£600?
-
Next Door was charged £875 by another company and so they snapped my hand off. The house is worth £600k

They will. Just as you're about to finish the roof. Or they'll just take your ladder away.

I got a new job today as well. It's only a mere £25. By the time I'd spoken to the customer, had a look around his house, exchanged pleasantries, nearly 50 minutes had gone by.
I'd love to know the secret in getting so much work in such a short period of time, which includes those that are either out or say no thanks, and then agreeing the price in no time at all.

my canvasser got 330 quid in yesterday averaging 12 quid a house rang most of them to confirm details etc and they all seem decent enough but he was out from 12-9 i think
-
So if it's £600! How long do you fetching it will take you?
-
It was a culmination of hard work.
I leaflet the area and keep going back until i have contacted every door. I keep a list of door numbers and Its taken over a week to accomplish this one one street and although I got all this tonight,I have other days where I got nothing.
Once I got the first one I was on a roll. Other nights I go home tired and with no work. I also work in Hertfordshire where the properties are £500k minimum
-
I had a way better night,
Went tp see The dark Knight rising ?
Cat woman in all that leather on a bike ;D

Two of us a day.But a long day !! I have to hire the equipment so we end up with about £250 each.The guy was expecting to pay £800 ish but I hope that giving him a cheaper price will get more work from his neighbours.

Next Door was charged £875 by another company and so they snapped my hand off. The house is worth £600k
£600k is a small 3 bed semi round these parts. And the average conservatory roof goes £30-50 for an hour / hour and a half's work.

take some picture when you do it and will believe you

I Think £600 for a roof clean is not that bad a price.
I think they think you mean a conservatory roof.
I took it as a house roof ?

Exactly so £500 split two ways over 6 hours works out at £40ish per hour each

Pity. If it was a conny roof, I was going to recommend using Magica One Go, on it.
I've got some free samples from the supplier ;).

I have done 6 roof cleans and will not do anymore. I charged more than £600 but you will find they take a lot longer and a lot more elbow Grease than you think. It's much easier and far less knack airing doing a full days work cleaning windows. Roof cleaning is a different job on its own. Unless I can get £500 a day profit doing a roof I'd rather not bother.
Well done though a cracking nights canvassing. Keep it up
