Hi all,
If you divide the value of your round with the number of customers,
what is the average cost per house,
just curious ;D
Gary.

Mine is £10-£12 not 100% sur cos i cant be bothered at the mo to add every thing up. (got another mean hangover >:()
-
my domesic round is prob about £10 . but i have alot of small house (2bed) my people with larger houses would probably be higher.
you have also got to take in concideration for flats and things like that
-
Presumably this is for George users - since it is an easy calculation.
£16.05
Customers range from £2.50 to £180 per clean.
I thought it would be higher ???
It's quite easy whatever software you use really.
My average visit is £14.20.
It currently ranges from £5 up to £80.
-
Thanks...
yes its simple to work out with a calculator,
mine is £8.00
i thought it would be higher too....
jampot,... i mean the whole round , small payers , big payers ..an average of the whole round,
i only have 2 commercial.... but i didnt mean include them... sorry..

Sorry. I didn't read your post properly. Without the commercial work, the average drops to £13.31 . The range is from £5 to £58

Mine is just under £25 ;D
-

-
Average job £2 I'm lucky if I take £25 all day. Honest!
-
£10.49, George does make it easy!!

how serious are the prices quoted. The average price where I am is around £3 per clean and takes around 5 minutes with two people tems.

I remember posting an answer when the question was asked before but couldn't remember what my answer was though. It's a little bit better than it looks too as I think my previous answer included the commercial work.
I've increased some of my prices this year and quoted new work higher. The increase in the average is as much to do with discarding lower paid jobs as taking on work at better prices. My customer numbers are pretty static at around 208 though. I intend to have that closer to 300 by the year end.
-
mines about 11 pounds
-
My average is just over £10 aim to get it to £15 over the next year have just sold off a load of smaller jobs and will soon go out and canvass the large residential that i have had my beady eye on ;D

God there's some toilet on here. ::)

-
Squeaks why do you dismiss some of the prices so out of hand?
Dave.
-
honestly lads lol :D
-
You just carry on being Mr Cheap Squealer and I will carry on making good money as a quality window cleaner!! ;D
-
...and you're the biggest teller of whoppers on here Bushpig. ::)
Gullible too if you believe half of what's been quoted.
Cheap? Don't think so, I make plenty. ;)
Quality? You wish you had my talent. ;D
-
To Squealer
1/ I have no reason to come on here and lie. :o
2/ I believe that most people are being honest. ;)
3/ If you make so much money, then why do you think I am lying about my average price? ???
4/ What exactly are you talented at? ;D
5/ Unlike you I do not undercut other window cleaners!! >:(

10 quid
brett :)
-
£9.72..... used to be about £12 but took on a load of new terraced houses at £6.50.
-
not doing so bad then me ... for .."up north"
:D
still no where near my target though.
-
I have no doubt that some on here have some very impressive 'average' house prices....mine look very impressive at the moment but alas I only have 138 customers at present so when I have a full round this average will very much be watered down.
But the scorn that is shown to some people who take the time to answer question of fellow CIU members is very sad.
Squeaky you take every opportunity to throw cold water at many posts on here...but all you seem to do with the other breath is winge, wine, moan and complain like a eleven year girl about ...dont have enough money, work, tax money, customers....are you ever happy or do you just like to spread your depression to the world..
You very rarely seem to have anything constuctive to say....more the opposite to be fair....
My average house is 19.46 pounds....but then again I do not have a full round so in another year or so...who knows...but this is truth and if you don't agree...you deal with it. Lets face average house price is a vague quantifier but gives a broadview.
Dave.
It's simple really. If you don't like what he writes, don't read his posts.
-
yeah thats a thought is there a filter...I would certainly use it.
-
I have come to thing that this forum has started to degenerate into a place where members have to be in some sort of schoolboy click ....
Thus I cannot really see any further use of this forum for me.
So thanks to all that have helped me on the way.
Dave.

