hi guys,

window round for sale in blackburn and darwen. 2 main areas. both within 2 miles of each other. each area compact, when i say compact i mean compact, house after house after house after house. 70% is already waterfed but i have been doing it last 2 cleans trad so upto you. the other 30% is trad only. the houses on 70% work are newish houses on a newish housing estate between 4 and 8 years old. the other 30% is 1970's detached / semis with dormers, you know the kind. takes approx 826 per 4 weeks. about a 1/3rd is fortnightly rest is 4 weekly. i haven't had the work long but some work near my big round has come up for sale. i want 8 monthly cleans and i am willing to split if necessary. call me on 07918 698 795

the rules are simple, if you want to work it, you work with me for free if you decide against, if you want it i will knock off £50 per man per day, off the price of the work.

cheers

east lancashire hell get that price no problem,its the only way into the job,you will never canvass enough work around here
Sorry but I think thats rubbish, Thats like saying that every one in east lancs who wants a window cleaner will already have one. What about new estates? Canvass anywhere and you'll pick up work. it might take a while but I am sure you could build a round from scratch, same as any other area in the uk.

If east lancs is such a profitable place to sell rounds then why are you advertising nationally. I have always asked other cleaners or just put an ad in the free ads. £800 worth of work in my area like your describing would only go for about £2500. Let us know how you go on.

always thought we sell ourselves down the river when valuing our rounds they should all be worth x6/to 8  as a minimum ;)

good luck to windercleanertrad..he knows his area and we don,t

im quite happy doing it cheers, :D

it just baffles me how someone could ask so much for their rounds, i mean fairplay if you get it like! but dear me. i certainly would NOT buy a round. when i started out 5 years ago, i needed a round but no way would i of bought one. i wouldnt even consider giving 1x, never twice lol. i just worked dam hard to get there i am now and thats just what people need to do

buying a round to me is very dodgy, some people dont like change and this could be a problem when they see a new window cleaner, could take a disliking to you and then cancel...you lots outta pocket then...

my advice, go out and work hard, look after what youve got and the rest will come.

good luck on selling it mate, just my two pence worth, we're all entitled to it ;)

see to me more important than anything is the hourly rate and i would want to see that.

I mean say it brings in 800 a month it earns 15 a hour i would laugh in is face but if it brings in 30- 40 a hour than i would say it was proberly worth it.

Hourly rate is not a good indicater IMHO !  Price per house is what I look for !

I don't think there is a better indicator than hourly rate. Everything hinges around that. To say it is not a good indicator seems strange to me.
