What Do You Do!

[iluvwindows]

What do you do regarding your round(s) when the weather turns sour do you skip and do them next month or do you let it rollover to the following week? seem rolling everything over seems the best option imo...

 

[All Round Cleaning]

I just pick up whenever I can as I only work 1 day per week lol .

 

[Gremah]

does a bear poo in the woods?

 

[rcproperty]

move it to the next day and so on,

 

[stevelewis]

Yeah same as RC said, i didnt go myself today so just gunna do todays work tomorrow

 

[Shine Window Cleaning]

move it to the next day and so on,

and what do you do next month(when you've caught up?)....Do you go 4 weeks from the clean date(and lose a weeks £££), or go 'early' next month and risk annoying some customers? Eg: if you fall behind 1 week, do you catch up and return 3 weeks later?

 

[Tuffers]

What's the odds on catching up and getting ahead of yourself with our weather? Do what you can when you can and if you catch up, just hope for rain and have a day or so off. It don't feel so bad if the weather is shite.

By leaving then till the next month will lose you hundreds, do them whenever you can, possabily before the lot u have due...just work longer days when u can.,...Just mean 4/6 weeks round, you may get a day off due to the rain 4/6 weeks ago., but to be fair, the weather always turn bad, so those days off may mean you are still catching up.

Eg: if you fall behind 1 week, do you catch up and return 3 weeks later?[/quote']just go 4/8 weeks from the date you clean them,

If I get to far behind I pick & choose. Basically the nice custies, the dearest houses, the best payers get done first. Ones I'm not to concerned about I leave till last. Remember they can tell you to miss them out anytime so it works both ways. My motto. Keep the good ones happy. Bloody snow

 

[harunh]

Never miss them cos ya robbin yaself

 

[M.K Cleaners.co.uk]

I dont miss them. Either clean in the rain or hire extra help. If its happining often you cant be factoring in weather.

Theres 2 window cleaners about here that have 5 days work. I mean what is the points in that? You wont get round it al without working weekends or being extremely late. Im in Scotland though will be different for others places.

Me personally Im not going over 3 1/2 days work for window cleaning.

 

[harunh]

I want 4 days fully booked a week /emoticons/smile.png 20- 25 customers a day 400 customers on my books /emoticons/smile.png

 

[CNS-southwest]

Just move it all

Along, you should never specify an exact date that you will be doing it, I always say for example: we will be round aprox every 6 weeks, depending on weather and other unforeseen issues.

 

[Posh]

That's exactly what I say. Never give a specific day esp in winter. Approx is fine.

 

[harunh]

I let them no i myt always b a few days early or few dats late

 

[stevelewis]

My customers know that i can never make it bang on 4 weeks every time and they dont mind as if i am late its only a couple days, work 4 days a week on the windows and fri/sat do my glazing jobs

 

[GMcleaning]

agreed, i dont stick to an exact date for any of my customers, i tell them they get done on either the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th week of the month, and i keep them in that week, by being specific your just making a rod for your own back
