Can't understand the logic?

Well the logic is that some half wits think that £50 an hour should be the going rate. The bigger companies who employ can send a guy out and pay him £7 an hour, charge the customer say £15 an hour and still turnover a profit from the comfort of their swing chair.

The laugh is that the guys spouting off their fabulous hourly rates of £50, £60 an hour and above are sat at home most of the time saving for their new van that they haven't got and ripping out their hot water systems because they can't afford the £10 a week gas. "I had a few £50 houses to do this morning" - brilliant!

That's why this forum is such a laugh I love it.  ;D



Those guys earning £7 an hour will most likely do a crap job - you get what you pay for .

Im not sure why your attacking dazmond - he comes across to me as one of the honest ones on here rather than a bull poope millionaire.


if his average day is £200 and he is doing 5 hour days that is indeed £40 an hour turnover .

I believe you Daz.  I have one job where I earn about £100 an hour if I get my skates on - but it's only 18 hours spread across the year.  I have other jobs at around £25 that I can do in 20 minutes.  Is this typical?  No!  Could it be typical if I got off my bum and canvassed more?  Yes!  I never did a £400 either.  Funnily enough my best was £399 :) .  It was a long day and such hard graft that I vowed never to do that again.  I also have work where it's nearer £25 an hour.  My yearly turnover doesn't reflect those rates as I like to have a bit of time off and do shorter days quite a lot.

I wonder if lads who post what their top day is would post how many litres they used to get it (WFP obviously)
And how many glass hours it took.

It's just the internet. Try not to worry.

Do you need an hour glass for that?

That's how they can afford to charge the crazy low prices that they do.

At UK Commercial Cleaning Solutions, we have the capacity to clean windows in any premises of any height, using a range of high level access methods including our top of the range system called the Wash and Reach, this system sends purified water up a large pole cleaning the windows leaving them extremely clean. Of course we can also offer a traditional window cleaning services using ladders, mop and squeegee, but only to the height of 2 storeys by law.We also pay  our subcontractors a crap hourly rate so you will get a crap job but we are so cheap you wont complain. ;)

Big difference between turn over and profit many on here think there the same

Dave you are spot on,

If I took home 40 to 60per hour i think I would be doing better than a 500 quid van, a flat And a ford probe

To be fair you can't relate how much money someone has to the things they own.

I know a lot of people that have much more money than I do, but also live in a not so nice area and drive cars worth a few hundred quid.

Money doesn't have to be spent just in houses and vehicles.
