Title: CARPET CLEANING STATIC CARAVANS
Post by: waynebarry on August 03, 2009, 06:11:50 pm

Hi Folks
I have been asked to clean the upholstory & carpets in some static caravans for a customer, can you give me some advice on what I should charge her?

I did one several weeks ago for £110..... Took me a little over 2 hours but that was for the upholstery only... the carpet would have taken another 10 minutes max!

I own a couple of statics. Carpets are easy to do so depending where in the country you are £30 to £40 is about it.
Techically there are a lot of cushions but hardly any arms/sides/backs to do.
I'd say being organised you should get it all done in no more than 2.5 hours

Thing about the fixed beds in caravans is that when you're cleaning the isle between beds there seems to be a wooden slat? on the carpet every foot or so sticking out slightly from under the beds.

Now this "Slat" makes the isle width slightly narrower than my wand so every foot or so i bang into it.
Pain in the arse but worth it as the damnng bedrooms are so small anyway.

God I'm sad but at least Im happy.

will

Had a call a few days ago for exactly this, when he pushed for a price I said £100-£120.
He said "Price seems fair, when can you come and do it"
Booked in for next week but going to see it today.

Neil,

Do you rent the caravans out and if so, do you get a good return. Got a couple of little flats but a bit wary of buying any more.
Cheers,

Clive
