ive been to quote a hotel today with 600 metres of gutter rammed to the top with debris

there only typical normal house types gutters with few awkward one which may need cherry picker for

what price would you go in at for 600 metres excluding the price of cherry picker

[deeege]

£13 less vat for the lot. The same as your groupon deals.

(Joking of course, just getting it in there before someone else does)

done a few already one had all pointing knocked out down valleys off the roof tiles only took 30 minutes , problem ive found this week dirts all like sand not mushy and wet so taken bit longer ive took gutter out on two of them and just emptied into a bucket

[PAUL ERITH]

If i had a tyre puncture on my van i personally would pull over and change the tyre.

Same as if i had staffing issues i would fix the staffing problems before quoting for 600 meters of gutter clean and clear.

Just saying 

Good luck richy

Are you going to offer to do them for less than £13. 

[Dave Willis]

Richy, how long have you been in this trade? You have a massive round, loads of staff and yet can't ever make your own decisions. Surely you must know how to quote by now?

One broke van too

just gauging whether id be going in to cheap

ive got a rough idea what id charge

ive done a few bigguns not 600 metres tho so wondering if price comes down a fair bit when quoting this size

[deeege]

In all honesty it would be impossible to even give a ballpark figure from your description of the job. No mention at all of access issues, height, time restrictions, payment terms etc etc.  All would need to be factored in for anybody to give an accurate price.

[richywilts]

i know that but not giving to much away regards to the job as sum sneaky sods on here just wondering in general what going rate when that sort of meterage none of it is too difficult apart from areas which require cherry picker which i mentioned

Sounds like you will need a small skip for the debri,but without seeing it i would say around £850

good point didnt think of that to be honest

[deeege]

Sounds like you will need a small skip for the debri,but without seeing it i would say around £850

So lets say £80 for the skip and £200 for the cherry picker that he said he will probably need. So far we are down to £570 for 600m of gutter clearing. Less than £1 per metre. Sound about right?

Why would the 'price come DOWN a fair bit' because the job is BIG???
If its a job worth £30p/h, if its one hour, it's £30. If its 50 hours, it surely got to be £1500? 

[richywilts]

goes bk to my days fitting upvc guttering and fascia suppose steve more metreage you would get less per metre

and when buying in bulk

hear what your saying best working out estimated hours and charging per hour
