Smashed it out this week!

[davewindowcleaner]

I was supposed to trad a few houses last week but for some reason I didn't feel up to it, if they wasn't so fussy about how they like their windows cleaned then I would of done it by pole.

Unfortunately the few oap I cleaned are good payer for a small houses so I put up with it.

Think the cold weather we are getting now especially the cold wind is getting harder to motivated myself getting the ladder off the roof rack.

 

[Dave B]

It takes just as long or quicker to get a ladder off than it does to set up the wfp gear

I think we all just get lazy and can't be arsed with tradding lol

Thought u liked your tradding Dave?

If u mean me yeah I do but I rather wfp at this time of the year

 

[Dave B]

I do mate

But when i have my wfp gear out and done the tops it is a faff to pack it all up then get the my trad gear out

I trad bottoms quite a bit though to save water but i can see why others can't be bothered

Only a couple of jobs i actually take my ladders from my garden nowadays lol

Damo will back me up that i am a fast tradder and am happy to do it

First week back Where you all Been?The pro's (or mugs)amongst us just keep working 52weeks of the year

I earn enough in 50 weeks to cover the odd two weeks off /emoticons/tongue.png

i even convinced commercial contracts to wait. Smaller places were fine, one through a hissy fit but we buttered them up with a free internal clean (20 mins max tbh on the inside)

On a small commercial @daveyboy1 was about 20-30 mins quicker than me BUT i use the one pass method. So one hand is doing the application and one hand is using the blade. So i think dave would be 30-40 mins quicker than average joe bloggs tradder tbh.

If i could work in Dave to be a partner in business i really would. I think we would be a good team tbf.

I will have to try and work harder then for next year.

End of the month is always really busy for me doing a lot of large monthy jobs as well as the weekly stuff it Ment I had to go and do a bit leaving them or moving jobs wasn't an option to be honest it did me a favour my wife would of had me out spending money.

Hope your well Damo and business is good?

 

[Damo]

More streamlining this year, dumping more work and putting prices up!
