I think it would take 2 - 3  hours and would charge £100

Some wcs have said that because your using the pole don`t drop the prices,looking at some of the prices that people are saying they would do it for they are going in way to cheap.£100 some 4-5 bed run of the mill houses that i do inside and out i charge that.

It seems that some prices that wcs have quoted they charge for jobs in the past have been porky pies if they will do that kind of job for 100 quid.

What i`m saying Jon is that if you would charge £100 for that job you need to seriously look at your pricing structure.

£30 per hour seems fine to me, I would like to earn that every hour . We all have jobs that are priced lower than we would like.  I have not seen how much you would chare for it only what you charge for another property

 i think it would take me along time, so im sticking to 250, but considering it, i would also think around 180, i could see it take 4-5 hours for one bloke

I do a place similar a bit bigger and it takes 2 of us 2 hours to wfp the outside, so I'd say 3 hours for 1 man.  Price I reckon 185, I said 250 though as you said that there are windows in the roof and these would come at a premium.

Nice house!

I reckon that we would get that done in about 1hr 40minutes by 2 people. So I would charge about £160. (not including any roof windows)
