been cleaning for many years but over the last 3 years the number of cleaners have blown out of proportion all down to the credit crunch ( no jobs in diffrent industrys ) a lot of cleaners doing the job now will not stay when the economy goes better
this indusry is being bled and bled the amount of firms dependant on this industry
suppliers
canvasers
wfp fitters
printers
they would feel the pinch when the job market picks up but us cleaners who keep at it will pick up loads of work it will happen in the future

edward your right the residential is getting cheap and way too competitive but i find the commercial is not the same?
not sure why maybe they think they will get more than they can but i dont see no need to quote dearer for commercial, im vat reg too so they will take the hit which proberly helps
