i had a few £50 houses booked in first thing this morning(all are texted the night before)6 weekly jobs a little bit out of my way.

drove up there this morning and it was absolutely hammering it down!so i had a brew in the van and had a chat with girlfriend on the phone.an hour later its still heavy rain(10-30am) so i decided to just crack on.

now i work in the rain but this morning it was BAD!!anyway all customers were in and paid me.NOT ONE CUSTOMER EVEN MENTIONED THE RAIN!!no tips but got a xmas card off one of em.

just goes to show most customers are not bothered about the weather!


happy days!!

I have 2 £60.00 houses booked in for Monday... if there is any chance of rain I wont be doing them! far to much of a risk to loose even if I explain its fine in the rain etc.

I only work in very light rain... im a wuss and cant handle loosing jobs!

[Dave Willis]

Only about 20 before lunch time.  

[dazmond]

smurf you might clean loads of council houses for £6 or £7 (i clean a few of them by the way!)but i have lots of posh houses as well.a good mix.i mainly work in very affluent areas!

So if you started as you say at 10.30 and they are big houses at £50 per pop and I take it you have to setup at and pack away at each job then move onto the next one how long does it take you to do each one then?

they are nearly all next door to each other on a posh estate(cul de sac).5 of em.about an hour each.

large 6-7 bedroom houses with large conservatories.

Out of interest would you post a pic of an example house that you would charge 50 for? Would just like to see the difference in the prices I charge

bigger or smaller than these ?

[dazmond]

about the same size ian,maybe a bit bigger.all have double garages(i wash down the garage doors as well).

i just wish i had a months work of the buggers!!

a few turned me down when canvassing some of the other houses.i think they thought i was expensive!!i always add an extra tenner on the price i think i would normally charge(rich tax and driving up there!)

[Dave Willis]

Dazmond!!! Your nose is getting longer! 

[Ian101]

think i may need to put mine up a little  

[Jonny 87]

I clean a lot of house like that, got an estate full of them, 20 houses or so.

I feel embarrassed at how little I charge compared to that. Lol.

[dazmond]

ideally i would like to get more of these types of houses.i could quite comfortably clean 6 houses a day at £50 a pop.id be happy with £300 a day but we all know its not that simple in window cleaning!

im trying though!!

[rah]

Daz,

I believe those whom live in more expensive houses understand that your a business, years back, when working Council estates, would let me clean if the sky had a black cloud lol, needless to say, that was in the beginning

[roundbuilder]

You charge more than me dazmond and im in london!..
What happened to all your £4 houses you said that were great??

[dazmond]

i think im at risk of being undercut on this type of work but its 10 miles from home so you have to factor in travel time as well.i do a good job each and every time though.

[paul ette]

I'd charge 25 tops for that, 30 to 40 min work, maybe Extra 10 er if it had a decent size Donny on back

[paul ette]

Conny sorry
