Hi I just started my window cleaning business up just over a month ago and I'm having troubles pricing up work.
I cleaned a conservatory today about 10ft wide and 6ft in length inside and outsides and also the glass roof bloody night mare hard to access one side of it but I made the best of a bad situation.
I also cleared the ladies gutters took me 5 mins only few leafs and so on,
job took 4 hours!!! I know I'm slow as I've just started but I've picked up the method really quickly both wfp and traditional. roof was dirty kept rinsing and rinsing more dirt kept falling and falling.
I came out of there with 60 quid, I sat in my van and thought hang on that's only 15 pound per hour plus driving time there and back about 4.5 hours in total, the customer gave me an extra tenner no wonder why lol..
a man coming out with his van and equipment for 15 pound an hour I don't think so.
How much should I be aiming for an hour,
I'm going to stick to my guns on the price I've spent 6k+ on my setup and already want to upgrade but I shouldn't run before I can walk I suppose haha.
got a call from a customer he had a 3 bed terraced house in a nice bit of town houses 1m+ but I'm in London so the house your getting for 1m isn't anything out of this world. a one off clean he wanted I said £30 he says "oh I was thinking 20" I thought you cheeky lil see you next Tuesday.
