Title: How To Price Help
Post by: SeamusCampbell1982 on April 13, 2012, 09:12:51 pm

Hello,

I am going to be dropping Quotes of tomorrow for the first time. I don’t want to start building a round on poor prices, so can someone let me know roughly what to charge?

Thanks….

I guess it is around £1.00 for an average size window and £1.50 for a lager window if access is easy enough and add £1.00 to every job for good luck  ;D

I have a few Conservatories to price also, and was thinking around £12-15 is this about right?

The house pricing seems about right, for anything like a bay window or french windows you want to be aiming at about £1.50 to £2. I think most people charge about £5 for a conservatory but if you can get £12-£15 then you can at least try.

hello seamus how are ye???

sounds about average although it does depend where you are obviously.
Coming from glasgow myself , i know it is slightly less for the average domestic to where i live at the moment in south east england.

Try seeing how many houses you can do in an hour and roughly aim for £20 to £30 an hour to start , also depending if you are trad or wfp , and build from that.

so many variables only you know what you realistically need to earn per hour.

once you have a few , you will also find you will get loads through recommendation or other customers in the area who see you working as well  as advertising , especially via a website which is a must i believe.

price is important but not always the main factor. If ye do a good job you will alwys pick up customers , as well as being friendly

very best of luck to ye



best wishes

I've aimed for £30 an hour which i find is quite easily achieveable in my area. I look on here at what some people say they are pricing jobs at and i find it amazing as i know if i went in at those prices i wouldn't get any work. Be realistic in what you can try for but dont undersell your self just to get a job. I'm still building my round up but today i walked away from 2 jobs as i aint working for stupid rates.
