easter to do the windows the Gardiner can't do.   

I feel sorry for the poor Gardiner, they've had him smashing about ten tons of logs in their back garden - for months now.  You should see the absolutely massive amount of logs this guy has done.

I just hope he charges them well; but I doubt it; if they've cancelled me for their Gardiner.

When the particle of water holding the spec of dust dries.... the dust blows off 

Does it tho?

I did a conservatory roof a couple of weeks ago, lots of trees around, huge conservatory, very windy.  And the side in the wind was  covered in dust, only noticeable once dried.  Sure, it wiped off, it wasnt on there tough or anything, but neither was it blowing off in the still strong wind.  maybe it needed a force 10....

He's probably charging them £7/8 ph. £10 tops. That's the going rate round here anyway. That's why they always look depressed and why we don't do that many gardens any more

agree, once its dried dirt sticks to traditional cleaned windows. however, with wfp windows are left wet, so dust can get blown onto glass and stick to wet windows.... think bout it. am I wrong anyone?! 

no you aren't wrong but no one will believe you

lost a customer last week because he said i didnt pick my feet up when i walked.  said it was knocking stones off his drive!  nothing to do with the fact that he owed £46 as he'd not paid for 3 months, and i sent him a letter to ask him to pay

Logs fetch money round these parts, so many woodburners, offer to clear them for free. People pay money for logs.

Had one yesterday who said, I like to cancel, not because we are not doing a  bad job, he said in fact we doing an excellent job, but he noticed that THE WINDOWS GET DIRTY MUCH QUICKER  Now this is a new one to me. 

In fact lot of these silly reasons are due to cut back, some people cutting back on their monthly expenses and they feel shy to say they cant afford it.

I got a new customer she said she had a problem with her old windy he never cleaned properly.After I did the job she said that`s a good job. I would come again in eight weeks.The day before the the clean she left a message saying they were still to clean she wanted to wait two weeks.She then got a message from me thanks, but it would be better if she called her old cleaner as I only cleaned if people stuck to an agreed cycle.Bye !

Quarterly cleans are very lucrative.
