NO end of tenancy cleans.....

There's some easy money to be made with these if you stick a cheeky little quote in.

I do a fair few of them (we've an army barracks up the road).  £50 for an officers house; takes two of us about 15 minutes.  £35 for a soldier's quarter; could take 10 minutes, but we drag it out to 15 minutes.  ;D

Never late with my rounds.

Always on time.

If your customers are used to your schedule and know you'll turn up (eventually) then no problems.

Window cleaners stress about schedules, customers rarely! Although I do have a couple of 'Hard to please merchants' most are not that bothered.

To set your mind at rest my whole round is 2 monthly minimum and currently cleaning Friday 18th May - bit behind but Hey Ho! No calls or texts asking where I am. Apart from the ones I've sacked anyway.

I lose money if I get behind schedule.....that's what I'm mainly concerned about not the customers! ;D

Daz, you always say that, it’s not true though. If you’ve more work than you can get round on schedule but still do your target earnings you’ve not lost anything. You’ve just more work than you can handle.
When he's got a full round he'll realise.  ;D

ill never have a "full round"  again..... ;D

You’re losing out then. A highly inefficient way of running a cleaning business.

Exactly ! and its all extra income that I save up year on year as an emergency fund.
I'd hate to be so organised and regimental with my round. It would bore the hell out of me doing the same thing week in / week out.
