Anyone working with there wife is a nutter not a window cleaner.

[SherwoodCleaningSe]

I would with my wife, on all kinds of work, commercial, residential, wfp and trad. She's about the best window cleaner I've worked with and we've been at it for 15 years.  I suppose it is a bit sad though when were still speaking about poles, hoses, squeegee rubbers and customers at 9pm in the evening.

One of the positive aspects of working together is that we do spend time together talking; especially at lunchtimes.  There never seems to be any pressure for us to spend 'time together' when we're not working because we spend an inordinate amount of time together during the day.

Saying that, we're both members of our local running club, we sometimes train together, and we regularly go to races together.  This weekend we're away camping at a weekend-long fell race competition and we're in training to do a mountain marathon together (which includes overnighting in a tiny tent after miles of running/freezing/starving/blisters/fatigue/fighting with each other).

It takes about 10 years, but eventually couples do get on well together when they work with each other.

Sometimes; probably; maybe???

[Michael Peterson]

lol we used to work together, shes preg now , its great for business as tosh said and can work you just got to learn how to talk to a woman and not make them walk off

What do you mean by real? Would it be the speed you can work at or the skills that they have. Either way the she's doing well.

I've worked with and have subcontracted a fair few window cleaners in the past. I've paid good money for good window cleaners, but even the best are about the same speed as my wife, however speed alone doesn't make a great window cleaner, other things like quality of work and customer relations do.

In a months time I'm doing a big secondary school, the Mrs will do the insides with a couple of subbies and I will do the outs wfp with a subbie, I expect her to be faster than the hired help even though the hired help is very good.

That's always a good thing.

My missus works with me sometimes.

She does all the talking and talking and talking to customers and I do the work which suits me fine.

lol. He can oggle all the ladies he wants; I'm too busy oggling the lads

[A & J Owen Window Cleaning]

I would say that husband and wife teams either work really well or they are a total disaster. It all depends on whether you can work as a team and keep work/home separate in my opinion.
Customer wise you can't lose. It is easier to pick up work; there's no doubt about that.
I have talked to one or two ladies who tried window cleaning but struggled in the winter with the cold but that doesn't bother me 

[Positivity]

Sometimes get a bit impatient with Nicky 'cos she loves chatting to the customers but it's not time wasted she get loads of info and I can get on with sorting the gear out.
She keeps the book, change, writes the tickets out and posts them while I'm packing up.
When ever I get a little bored I can always stroke her thighs and cop a bit of a feel etc.. you can't do that working with your mate or emloyee
On second thoughts with some of the characters on here you probably could

[heath verrall]

Well I must say , what a great few days we have had cleaning windows together, its gone better than I thought , she has got us some new custys too.

if you are thinking about doing the same as us GO FOR IT .
