Title: Purchasing commercial work.
Post by: PurefectWindowCleaning on February 20, 2012, 06:40:43 pm: I have been offered a large number of shops etc to buy off a local window cleaner. He hasnt gave me the price yet but was wondering what the 'going rate' was for this type of work?
Im not yet aware how much this work generates a week/month...

Cheers

I know the shops that he cleans, and the vast majority are long established business's, not shops that only last a year or so.
