Hi ya
Just wondering if anyone has a min charge for thier business if they do what is it set at, I remember reading somewhere that one windy had a min charge of £10 so what ever the jon was nothing went below this.

Any thoughts?

[StockClean]

Yes we do.

£16 for monthlys

£18 for Bi-monthly

£20 for Quarterlies

[GB Window Cleaning]

on houses £10 4 wkly and the smallest job you can imagine £5 even for one window! not worth turning up otherwise i rekon

BUT i might change my mind IF i was oiffered say... loads of shops bang next to each other with one door in each! something like that 

but then again i think a fiver is needed really even then 

[EandM]

Nothing under a Tenner

So you're working next to some flats or a small house and someone comes out and asks you if you could just clean the two small upstairs windows as they can reach downstairs; you still charge them a fiver for two small windows???

We have a street with a row of tiny houses, one window upstairs and one down, plus a door. We don't charge a fiver for doing them WFP; we're on each house two minutes tops.

My min is 12 quid for a house, the custys what want it done for nothing I don't want to deal with as they are the ones who mess about the most, so I've gone in at 12 min, I aim for the people who want a quality service I thought, I. Know some companys are at 8 quid I think we all work hard and the days of us window cleaners being dirt cheap are gone with the advances we have now with wfp, purifing water does cost us money. Regards.

[Crystal-clear]

dont you guys do fronts too?

[Dean payne]

As in fronts only?

[gary999]

£6 for a front minimum

Pretty much my take on it.  Minimum of £12 - though I do have older work kicking around for less due to not increasing the prices enough down the years.

[Dean payne]

Yeah I have a few at 10 quid and 11 but will bump em up to 12 in jan, if any don't like it I will replace them. I think its good to have a min price, I do have a price list of all the windows, and if price from list is say 9 quid if its a small place it goes onto my min price standard I have in place.

[stuart mc]

three quid

[Bushboy]

Got 150 front only houses £5 each 10 mins each house , all within same streets worth doing .
 

[Dean payne]

That's a lot of houses for 5 quid tho I'd rather do 60 at 12 quid for the same money approx and use less fuel, but I'm just starting out, if they say just fronts I would say ok fine but its min charge of 12 so you might as well have the backs done as well.

but you wouldn't get 60 at £12 if others are doing them at a £5

[SB Cleaning]

Fiver for a few fronts is my lowest, all next door  to each other quick and easy.

[bobby p]

fiver to put my ladders up  is my rule
