Hi Lisa
It looks like you are there for 2.5 hours per weekly visit.
Why quote for £9.50 per hour....which comes to £23.75 per visit......Why not quote something like £30.00 per visit (and divide the bill between client 1 & 2 however you like....)
The client will not know your hourly charge, just the total.
If you divide the £30.00 charge by the 2.5 hours.......you have your £12.00 per hour mark
Just a thought, that was all, because a lot of cleaners out there in the forum world, seem to get stressed over how much to charge per hour. £9.00 per hour, £10.50 per hour or £12.00+ per hour.
You have to charge the best rate you can get it at......as long as you can do the cleaning to the standard you are selling them that you can do.
On the tenders I do, the only hourly rate on my breakdown of costs is the staff wages. The rest including ins., uniforms, profit, management fee, chemicals, equipment etc etc and the client sees a lump sum at the bottom which is divided into a weekly charge (divided by 52) and the per annum charge. I have never worked the whole quote by a per hour charge.
Kind Regards
Tim
