Rich..I have had the same worries....I should be faster, earning more etc etc.....I know what my problem is and that was 1 technique and 2 to much detailing...
I have been trying all different ways of speeding up and so far it seems to be working...a few of the under priced jobs which I quoted at the begining I have been trying my luck...Not so much detailing etc to see if they moan...If they moan and don't want me I haven't lost much as they were bad prices.  You will get quicker...I am but it is taking a while....

I`ve been cleaning now for 8 months and I work this around other commitments. I generally will never work more than 4 - 5 hours and would expect to earn £75-85 in this. I think the key is pricing and work close together.

I`ve just sold off a lot of old work I bought that was bad. £ 5 a house 3-4 bed old grannies who drop u if u put up prices. and upped the rate on a new housing estate near me. I get every new person who moves in started with 6 customers now up to 30. can charge £7 for town house that takes 10-15 mins. Its easy money. So for 8-10 hours work I can earn £ £180 - £200.

But that over two half days. I don`t take breaks though when your working from 9-2 why do you need to have lunch and a break when u get home

So the key get them prices up or find some new work. !!!!!
