Job on a ship in Southampton
« on: December 29, 2011, 05:51:59 pm »
We've got a very big job to do on a cruise ship in Southampton at the beginning of January and need to clean up to 200 cabin carpets and some public rooms, so we are looking for guy's that can supply a 2 man team, portable machine, minimum 135psi 3 stage vac, but preferably twin vac, (no Scorpions or Jaguars, too much amperage for the ships circuits) stainless steel pre-spray tank or similar and be able to work to a high standard, but quickly. You would need to clean around 20 cabins per team, starting first thing and be completed by around 2.00pm.
Anyone interested email me with a price:
simon@gerrardscarpetcleaners.co.uk

Now sorted, no more required thanks

Colin,
I've got two portables of my own to crew so you can give me a price for two men if you want.

I should have mentioned, this ship has had norovirus outbreak recently, hence the big clean up operation.
Also, all chemicals will be supplied.

Only trouble with emailing a price is that it becomes a Dutch Auction or a bit like when you get email enquiries from customers perhaps offering a price to cleaners you can work to your budget and if both parties agree then nobody feels that they are getting ripped off.

It's no different than any client asking you for a price to do a job, surely.

The price I supplied took into consideration the 'F' about factor experienced during the CLEAN job earlier in the year.
Sat around on the quay side at some obscene hour of the morning for ages, form filling to be completed, H&S and the rest of hassle factor that comes with doing such projects. Not forgetting the speed you have to work at to complete the task.

If I remember it was £500 for the day but it all depends on what's in the job obviously Simon may have his own workings out.

Yeah that's right Shaun, when I did it about three years ago??? with CLEAN

That was per two man team with one portable, all chems where supplied.

It was a ball ache day though!

Think it's best to set a price then everyone gets the same - it's fairer.

Things are a bit different on my jobs, I know what I'm doing >:(
My way of doing things everyone gets what they want, not what they are given ;)

Can imagine the scene with different people getting different fees, straight overboard!
