Title: pricing for housing assocition
Post by: chanster00 on July 22, 2011, 04:10:53 pm

i live in housing association, my weekly service charge £8.68.
1.56 of that goes to window cleaning,  thats £6.24 a month there is 54 flats were i live!

my question is : is there housing making profit on that? as 54 flats x 6.24 = 336.96 per month seems a little high to be charging for a window clean.

only ask as i have been asked to quote for a different housing firm!

The question is how often are they cleaned? If monthly then it's not too bad I'd have thought.

i would say yes they make money from that,  and would say the price was alittle hgighbut hard to tell without looking at job.

what you pay in service charges are way above what the window cleaner gets paid by the housing association for cleaning the windows.you will also find most housing associations only have the windows cleaned bi-monthly. To actually get the flats you would be expected to come in at around £4 per flat per clean plus £1 per window per clean for the landing windows.
