IT WILL TAKE YOU LONGER TO CLEAN INSIDES!!the customer often gets you to clean any glass on inside doors and even the odd mirror so charge a bit more.

i cleaned a house on friday £30 outsides/£40 insides.it took me just under 2 hours for both.im happy with £35 an hour on this job.i cleaned some inside door glass and mirrors for her as well.she was very pleased!! ;) ;D ;D ;D

most of the time i refuse insides as i really cant be bothered as i have plenty of outside work but i relent for bigger houses occasionally.

Magic £10 sounds a bit steep for 5 outside windows,I would
 Charge double for the insides,not seen the size of the windows
I would go for about £5 for the outside £10 for the inside

. My minimum price is 10 I'm only new and have been doing ok with this so far,as my work is not that compact wouldn't be worth travel for under 10.

Always ask if they are smokers because if they smoke a lot in the house it will be more work for you.
We usually charge 1.5 for inside cleaning which would make your job £25 in total. Ask them to clear all window sills, net curtains, blinds ect out of the way first so you can whip round them.

same as above. 1.5 times extra for the inside. its always hassle and takes longer. if they smoke needs to be at least twice the outside price for the inside......it makes your equipment filthy and streaks a lot.

If they smoke,spray and scrim will be a 'mare'

i go with 1.5 times more but they move everything

unless its a really awkward one

i have one where they have windows inside the windows and so there 3 sides to be cleaned so obviously charge more

but i never turn down insides its nice easy money , usually do it as last job of the day , get a brew and a chance to warm up in winter :)
