Title: Time difference between 4 & 8 weekly cleans
Post by: Blue Frog Systems on September 30, 2009, 07:49:58 am
From another thread....

Say two houses exactly the same. One has 4 weekly cleans and the other 8 weekly.

Is there a difference in cleaning time in your experience ?

Not in any significant way.  Ok the birds have had twice as much opportunity to mess on the windows and in the summer its had more chance to bake hard but even after 2 months most windows barely need a wipe over.

i find it depends where the properties are situated.

normal housing estates no difference and no price difference.

but properties on busy main roads there is a def difference
and i charge 50% more for 8 weekly than 4 weekly

usually the ones that have trees around them, will be covered in spiders webs/nests etc.. after 4 weeks and its even worse after 8..

thats why i charge 50% more regardless for clarity of pricing.

Anything near insect food sources such as close tree's, water and then busy vech routes, open farm land...these I find really put extra 'dirt' on the glass.

Cheers.

Trad 8 weeks would take longer, with WFP prob not much longer.
