Congratulations to your son. Surrey ain't cheap!

Depends what you mean by a 3 bed semi.

Ex council red brick, no bays - £15-£18  A bit less if a few in a group together.
Rabbit hutch 1970's - £18-£20
1930's - with bay windows  - £20-25
Edwardian Villa - £30 - £40

Vary above for porch and conservatory and extension.

I’m Essex. So would charge £17 odd.

Guessing £20- £22 is about right in Surrey.

Daz does them for £3.85, cos his rent is 90p a month.  ;D

Nice,

Always wondered how saturated Braintree was with window cleaners. Seemed to always be loads of them in polarbrite!

Yeah that's why I don't bother with Braintree, it's quite overcrowded.  I only do commercial work there.

Morden is next to the tube to London so it's very expensive to live there but is surrounded by the largest pre war housing estate in Europe I get calls all the time but the going price always seems to be £8 to £10  so it's a miss for me
if your interested Surrey has houses ranging from a 1 bed flat 300 k to 30 million  for something a bit grander but only further out of town

Outside of Kensington Surrey’s probably one of the most expensive places to live or at least top few,Surrey-T Wells etc in the past have always been classed as the stock broker belt.
