Been asked to clean a 4 bed (3 bed conversion) fascia's only and not the soffit's and was wondering how to price it, the facia's are wooden not UPVC. Also what's a good chemical to use on them, i'd imagine good old soap and water but is there anything specific on the market I can use ? I was thinking of a one off price rather than an hourly rate as I'd imagined 2 hours and a price of £45 does sound about right ?

if its fascias only then  i would charge £30-£40 an hour so £80.if its wooden you might have a problem getting it to look clean!!personally i would pass up the job!

i usually only take on the upvc fascias and soffits cleaning and give an "all in" price.

eg.

WINDOWS CLEANED/FASCIAS/OUTSIDE GUTTERS  £95-00

you will dirty the windows anyway so you might as well clean them as well!obviously if its a regular custy you might charge them a bit less if their a good custy.

if its a one off clean and not a regular custy then the above price is roughly what i would charge

It is a regular custy but they are moving and want the facia's to look nice for new owners, I will clean the windows afterwards anyway and all as an all in one price, to be honest they live diagonally opposite so no travelling etc

charge per meter , i no lads who are charging £400 + on 3 bed semis and they allways have plenty of work .

this has been my experience with white wood.

But they will probably be covered in cobwebs and a bit green in places, so you will probably improve them somewhat. I can't comment on your price, but i find fascias quick to do with a pole and hosereel plugged into the garden tap. If the price doesn't include the underneath of the gutters, i think you could blitz that time wise. So i reckon your price and time could work out pretty good.

Please let me know the area that people are willing to pay these prices as I'm sure I could easily do 20 in a week earning me a tidy £8,000.

£400+ to clean the fascias on a 3 bed semi?i often get refusals when i say £80!! :

i think the only way to get top price for em is to send 1000s of leaflets out and wait for the phone to ring!!

my fascia cleaning is mainly just a add on service on top of my regular window cleaning work.usually existing customers.
