Cleaning windows in AL5, honestly.
Written window cleaner to window cleaner. This is the ground truth the lead sites have never worked.
The glass. Work in Harpenden splits cleanly: sashes, small panes and the odd leaded light near the centre, quick modern glazing on the estates. Price the difference between leaded lights and modern units honestly and the week runs itself. Some 503 homes a year change hands across AL5 — every one a doorstep with no window cleaner attached to it yet.
The parking. Estates: park on the drive. The centre of Harpenden: allow five minutes. That's the entire plan. The middle of Harpenden wants timing; everywhere else wants nothing but a handbrake and a hose. Hard-water region: high dissolved minerals mean anything that dries on the glass shows, so local cleaners filter their water down to near-zero and let the panes dry spotless on their own.
The round. The round in AL5 works around Harpenden, Batford, Bamville Wood, Fiddler's Hill and Hatching Green. Around 12,131 households live here, and the ones who take a window cleaner keep them — 4-weekly, year round, years on end. That's not a lead list — that's a round, built once and kept.

What owning AL5 is actually worth
Put it the way you'd put it on the doorstep: one kept house pays for the page, near enough to the pound, every single year. And unlike a lead site, the second house doesn't cost you a penny more.
