Just after some advice.

If a client books thirty mins do you give them some leeway say five mins for a shower or does the thirty mins include shower time.

I've been quite relaxed about it as long as they don't take the piss but getting lots more requests for a shower due to the hot weather.

Had a guy today wanting a shower before and after our half hour session.

Speaking for myself, I allow extra time for showering (before and after, if necessary) and it’s never affected appointments. (I sometimes have a client a half hour later).

I’d rather have a clean, fresh smelling client, prepared to enjoy himself. If someone refused a shower in this heat, I’d insist on them having one.

I charge enough that the extra few minutes is no big deal anyway plus a lot of my clients don’t take up the full time they’ve booked.

I’ve heard of escorts refusing showers. I find it unbelievable but they’re obviously happy with sweat and cheese. I also don’t like rushing clients who’ve paid a lot of money to spend time with me. I’ve rarely had anyone in 10 years take the piss.

As an example, I offer rimming. I am fastidious about anal cleanliness. I’d rather be shot in the head at point blank range than rim a client who hasn’t washed!

Horses for courses I suppose.

I don't think it's unreasonable to want showers before and after in hot weather, and I think the key (like you said) is whether they're taking the piss.

I would consider asking for a shower after the booking time has finished to be taking the piss, but a few minutes before so that by the time they've dressed and left it's a little over I'm not bothered about. My bookings tend to finish on time because my clients are busy and have places to be, but I appreciate not everywhere is like that.

I don't insist (especially when it just means more laundry for me) but then I rarely get smelly punters and I don't do OWO or rimming so it's up to them

I accept that in this heat it's ok to let them shower  but some want to take forever and it cuts into their booking time if they take the piss .

There is a way round that. Turn the boiler off if they taking all day.

Yes I can't stand anyone unclean or smelly. This guy booked half an hour but it was 45 mins by the time he left.

I decided not to work today as way to hot to work inside.Weather back to normal in a few days so shouldn't be too much of an issue soon.

I stopped allowing a shower for some time.
One smashed the shower head (not on purpose)
and it went broken.  You know how much "plumbers"
charge...............  Shower door was also damaged,
(again, not on purpose)
 
I can get very costly - had to fix the toilet as well,
not just once.
The way they use it proved to be a liability-the type of clients,
who's not too careful with fixtures. Also on a privacy front
I was quizzed by a maid, who was listening "why constantly using it?"
in the past.  I wouldn't go into other details of my experience elsewhere.....

Clients are paying for your time. The 30 mins starts when I’ve been paid irrespective of what they want to do in this time.

If they make a big deal about it not coming out of the time I would ask them to kindly book an hour. Then you’re not out of pocket.

It takes 2-3 mins to have a shower and wash your body so it shouldn’t be such a bug bear most men don’t have sex for 30 mins let’s be honest.

Most of my clients arrive already showered but I've had 2 today that have tried to shoehorn 2 showers into their 30 minute appointments. One took 13 minutes to shower, dress and leave at the end, just taking the piss
