It would be a 6 pound job.
Around here you'd be looking at about the same be difficult to push it higher.

.....I'd tell them £10 minimum, if a neighbour falls in for their whole house I'd put it down to eight, gives them an incentive to tell the neighbours.....

+1 except the bit about dropping the price in the event of a cartel

.... :D  :) thanks eandm ~ not sure what you mean by cartel mate?.

When it would normally be below the £10 (if this wasnt my minimum) i explain its the setup that is the fixed cost regardless of number of windows cleaned, therefore if more houses get cleaned for the same setup i can drop them below the minimum.....gets them drawing the neighbours in...you dig? its worked for me on serveral ocasions...but each to theri own...leave the cartels to OPEC and British banks....(oil price/LIBOR)  :)

I'd charge £10 for the front only (our minimum charge) or £15 all round.  To be honest I've only ever had all round jobs, not sure if it's the maths that gets them or my charm lol
