I recently took on a customer ( his house backs on to my round) to do just the back of his house because his traditional window cleaner has to walk on his single story extension and has broken a few roof tiles. I only do 3 back windows and 3 skylights on his extension and charge him a tenner.
He says he wants to keep his tradder,( he's a miserable sod )to do the front and sides( which is a traditional roomy 1930s bay window with wrapround porch) because he asked him first and felt guilty sacking him.
Anyway I've been doing it monthly for a few months with no problems, paid on time, back gate unlocked etc. Happy days.....
Yesterday while cleaning his house I was chatting to his wife and she let slip that they pay the tradder a fiver to do the front, the side, and porch .
No wonder they won't get rid of him.?
Anybody else share a customer and is it amicable?
