Lets say somebody has a minimum fee of £10 per house (even ones on trad equipment should by rights perhap charge more than wfp cleaners). Would it be hard to clean a minimum of 20 houses in a day??

Half pint? There's some on here who couldn't handle a half pint! Is that why they go to places like Saudi Arabia and Iran on holiday, so as not to risk temptation?

£200. A day, that's so naughties.
Catch up

£200 is no mean feat in some areas, in my area yes i can do it, but its a full days graft and cant always be arsed to push myself that much

Personally it wouldnt make much sense earning a grand a week unless i was investing it back into growth ( which i will be doing by the way, being a sole trader makes no financial sense in my situation whatsoever) ,otherwise id come out with probably half of it after tax, N.I and child maintenance payments.

For some it might suit but for me it doesnt make sense to earn that much

i used to find earning £200 a day impossible adam when i first came on here 9 years ago.i thought other guys on here were telling fibs.now after quite a few price rises and taking on new work at higher prices over the years i find it pretty easy.some days i can earn £250 quite comfortably in 5 hours.others slightly longer.some weeks its under a grand and other weeks a fair bit over.swings and roundabouts.as long as my turnover is around £40k-£45k a year im happy as i can live on that very comfortably.im left with around 30k profit after all taxes,expenses and insurances are taken out.i have around 6 - 7 weeks off a year.(2 wks at xmas,2 or 3 wks for holidays and 1 or 2 for DIY/sickness or really bad weather)

I don't find it impossible daz, just hard work..it's definitely doable.

If I worked 9-4 I would do about 200-250

I'm just comfier around the 150 mark,as I don't feel the extra graft is worth  the money, but that's purely down to my financial position and my end goals. I typically work 9-2

According to HMRC  most wouldn't be getting half of that daily, but then that proves nothing, wink wink.

15k a year expenses, LOL. they must have seen you coming when you bought that new van, bet they closed up the shop and went on a weeks holiday after you left.

[Shrek]

Earning £45k a year , you would pay £6698 tax & £4420 National insurance.

Take home pay is £33881 , that’s without expenses .... I think

This is why one should not disclose figures.....theres a need to defend or justify .

Slightly related,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,  I have seen a window clean work traditionally in an ex mining village working from a BMW and wearing trousers n shirt.
Now thats just taking the P, but how could you justify price increases as well..

[Og]

What's wrong with shirt and trousers?

[Marc Stock]

Anyway going back to subject.

I never turn work away.

I just accept the work that's right for me

[Slacky]

It depends on the kind of work.  Had a phone call today, the lady sounded nice, but I know the street and it's not upmarket. Parking problems too.

I didn't know how to say "Sorry, pet, but I don't think you're rich enough" so I said I'd come and quote.

I very probably won't.

Neighbour?
