Title: pricing help
Post by: Lee GLS on November 03, 2010, 05:06:18 pm

got a call to quote this house, its been refurbished alot of new windows, there are no stickers on the glass, or cement, but dust and grime, and some putty around the edges of the glass. Any ideas what i should charge or how long it should take? i havnt really done builers cleans before.

Thanks
lee

it in chelmsford essex, if it were a normal clean, i would be charging £30, so in and out plus builders clean is going to be alot more than that??

I have never quotes on time, i never get it right, i like to price per window, would it be double or more for a builders clean?

Like somebody said above, charge whatever you would want to earn for a full days wage. For me £150.

only you know how bad the windows are, some builders cleans can be a joke - tape ....

but

you said no tape ....  so if thats correct id prob go £80 - £120 in/out . Depends how bad they are....

thats only going by the pics and if seen in person id prob end up charging more i guess
