Title: How much would you charge? (with pics)
Post by: supernova77 on March 12, 2012, 07:17:26 pm: Hi All,

In a previous topic a few said that my prices are a bit "keen"...

I picked this job up on Saturday when out canvassing, and cleaned it today. Most of my work is every 8 weeks, but this one is every 16 weeks... On that basis what would you charge (including the skylight that you can see at the back)?

Post by: Llaaww on March 12, 2012, 07:21:21 pm: £10, but it would have to fit in well.

Post by: bobplum on March 12, 2012, 07:21:53 pm: £20.00 if its every 4 months,you may have to spend longer cleaning it(twice?)

Post by: CLEANCARE WC on March 12, 2012, 07:22:57 pm: every 16 weeks = £18
Title: Re: How much would you charge? (with pics)
Post by: Steve Sed on March 12, 2012, 07:23:38 pm: Depends. If it is on its own I would include travel time. So £20-£25 every 4 months.

I wish ;)

I would have charged £20 for every 8 weeks... The way I see it is that you have to make it your worth while if it only comes round every 4 months!

Post by: Crystal-clear on March 12, 2012, 08:08:48 pm: pretty similar to you , however in order to keep her happy i would do it for £15 not alot of glass at all ,

4 montnly yea £25 so she saves a fiver.
the thing is in 4 months she might cancel you its hard to establish gota be worth your while.
Title: Re: How much would you charge? (with pics)
Post by: niceandclean on March 12, 2012, 08:17:17 pm: £25 as well, but mine would include VAT. In fact I've got a few houses similar style to that that are cleaned 8 weekly at £20.

Post by: DaveG on March 12, 2012, 08:25:50 pm: 25 quid..thats a bit "keen" ;)
Title: Re: How much would you charge? (with pics)
Post by: Slash on March 12, 2012, 08:28:22 pm: I would do that for £25 every 3 months,would take no more than 20 minutes but a less frequency like 4 weely I would charge £15.:)
Title: Re: How much would you charge? (with pics)
Post by: britishwill on March 12, 2012, 08:30:15 pm: Who wants any work thats on that frequency unless its at a good price?
£20 for me as its my minimum charge.
It will always be a pleasure to clean at that price!

Why wouldn't you bother?

Work is work... I have a few houses that are on 16 weekly, that are priced higher than normal, they are always well worth it when they come round.

"can we leave it till next time as we will be away"

sorry the frequency is too long
