its a def divide like you all said north and south..... today a guy asked me to do front only (£6 house)... told him £3 (cos i need the work).... he said it was a lot for one side .. i said its very cheap actually, £3 to unload ladders, gear, climb ladders , wash all front windows , not to mention the fact i am saving him a horrid job in his eyes.... so he said what if i make you an offer of £2.....so i said perhaps you should save your two pound, and get your ladders out, with that i smiled politely and walked away..... two points here.1/. i would love to get £16 per house... but up here in west yorkshire its pretty hard going... although i may be corrected as i am very new.. and 2. i really will never do one half of the house as i feel they taking the p a bit and are so tight that they are even cutting there window cleaning costs to save pennies, once a month for christ sake !... and they are probably the ones who watch every stroke you make and keep you there forever talking rubbish and looking down on us.... my opinion.. i may be wrong and corrected here as i am so far, very inexperienced.
gary.
