I take it you are referring to the mean price, i.e., all of your job prices added together then divided by the number of jobs. Mine is £19.50.

£12.96 it was less than £10 12 months ago.

Price increase next year.

I'm stuck on some jobs tho. They are £5 and £6 each and I can do 8 or 9 of them an hour. I can't charge more than £5 for some of them. 1 door 2 windows.

Figures look encouraging so far lads!

I was genuinely expecting the vast majority to be in the region of £12.00.

All you guys charging under a tenner (on average) seriously need to put your prices up!!

In fact all of us do on a regular basis.

Even if you lose some fellas, better to do less work for same money!!

It would be a more accurate reflection if any big commercial jobs were not included in the equation. For example 200 x £10 (average) houses plus 3 £350 monthly commercial/ industrial jobs = £3050 per month Your average job price goes up to £15 when really your true average price is £10 plus a few nice jobs a month.

Title: Re: What's your Average job price?
Post by: Ian101 on December 04, 2013, 08:35:27 am
with george go to reports

print off forecasted income for next 12 months

remove any large commercial jobs from totals as £280 for 1 job done 4 times a year will distort figures

divide whats left from number of jobs to be done

that gives me my average job income

Ive done it this way on a spreadsheet since i started in 2010 and my average has increased by £2.95 per job.
Title: Re: What's your Average job price?
Post by: andyM on December 04, 2013, 08:40:55 am
On George if you go to REPORTS then into ROUND VALUATION it will give you the total number of jobs and the value.
Then just divide the round valuation by the number of jobs to get the average price.

yup this works but only problem with round valuation it counts bimonthly trimonthly etc as a static fixed figure ... try it both ways and you will see a difference

Doing it that way gives me £15.87 instead of £15.63.
Not much difference imo.

the national average is.........
Title: Re: What's your Average job price?
Post by: telfordwindowclnr on December 08, 2013, 05:35:00 pm
Average window cleaning price comes out at £106.00.

Average residential window cleaning is £27.08.

I'm in the Midlands if that makes a difference.
Title: Re: What's your Average job price?
Post by: TLC on June 16, 2016, 10:32:09 am
So I reckon the national average (domestic) price is about £16.00 based on the info available.  :)

If you are charging less than this as an average I would seriously consider raising your prices, unless you have a
well established very compact round (hard to come by these days) which gives you the hourly rate you need. (which is what its all about)  ;)

With the national living wage coming into effect and rising substantially over the next few years, is it worth working
for less than £25 per hour as a sole trader anymore?    ::)roll

I know it's an old thread that's been dragged up but for me average house price isn't important, hourly rate is the one that matters to me.  I have areas where average house price is £20 and I will hit £35 an hour, on the other hand I have areas where the average house price is £8 but I can do £45 an hour on those quite easily.

What's important is that your happy with your own hourly rate, what somebody else is earning or bragging about is
neither here nor there.
If you feel your working too hard and too long for too little money then its time to make changes, if somebody else tells you this
ignore them.

Well said Sean .

I don't think it is important , I'm sure someone on here who does £10 front onlys has a much lower average house price but will be earning more than the guy who charges £20 a house

Mines between 12 n 15.
Used to be much less.  Not keen on putting prices up but any new work gets the new higher prices. But now the gap is too big and so bringing old prices up.

Since coming on this forum and last yr, started to come to my senses. It now feels like i was a charity for last 12/13 yrs (dont get me wrong, i work mon to fri 4wks a mnth and rounds are 4wkly) and now i have business head on. Where ny prices used to be 8/9 a house.  I now charge 12 n up wards. But ive smarten to appearance and enhanced ny already good reputation.
