I made it about £50 for the outsides based on the area of glass, but the one in the roof looks like a nightmare for access. Not even sure it can be done with WFP from the ground, definitely not the roof sides. Then there's the issue of paintwork - they look like wooden sash Georgian, if the paint isn't perfect there's a problem with streaking.
SO: Start at £50. Add on at least £20 for the difficulty aspect. Then another £20 for flaky paint problems. Then another £35 "rich tax"
Aston Martin etc - be prepared to give an absolutely first class job, but charge for it.
total:£105 outside.
Inside is a whole different situation. Not only will you have to negotate priceless antiques on the window sills and unbelievably heavy furniture in front of every window, but every pane will have to be cleaned by hand, either small squeegee or leather and scrim, so it's going to take three times as long as the outs. Then there's that horrible staircase (roof conservatory). Access will probably be extremely difficult as it is above the stairs (you can see the landing bannister inside)
So: insides at least three times outs (more if they want the inside of the glass roof doing
)
Total so far: £420
Then it's a one-off. I always charge at least 50% extra for these (we don't do many :
) because they're a pain in the a**e.
I wouldn't really expect to get the job, but then I wouldn't realy want it, there's much easier ways to earn a crust
If it was the first clean of an ongoing contract, I'd go for about £350- £400 with a subsequent rate of £300-ish.
