6 weekly. Harder for the 6weeklies to go 3 monthly than a monthly going bi-monthly. 6weekly is ideal as windows are noticeably dirty, but not too dirty. It beats doing bi-monthlies. I always ask customers if they would like monthly or 6weekly and most favour 6 weekly which suits me fine unless it's large, large houses or commercial.

None of the above.  Most of mine are meant to be six weekly.

8 weekly in the main...the odd 12 weekly for a couple of big jobs...but 8 weekly is the norm.

most of my customers would hate me to come monthly and the ones that are monthly, a lot of them ask me to go fortnightly.....    i must be a window keep cleaner and not a window cleaner..

i'm gonna have to start prioratising my work aswell because i nearly got the sack by a couple of custys (monthlys) for being 2 months late, i usually do my fortnightlys first because if the weather turns they cant be done the following week where as monthlys can be done the week after..

biggest majority of mine is 4 weekly, but I let my customers decide. I have weekly cleans, but thats shops, and do some residentials 8 weekly and even 12 weekly.

Customers always ask me how often do I think they should be done, and I ask...

"That depends...",
"...Do you want them maintained clean, or just cleaned when they are dirty"

And they always say maintained, so I suggest trying 4 weekly and changing it if they want once they see the biuld up on the glass, but most just stick to 4 weekly.

I am suprised to here people saying they have alot of 2 weekly jobs. Is that shops or residential.

 ;D
