Anyone clean pubs ? How often and how much would be reasonable?
-
How long is a piece of string?
depends on how big the pub is, what type of windows, when you can clean them and when you can't, access to the windows. The list goes on.
You have to take all this into account when pricing any job. Pubs are no different.
Hope this helps.

We do a couple of pubs and as matt says above

Mate, not being funny, but if you had such a big wc business, and now a construction co, surely you can answer that question!??

never cleaned a pub before - Im giving a quote next week but not sure if i can be bothered to travel the other end of town for it so just seeing whats the highest price i can quote for it - Not really bothered if they say im too dear but if i get a good rate for it maybe its worth the trouble
-
also some samll shops with general sized window inside and out on a weekly basis including the door
How much do you charge for shops in general inside and out
-
I think we need a yawn smiley added

The trouble with pub work is that it has to have someone there for you to clean inside. That means you have to fit your work in with the job and not the other way around.
I would therefore price this up at the top end of your price range. Many pubs have non standard windows as well, so if the window is 1 1/2times the size of your standard domestic, charge 1 1/2 times the value.
There aren't any kudos to cleaning a pub. Only hassle and commitment. So price well. Or you might regret getting the job a couple of cleans down the line.

The pubs i do are:-
Wetherspoons done weekly
Mitchell and Bultler- (which are Toby carevery and the harvesters) done every other week
TCG pubs some are weekly and some every other week
Orchid pubs done monthly
Leased pubs - depends on manager
Hope that helps

Find out what the last guy charged and halve it. Try to get his phone number and phone him up to ask what he was charging.

Pubs are as reliable as the weather,they want you 1 day they don`t the next most have drastically reduced there window cleaning to a point they look awful.

You`ve been lucky then,not half as much trouble these days due to no smoking.
