I honeslty dont know how some of you guys price/charge so much for this.

Sometimes the house will be £10 - £15, to charge more than £15 for the roof would sound ridiculous to the customer.

So thats £10 for the house, then £60 for the roof.

sensai please dont forget this is not a monthly request more like yearly
so it has no bearing on the regular cleaning of house windows . i am talking about it when its green and ends up taking 4 times longer than the house and half your water. But there in lies the problem most think like you . thats expensive ,but not compared to time and water it is so difficult to judge.

if its a small glass roof that i clean regular(say every 8 weeks)then £15.if its a minging polycarbon roof once a year jobbie then £50 min.

remember that these jobs are taking you away from your regular window cleaning work and are hard work so a premium should be charged.

price higher/work harder!

Much the same as what I charge Lee but probably, price is dependant on where you live.

Wizclean Save your water for the final rinse. Use custys outside tap and hose to get the worst off ;)
