Well its been thundering and lightning with snow storm for 1 hour now. Doesn't happen every day does it. Forget windows lol

[no way Jose]

I've become a bit wary working in the rain as customers do not like it. they do think  it's a waste of time and money!! you can get away with it as long as they are showers but if you keep cleaning windows in really bad weather you will loose customers ( whether you like it or not!!). would I be happy seeing a window cleaner doing my windows in a bad, windy and rainy day ? definitely not!!

[PoleKing]

I just dont understand why window cleaners stop work in the rain

If i had a window cleaner, I wouldn't want them cleaned in the rain.
Similar with direct debits. I push them to customers as the best thing ever-but i don't like them for myself.
What works best as a service provider isn't necessarily the same for the customer.
(i do clean in the rain btw-just trying to show balance)

EACH TO THEIR OWN but ive never lost a customer due to cleaning in bad weather and i bet my bank balance is a lot healthier than yours mate!

ive been window cleaning 22 years now.

Daz, I always admire your cheery disposition and positive approach to your business.

I've been in this game 18 years (the last 3 and a half in Ireland). Believe me, if you turned up and tried to clean windows in bad weather here, you'd either get told where to go or not paid!

Best wishes,
John

My thoughts exactly. Said this many times.

[Joey Eastwood]

regardless of what the customer thinks, if its chuffing it down with rain why would you want to stay out in it working unless you absolutely had to? i start earlier or work later another day to catch up if its bad

+1. if its heavy rain or snow customers understand that you not be working.

[SeanK]

I don't think I would keep at this job if I had to work in all weather conditions to make a living, don't know if
I should admire or feel sorry for the guys that do.
More than enough good weather working days over the year to make a good living in this game.
