[davep]

Get ready for an onslaught!

They are too low to make a good profit if you are taking the correct time and using the correct chems..

Lounge £15?  How long does a lounge take?

[*brightclean]

Bedrooms we do for a £10

Lounges take us about an hour but you got to remember it's only cleaning that we do, not brain surgery!!

[davep]

If it takes you a hour and you charge £15.... well you work it out.  Take out van, petrol, chems etc and what are you left with.  Is that on your own or is there 2 of you?   Do you work 52 weeks or is part of this £15 going towards holiday and sick pay?

Maybe a bit of brain surgery will help you get your prices right

  Strange comment for a moderator.

Im not winding anyone up just expressing my views, or is that not allowed

[Joe H]

When you say "we" are kept busy, who are the "we"?

Do 2 or more of you go to one job?
or are you running 2 or more separate operators?
or do you do general cleaning with carpet cleaning added as an extra service?
what machines(s) do you currently operate?

Shaun

Hi Shaun, we normally go to about 5/7 custys houses per day, sometimes we double up, or assist another van. We have a min charge of £50 per call out no matter what we do, on average custys are spending about £68 per visit with us which keeps us busy.

[Mike Halliday]

no I don't!!

Len I've sent you an email so you have my correct email address

[*brightclean]

Does everyone else get an email or is this a secret society forum   

[derek west]

do you move furniture or that extra?

[davep]

So 2 of you are getting £15 per hr?  £7.50 each?  Minus petrol etc?

Think i will lower my prices to match.  

[*brightclean]

do you move furniture or that extra?

We do move furniture, but only light things, not sideboards etc. Moving furniture is free.

We pre-vac, spray our solutions down and extract. Of course extras such as special treatments are chargeable and we have a annual contract whereby the custy pays us a set fee and in return we 'look after' their carpet within that year, abit like an insurance policy, works very well and guarantees us income coming in.
