Sort of.

We have been quite quiet, not quiet enough to quit but quite quiet.

Been quite steady throughout june and july with new enquiries.

The calls usually drop off into August though when people go on their holidays.

I'm glad my phone has stopped as this month we have 8 schools and 500 student properties to clean on top of our normal work!!  :P

Anyone one who phones up now get told there is a 6 week wait!!  ;D

Going to be a painful month  :'(

ive not noticed a drop yet.im finally getting a foothold on a posh estate a little bit out of my area as words getting around that i do a good job for a fair price.got 2 calls this week.theyve sacked their other cleaner for me. :)

august is generally a bit quieter due to holidays.ive already had a few regulars asking me to skip a clean(monthly jobs)but plenty of work to go at in the next 6 weeks before my holiday! ;) :) :)

Quite busy really with unwelcome add-ons asked for today.

Booked them in for the end of the month after the bank holiday..

Small conny roof for a regular custy £35

Gutter/soffit/vac clean all round on a semi £115

Front gutter/soffit  outside only clean on a semi £35

Also did a warehouse office clean inside and out including some glass partitions on Monday evening/Tuesday morning £325 - not complaining about that one mind!
