I trad all my shops, pubs and bungalows. I went back to trad on a number of small properties, because it was quicker. Other jobs its much faster, so I have to use both methods.

Its also old fashioned. The Dinasores use to do it for Fred Flintstones. ;D ;D 8) :o

One of the biggest mistakes that people do when going to WFP is trying to do the whole round 100% WFP.
I generally do patio doors and conservatories trad and the rest of the house WFP.
However if there is only one upstairs window on the back and a porch or conservatory I take the hose only as far as I have to, creep around the corner and do the upstairs and then come back and do not only the conservatory trad but also the downstairs.
Many of my house have many combinations, some are all WFP and others have some trad thrown in especially on the backs.
Do what is best for YOU not your customers, save time and water by allowing trad to have a role in your business but allow WFP to tell YOU what will help get your round done quicker and more efficent.

If the conservatory is new or sheets water then WFP is fine - but often older conservatories bead and take up a lot of water which can be saved especially if the conservatory is large or ornate.
Also getting down the side of conservatories can be a pain with cramped conditions or an obstacle course across the garden.
