Title: Pricing conservatories
Post by: Aquakleen Restoration Services on February 01, 2013, 12:47:21 pm
When you price for a conservatory (not the roof) would you charge by the glass or time it takes to do one? TIA John

by the size, and the time it takes (we dont just clean the glass, we clean the plastic too, I quess you do too, so never just price the glass

Once you do a few you will know what to price by the time it would take ... Simple. £5 to £10 added on to the price of the house is prob a rough average

When I first started out I used to stick a couple of quid on for a conny but realised .... eventually that they have a fair few windows in them however all close together so now work on 50p a panel or door so an average conny will have about 12 panels and 2 doors so charge is £7.

I price roof cleans at between £5 to £10 a panel (even the little panels on the corners) depending how minging they are and if theyre polycarbonite or glass ..... typical conny will have 5 panels per side with 2 little corner panels and prob 4 panels on the front so £80 but this includes the finnials at the top and will wash exterior of gutters and give windows a going over for that price.

£5 per panel on roof, i always end up charging £20 to £40 though depending on size of con, with the price as you go round the conservatory count the number of panes, half is the price, if customer thinks to much knock a bit off, a pound or two on a job wont make that much difference in the end.
