just wondering how much would u charge for doing this house.
that's the front .in the back is nearly the same.,just instead of that big window is a normal one and instead of the door is a patio door. I've changed from trad to wfp reccently and i tend to charge 1 or 2 pounds less.i've estimated that 15 quid .is it too cheap|?thanks
-
Obviously it depends where you are in the country.... but i'd say £15 is about right
-
it's in east anglia .the lady allready had a window cleaner.she contact me to give her price as she thought that her window cleaner might charge too much.when she heard the my price she asked me if i would do every fortnight.i said that doesn't need doing more then 4 weeks.cheers
-
offer her the insides ;)
-
£15? - Good price, but not extortionate.
-
cannot believe the money ye get for something like that man. if back is similar up here reckon be about 6 quid
-
£6.00!!!!
Do you get anything much above the average wage after costs?
-
if you can get £15 for that go for it. that what i would charge
-
i fell sorry for the other window cleaner as i didn't try to undercut him i just priced what's fair for me.she said will cancel him,but that's life i suppose.did happened to me ,so i carry on
-
£15 sounds about right but i,d take her up on the 2 weekly clean ;D
-
i don't think that 2 weekly cleans apply to much this days for residential so i'll stick with 4,6,8 and 12 weeks
-
Fortnightly is ridiculous. I recommend 6 weekly.
-
ive got over 300 houses on my books that i do fortnightly you dont no wot your talking about :P
-
You cant do a very good job then if you have to keep going back :P
Windows DO NOT get dirty enough to require a re-clean after 14 days. End off. (Unless of course your from Coronation Street country where they speak with a funny accent, breed whippets/pigeons or both and live down't pit ;D )
-
no its must be you who,s work shy end of!!! ;D

Afraid of work? You dont know me.
Quite the opposite, which is why I CANT be running around over the same ground twice in 2 weeks, like some who arent busy enough ;)
-

i think that's about right ,not even 4 weeks as for some customers seems to be too quick.in some months you even clean them twice for example you do them on 1st of the month and next clean is due on 30th or 31 st.i doesn't feel right
-
wot eva i bet your still up a ladder not paying tax uninsured driving a clapped out estate car giving us real window cleaners a bad name go away! :P
-
Behave.
-
truth hurts does it!!!!
-
Behave
-
i agree with john windows do need cleaning every two weeks i have a few rounds like that
-
surely its up to the customer how often they want there windows cleaned the longest mine go is 4 weekly dont have none of this 6,8 weekly business and if you had as much work as me you would be paying tax not supplementing your dole!
-
its down to money i have big jobs were the money is big so i do them monthly and your bread and butter were i do them every two weeks
-
like to see you say it to my face :-*
Youre showing your lack of professionalism with comments like John
-

-

-

Are you up north by any chance?
We clean 4 8 and 12 weekly but we are down south it is the norm here, I wish I could clean every 2 weeks are job would be even easier some afer 8 weeks look quite clean, then we do a good job ;D
-
With WFP i go back to jobs after 6-8 weeks sometimes and think have they got someone else to clean them in between me coming because they`ve stayed so clean every 2 weeks for me would only be a shop,as for charging £15 for that job in the picture if it had the same round the back £15 is a joke it must be cut throat where you come from to be charging £15 for anything like that.Lets all start looking at jobs like we`ve got to ladder them guy`s your driving prices back down into the 80`s.

you lot in the south have all the nice weather us up north got to be tough as we get all the bad weather
-
yes based in leeds our 2 weekly cleans are like maintinance cleans or on main roads dont take long to do, they are bread and butter work. I have large residential homes and commercial jobs that i do 6 weekly. i leave it to the customer to decide how often they wish windows to be cleaned, alot say 2 weekly and others 4, but if they are happy im happy ;D ;D

That is what matters at the end of the day, if your profit is fine and customers are happy all is good and people should not slate it. I just wish all my customers where 2 weekly then again that would be even more of a head ache than it is now :-\ would still do it though ;)