To Squealer
1/ I have no reason to come on here and lie. :o
Yes you do, trying to look important.
2/ I believe that most people are being honest. ;)
Most yes, that's why most are about £10, strangley others are £25. ::)
3/ If you make so much money, then why do you think I am lying about my average price? ???
Because it's 3 times the average.
4/ What exactly are you talented at? ;D
My job and getting the best results in quick time.
5/ Unlike you I do not undercut other window cleaners!! >:(
Get stuffed, I've never undercut anyone. >:(
Satisfied?
-
I didn't want to be the one to have to say this Squealer, but you are without doubt an idiot!! :o
Why do you think that I am lying just because my average price is above average? I have never set out to be average, and I have a lot of large houses on my round, several of which are priced at over £100, so I was actually quite suprised that my average price was not higher than £25!!
I am not going to waste any more of my time on this pointless debate with an idiot like you Squealer!! >:(
-
I think you are being a little bit rash dave, leaving the forum, after all the help you had starting out,.. and anyway we started together buddy, dont leave me. ;D
and you now have experience to help others on here as they did to you. ::)
a bit of ranting and raving between us window cleaners is only letting off steam
when we have a row at home we dont get a divorce...
come on dave lad.
Gary.
-
Yeah come one mate, not everyone's a c0ck.
-
Who`s thinking of leaving the forum?and Squeaky bring back Victor.
-
plyform.. above.... he,s not usually this touchy,... maybe he is jacking in.
-
I would say my average is 20 to 22 quid, Luke
I dont work for less than 8 pound, and that would only get you 2 windows if I had to setup my equipment for such a small job, our local minimum is 8 but will soon rise to 12 and our non local minimum is 25 due to the area being quite rural.
-
I have no Idea what my average price is.
To be honest it does not matter a jot. If you do 20 terrace houses front only at £5.00 a go. Then the next day you have a client at £120.00, it means their is no point at looking at your average house price.
Its far more pratical to look at your hourly earnings over the days you work to know your good work from your bad.
Nel :o
-
Add up how many jobs you`ve done say this month or what you would call your average month,add up how much money you`ve earn`t in that month and divide it by the amount of houses you`ve done.Hey Presto,there`s your average.
-
WHY?
Nel
-
because i asked the question on this topic out of curiousity. ::)
-
Who`s thinking of leaving the forum?and Squeaky bring back Victor.
No thanks, I had that one far too long.

That point hits it right on the head, sometimes I earn alot an hour sometimes it goes down, over the years you build on it, average woould need to be worked on the customers you have, time spent, price, duration etc etc etc. I got my average down and i was gutted lol but do very well for myself. keep posting your averages though as I would love to no more ;)
-
You could do ten £5 houses in an hour or one £30 house in an hour meaning your averages look completely different
Like was already said its the quality of price/house that counts
and as long as you are happy thats all that matters

No. There's no filter. You just scroll on past the relevant messages if you take a dislike to the way someone posts.

thats why i am asking for peoples averages.. would be nice if we was all on 30 pound per house , every house..... i didnt ask about the quality of work or the hourly rate... simply an average figure per house .. for the round.. simple lol.
-
Gazza, I know you have asked for an average per house. But the figure has no relevant value or merit in the practacalities of a w/c buisness. IE,
You could clean 20 houses earning you £100.00, £5.00 an house.
10 houses earning you £100.00, £10.00 an house.
5 houses earning you £100.00, £20.00 an house.
1 house earning you £100.00,
Now for me the highs on the lows of the example above would be, 1 house = less collecting then 20 houses, a big time saver at work and going out collecting.
The big advantage of the 20 houses is if you lose a customer its only £5.00 to lose. If you lose a £100.00 house its a lot of money to lose.
I can see practiclities in looking at how prices make up a domestic round. but I cannot see any practical value in an average price.
Hope that makes it clearer.

what is the average cost per house,
