£28 monthly
with maybe £40 1st clean if was gonna take a while
-
having said that i have 3 houses like this all next to each other at £25 a pop and there going up next year so perhaps u not too far out at £35
-
£20-£25 depending if its right near other work.30 mins to clean or less(maintenance cleans).
£35 seems a bit expensive if your outside of london and the south.
-
depends on the access as well ,but its best not to underprice.
hope you get it.

Depends - one off? On the spot or come back? Or with a view to clean monthly? Two monthly? Near others or on it's own. How dirty, how desperate?
22 windows plus conny ... upvc ... within 200 yards of another custy.
One off on the spot - dirty? £40 Call back later £50
Not too dirty £35 - £40
1st clean and then monthly £35 followed by £25
1st clean and Two monthly £35 followed by £30
Access/parking issues may increase/decrease above prices.
They're possibly "desperate" because their old cleaner got fed up of doing them at a tenner or fifteen quid and dumped them!
Oh! And if they are in Lancashire cut those prices in half ... ;D
-
£60 if you're new and post on Cleanitup.
-
£35 seems a bit steep to me but I suppose it depends on location. I am in north east Scotland and have recently taken on a similar house for which I am charging £25.

Im in pembrokeshire, access is ok sum of the higher ones maybe abit awkward, its dirty but not too bad think it would be a 4weekly
Should of said 35 first one then 30 :-\

Must all be millionaires on here charging them prices
£35 for a house that takes 20/30 mins
2x in a hour
£70 per hour
I'm surprises that your not all driving around in brand new vans etc.
Amazing
But well done for getting them prices/customers
-
Even at a £1 a window would make it £22 , and 20 min Job .
In wakey be £15 , and that would be good .
-
Ditto to kempy.
I'more like £15 for a house like that.
£30 a. Hour and I'm more than happy!
-
there is a conny on it as well guys.

Not a small conny either

I'd quote 22 windows at say £1 a window so that's £22
And if it takes 30 mins and you AIM for £30 per hour that's £15
Therefore I between at say £18 and it would be a good job
....??
That's how I price £1 a window is well plenty , and then on time .
Therefore I'd tell them it would be £22 max , say you will clean it and then adjust price if required , I've done this loads of times .
-
Don't understand this "price too high price too low" stuff, everyone cleans in different circumstances, cost of business to run etc surely you get what you can, you can always re-negotiate the estimate, then there's compactness of work, is the work scattered? I got criticized on a poor forum of doing £6 jobs, they didn't even ask what the work involved was? 5 an hour I do of these that's £30 an hour for work 1.5 miles away from my home as a self employed one man op, I still have kept the work cause I'm not ripping them off.

25 all day long

So you teleport between jobs then?
-
£10

I too struggle with this too high/ripping people off line of thought.
Surely you charge the going rate for the area?
It's not for us to second guess what the customer thinks, they may think what you feel is high, is reasonable.
To the O/P I would have charged £1 a hole and anything between £5 and £15 for the connie and then aim to do it as thoroughly as quickly as possible.
Hourly rates are for poor people ;D

-

I have still got some £5 £6 houses on my round, the windows are tiny. Another house has slightly more and its £7.
I turn up park van at one end, and walk from house to house. I can do all of them within the hour and its a straight run in a line. £52.50
Yet when i say i got some houses at £5 people are like OMFG. I swear some cleaners want to just run me over when i say £5.
But they dont know the full SP ;)
Yes i could put up the houses, but for an hours work £50 why?
-
Some big hitters on here £50 per hour
I'm surprised everyone on here aren't driving around in brand new vans and best equipment .
Nice one that

Some people would happily pay that. Others that quibble most probably quibble over everything in life or they've had someone really cheap before and think that's what they should pay.
Quoted a job today, big 5 bedroom house in a nice leafy private road all windows plus conservatory roof (plastic roof instead of glass) and exterior conservatory gutters. I quoted £45 once a month. She said its a lot more than her previous window cleaner, who incidentally is now unreliable and hasn't been for a while, then she says won't leave gate unlocked. I tactfully say that's why he doesn't come any more because he's realised he actually needs to make a living and not waste time on the tight people.
Keep quoting high because the ones that say yes will stick with you. Eventually you'll have a business with great customers who understand how a business works.

once you pass the 20 quid barrier you get into cancelling territory (if its a "normal house" )
