£5 for the fronts of a row 2 up 2 down cottages....8 in all and the easiest £40 going.

Would love it if all my work was so easy. And because it's less than the price of 20 Bennies I never get the "not today"

My minimum price is £6; that covers flats, small maisonettes, etc, where I can get through whole blocks at a time without having to move the van.

It doesn't sound much, but when you can do maybe 8  per hour it soon mounts up.

If I tried to charge these people a tenner they'd laugh at me. I still get told of their "old window cleaner" who used to charge them £2.50!!

Plymouth aint a wealthy place you know  :'(

My minimum is £10.  When I started I quoted like a pleb and as such still have some cheap houses.  These are all being put up over the next month and hopefully will lose some too.

By and large a tenner, but I've an estate of modern (70's) terraces which if the custy's not in I do the fronts only at £5/£6.

Oh, and a block of sheltered oap flats at £3.50 each which I view as one job of £45.50.

Any new work now is £15 for a semi, £20 for small detatched but I have lots of work that is priced well below that. Going to drop some and put others up.
