This is for all the local Scottish window cleaners (Highland / Moray / Grampian).
What do you consider a normal rate for cleaning in the local area. I've seen other posts on here, but they are mainly for down south, which is obviously at a higher rate than us tight fisted Scots ;D
I'm thinking a start off point of £6.50 for 2-3 bed bungalow / £8-£9 for a upstairs/downstairs.
I know there is a fine line between matching your competitors and pricing yourself out the market.

* Sorry, i don't normally ask so many questions by the way!
On the same line of questioning, how do commercial rates (shop / office windows) differ from domestic; i have no experience of this aspect what so ever.

Dont bother with the 0.50p you will always run out of them when you need to give change
I tend to charge £1 per window with a minimum of £10 sometimes it can work out less than £1 per window if they have some small windows
Its just a general figure and can be adjusted as you see fit these prices work for here in Angus and also i have more than enough work so i can dictate the price more you might need to adjust it for your area depends how much competition their is in your area and how good a job you do
Whatever you do decide to charge make sure you dont undercharge to get the job as sometime in the future you will regret it
