hard floor price help
« on: February 17, 2004, 03:14:40 am »
Just completed a job for a factory cleaning the first floor carpets. 2 days work, tonight just before i finished the boss asked me to "scrub" a very small area on hard floor.

So being an obligin chap and as my rotary was out anyway i did it for him no charge.

Then after he saw the resuilt preceded to take me on a tour of the factory pointing out all the loos etc etc and asking for a quote on scrubbiung the floors and applying a layer of polish.

This company ha snust been taken over and they are getting everything ship shape for the big cheese to come and vsit.

Anyway i want to know how much to charge them. Basically i was going to rotary scrub the floor and add one coat of Prochem Proshine.

How much a square foot whoops sorry metre should i charge.

Alko i used my low speed rotary tonight but i also have a 400rmp rotary couod i use this instead, i am thinking it would be quicker??

Thanks

Mark

PS I Got to hand the quote in tomorrow afternoon.

Hi Mark

I know a local contractor who prices at 95p per square metre but I guess it depends on a number of factors. It won't be particularly profitable it it's all 6m toilet areas and you have to scrub round the toilets though!? 5 ltrs of proshine will do about 250m per cost so the cost of that is insignificant.

The low speed machine will be much better than the higher speed.
