Title: 'Builder' type clean . .. but not quite
Post by: shelton on May 29, 2007, 04:01:40 pm

I'll explain a bit better here, hopefully. ...

An office we've been doing a twice weekly clean in for a couple of years have recently had some remedial structural work done on their top floor.  They've asked us to clear up after the builders . . basically a load of dust all over the desks & fittings, inside of windows was 'orrible, carpets a bit manky, etc. . .

The office area affected isn't massive and it took 6 man hours to get back to normal.  We've agreed to itemise on our regular monthly bill, but I'm not sure on whether to charge our standard rate + a certain %, whether there is a more scientific/accepted method or whether it's a straight-forward "this much" type scenario?

Any advice appreciated . .. just don't want to undersell the company/service.

Cheers.

I would price this as a 'one off' builders clean, and itemise it as such.

£120/150 should be about right.

I charge my usual £11.50per hour for contract work and then double it for out of contract works.  ;D

Cheers guys.. .  I was planning on £150 for it, so it's good to see that I'm on the right lines.

Thanks again.
