i employ 22 staff but the majority are not involved in the window cleaning side, i have relatively few contracts but they are largish ones, the downside to this is if you lose one it effects your business a lot more, for instance i have recently lost one very large contract that we have had for 14 years it has gone in house if we hadnt lost it i would of had 38 employees.

Just me

But I have friends that are wc's, so if I get a big job on they are always there to lend a hand. (And vice versa)

I did have around 450/500 custies on the books, plus schools and small commercial stuff.
But I took a year out, and am now building it all back up again :
It's slow going, but the numbers are creeping up.

Trevor,

Thats a good effort mate, 22 staff is without doubt a big company.

Do you employ general cleaning staff?
