ive targeted a certain few that are under priced . mainly from when i first started . put price up or get rid.

Good feeling when you get that option innit.

well you got to remember i was a newbie when priced and im very loyal to my customers and the price but it became a grudge clean . 2 and half years on and inspired by desmond i put the price up . 2 customers on the same street , next dooor neighbours infact same price nearly identical . did the 2 for 30 quid .. mad i know but i was naive . neither one is happy i put the price up to 20 each .. even then i knew it was underpriced but you can only increase so much right ..

i totally understand you putting the price up, thats what i was talking about if your round is not full £20 an hour is still ok. A gutter for you to do it on the cheap and then lose it thats an insult and for £2.50 annoyed for you.

Never bin, just increase to worthwhile price. ;)
Was the fella who took this job the same one who took the other few bud?

no .  but you know him. cant mention any names but he's probably the cheapest window cleaner in our area . seriously darren . it was a hard job to do . im no slouch and it made me sweat.  i am a bit annoyed tbh because i did advise him that that even at 20 i was too cheap but he still undercut me i see no sense in it . he cant complete the work he has , ive known him for a while now and he  never hits his monthly targets.
