I look at it like this, suite's are hard work and take loads of time compared to carpets, so if i'm going to do it, i want to be paid well for it, some i win, some i lose

agree suites are work,so what do you charge for a 12x12 or stairs landing if they want it as a extra and your already there.thanks.

i cleaned a suite today the faux suede one i posted about earlier in the week, i charged £80, it did not have any loose cushions and it took me 2 hrs it was quite dirty in the usual place that collect the dirt and the custy phoned me this evening to say it was totally dry ( i left a drier with her) and she was over the moon with the result. i have in the past tried higher prices but not got the jobs so being quiet i priced to get the job and did , i i am happy with £40 ph

Creighton Thats a good way to look at things.If a person moving out of a rental has to have the suite cleaned too i say as long as its not too bad i will clean it with a hand shampoo method(prochem) for an extra £60 or £80 depending on size and can get a good(and no call back) result in about 1hr so i get the carpet clean and for another hours work i nail another handful of dosh and thats getting quite a bit extra work.If its private work then adopt a different tact but even then some can get a great result without a machine with microsplit and towels or the shampoo method again(yes i have a truckmount and a cfr spotter with cfr(proper one) hand tool) but price really can influence what method is easiest to sell............Alan

by the time you drive to a house clean the suite then drive away i ffind a suite will take up most of the morning especially if you clean the living room while you are there.

 plus i might have spent 45mins doing a in-house quote before i do the actual clean,  so I need to be hitting the £200 mark to make it worth while as its taken 4hours of my time ... which is only £50hr

I always offer to clean the lounge at a reduced rate when doing the suite,
The time i save on putting tarpaulins down nearlly covers the time to clean the carpet.
