Its amazing the diference in prices folk give for the same job.

The way i see conny cleans is price fair but dont undersell yourself. The people who own that conny must have spent tens of thousands having it built. If they are then not prepared to pay for its upkeep then more fool them.

They would not spend 30k on a new car and let it fall apart and not spend money on it, so why would something like this be different? when I price a conny I usually try to get that analagy into the conversation to make them think about the value of the building otherwise to them its just "part of the house"

I would charge a full days labour for that job to ensure they got a quality job done. (no I am not going to tell you what "a full days Labour" charge is )  ;)

i would say £250.00  but  like dazmond says do the lot , if they are tight wads you need to make them feel like they are getting value you for money whatever you charge , so if and when you do the job if you think you might get it off in 4 hours just string it out a bit and have a extra long break so time spent at property is a bit longer

good point neil about getting them to think about value of conny will try and remember that one myself

The people have just moved onto the house, they rent it, and they quibbled over the price of the windows on the house, the wanted £3 knocked off.

Lee,

I wouldn't sweat it too much mate, by the sounds of things they are unlikely to be willing to pay anywhere near what you would want for doing the job!
