Are we talking hourly rates for paying cleaners, or hourly rates for typical commercial contracts?

Cleaning hourly rates
-
Hmmmmm......that answers my question!! ???
I am going to assume that means the hourly rate that cleaners get paid!
We pay £9.00 per hour for our cleaners who work hard for their money cleaning new builds......however, if you have read another posting of mine today, this may change??

Hi, the more hours the client wants the less they pay, a big customer 70hrs plus will pay alot less than a customer who wants 10hrs a week, my customers range from 100hrs £7.65 to 4hrs £25 per hour, talk to the client find out as much as you can, be open and honest, if they like you or your sales person and that price is ok they will use you, phone them back after the quotes gone in, offer a discount on prompt payment, if I got it right every time i'd be very rich, its trial and error.
I dont think it matters what part of the country you work, most companies pay office cleaners £5 to £6.50 per hour

I dont think that there is a rule of thumb on what to charge the client per hour rates, as one client who wants cleaning for 20 hours a week may have different needs and equipment for another client wanting 20 hours cleaning per week.
Also, you may get away with charging client A £200.00 per week and £250.00 for the same work to client B!!
All depends on the client and how much they are going to pay or what they are willing to pay.

Well, ACS Group, your profile says you are located in The Midlands and your Web Site says Dublin :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\

Well I am new at this and no expert but I will tell you this I take into consideration what the basic rate is I want to pay anyone working for me (friend/relative at the mo) and it has been agreed they will receive a minimum of £6 an hour
I guesstimate a maximum and minimum of hours and then quite frankly I am a very busy, determined and hard worker. I tend to come in right on target and everyone comes ahead. I find if you do not set a time goal then your hourly cleaners will shuffle along and to me this is not acceptable. I quote per job taking into consideration the hours that will be worked. I do an extremely excellent, thorough job ( I have been told). Anyway this was my starting point and now I too am always learning!
Does this sound silly .. again?...
