Also when doing add-ons like gutter clearing, FSG's, pressure or softwashing (SH mix) it don't matter if it's raining or not surely?

[Mick Kent]

I took today off! Far too wet and windy. I have a little respect for my domestic customers to not clean in this type of weather, if i was desperate for the money then maybe i would but i choose not too.

[Smurf]

Everyone has to make that call at some point if/when required for safety reasons too.
Not just the customer may or may not like it as my own safety still comes first.

Its all about educating your customers as i like to call it.
I also educate certain customers into making a coffee for their window cleaner, as in, if you dont ask you dont get. Ive found that if i ask once, every time im there they ask now 

I personally prefer not to accept more than 1 brew a day for 3 reasons
1- some people don't know how to make a decent brew
2- some people buy rubbish coffee
3- there's only so much you can drink before you need a pee which then slows the job down as tea and coffee are diuretics

these quotes always make me laugh, what a load of drivel..its simply down to personal preference. The rest of the weeks weather were i am looks ok, so i chose today to work until it started raining heavily then stopped had the weather looked bad all week i may have done some extra.

there becomes a point where carrying on becomes idiotic.

Theres a difference between working in light rain to working in a storm

In my case, if it hammers down I'll sit in the van and go back out when it eases. Only one day in 6 years has been sacked off.

[DaveG]

I also kno a chap at the slighest hint of rain or the very fine drizzle we get, will pack up n call it a day. Its like trying to find any excuse NOT to work..

I'm like that!

It's pointless trying to clean windows in the rain.  My customers wouldn't pay if I did.

Nothing to do with the customers why I don't bother

spent 2 hours doing the insides and when it came to the outside thought better of it

Seems it has been worse in other areas, here in Bucks we have had heavy showers wind sunshine and cloud ... but to be fair I'd crack on any how, I would never keep up otherwise. Just wait in van when it's bouncing off floor then when it calms down get on with it.
seems few on here have 1000's of jobs earn millions and work on their own and still manage to fit it in ....... super heroes pmsl

Lightweight. Just wear a hat. A 10 gallon hat would seem best.

[Tom White]

you dont have to stay in all day.you could go to the gym or do some xmas shopping.enjoy yourself!

We were in the gym for 9.30 am, we had lunch down town and a mince around the shops.

It was quite a nice day.

Lashing down with rain here though; there's been flooding.
