i have some work not very well priced but bread and butter work every two weeks so good cash flow , well someone has come along and started do them monthly , could not beat me on price but every month saves custy one clean , where is the loylty only a coulple have gone for it but it puts you on a downer when you look after the work ,

[magic moments]

Always thought fortnightly way to soon,always going to lose there.

[landy2]

been doing this way for at least 17 years its when people offer monthly , you go back a few years nobody realy was monthly may be odd one but latley window cleaners offering monthly as a starter and even every six or eight weeks that is just madness

Everything changes. You will need to adapt or lose out. Windows cant need cleaning every two weeks.

I have approx 25 percent customers on fortnightly  they love it.

Then 50 percent on 3 weekly and rest on 4 weekly.

6 windows 2 doors why?

6 windows 2 doors why?

Because from the midlands, south that would be £8 to £10 every 4 weeks or £10 to £12 every 8 weeks
£3.50 although every two weeks just seems so cheap

Unless there is wind, the glass will stay clean almost indefinitely, bird poo exempted. No reeky chimney's to deposit soot, most industrial estate's well out of town, coal mine's a thing of the past. Main road's and town centre work will maybe be in need of a fortnightly wash but normal residential estates...just no need for it so often these day's.

I cleaned a street of house's after 9 week's today and there was hardly a mark on the glass after all that time. How some get away with fortnightly is beyond me to be honest.

I had loads changed them all bar 1 to 4 weekly, the one I kept doing is on a street I have to drive down to get home so he gets done 26 times a year rain or snow and he never complains, the inside have never been cleaned in five years and are brown with nicotine, it takes about 3 minutes and I get £4

If you went 4 weekly and put the price up to £4.50 or £5.00 the customer would save money and providing you got extra customers to compensate you would also earn more money. A win win don't you see.
Two weekly cleans, unless you live by an  active coal mine are not necessary imo and sooner or later when someone offers the customer a more cost effective option., they will change. I also find that some people ask me to quote once or twice a year for in and out, just like the Americans. But we don't follow them. But you must do what you think is best.
