I ve been asked to quote for this 6 bed detactched house in West Sussex
i only have the front pic (Sorry) however there is only one side window and the rear is exactly the same except where the front door is a 3 pane french window (i.e. a normal french door + 50% more)
im figuring £20
the reason i ask is because the bloke who owns this one is away a lot i.e. 6 weeks at a time (he lives on his own unbeleavably) yet wants it cleaning every 2 weeks!!!!!

£20 every four weeks,but if he wants it doing every two weeks and you do not have to travel far i would charge £15 as it would be easy money with wfp.
-
£15 sounds spot on, it all looks really easy access so on a maintainance you'd be looking 15mins max
-
Assuming there is decent access David, I reckon you are spot on with £20. First cleans are often more but as you would have an easy time doing it fortnightly, I reckon you can let that bit go.
-
£20 for 16 windows????
Admittedly if it's in Sussex you'd want a decent price, but I do one almost identical in about 15 mins or so.
At £10 it's one of my best accounts.
I'd probably ask £13.
-
£20 no matter how often he wants it cleaning if more than 5 weeks then price goes up?

I made it 19 myself Squeaky plus it sounded like the back door had quite a bit of glass on top of that making it 20. Maybe I misunderstood the description but thats how I read it.

Sorry, I mis-counted mate.
I wasn't including the tiny thin ones, as they're 10 seconds max.
Still, that's £1 a window for easy squeegee windows.
That's a lot. :-\

one account, i can tell you is mine for life! ;D
I actually taught this bloke first aid (about a year ago) and he saved his daughters life with the methods i taught him (she had a heart attack) - he is very grateful, hence why he wants me to do his windows .... and hence why i dont want to over charge him
i spoke to him this evening and told him £15 per fortnight or £20 per 4 weeks.
agreed on fortnight so a bonus!

Didn't realise it was a "friend's job". Probably worth small reduction then

£1 a window is OK for this area IMO. Remember, we have higher house prices here so bigger mortgages to pay and living near Gatwick Airport adds to cost of living here.

I'd say £40

Being in west Sussex I would have gone £17, if he had a posh car in the drive and was loaded though I'd have tried for the £20.
