It's just made for wfp! Half an hour for the front?  15ish mins for the back? Top whack 1 hrs work in total....with me it'd be £30 if regular.

Dunno about the roof.

Then i suspect you wouldn't get the job! It's not a question of "all those windows" it's a question of how long it'd take you multiplied by what you charge per hour. For corporate work I reckon you'd struggle to get more than £30ph.

Im with RS!!!
You couldn't do a proper job spending only 30minutes on the front.

I have nearly 3 years experience with wfp, I consider myself to work at a good pace and always do an excellent thorough job. for the front of that building I would charge approximately £150. There are alot of sills which will be manky (I bet) and as a results you will get a lot of runs.

£150 is actually a little cheap but it would secure the job. Any less and you would regret it.

That's a lot of glass at the front for 30mins. 45mins maybe if done properly with a very high flow of hot water.

Guys, I'm not wfp so am just guessing as to how long it'd take...and from what I'm always reading about how fast wfp is I "guesstimated" about 1 hour. OK if it takes 2 hours then surely one charges for 2 hours work...3 hours then charge for 3 hours work.  But YWCS's £175? Blimey this must be for an entires days work and no way with wfp would it take a day to complete.

I'm so grateful that you guys exist....you keep me fully booked ;D

I would have thought that about right, those are big windows, if they bead badly the job could take all day.

On a monthly cleaning schedule I would quote about £85 and I would expect to get the contract.  Two of us would take 45 minutes to do the job.

Inc back, front and sides there would nearly be 250 panes of glass and most of them are big, even the small ones are about the size of a pain of glass in a house, so i would definatly say £230  but £200 would get the job and thats just windows,
