Hi guys, need a bit of advice. I’m changing the way I price my fascia & gutter cleans & want to know if I’m being reasonable? usually I charge £20 a side to clean & £10 a side to empty. I find the emptying contents out quick & easy 90% of the time so that price doesn’t really bother me. But the fascia soffit gutter cleans do my nut. My £20 a side price was basically for any length really, it could be 5m a side some 7m etc.
so I’ve come up with a price plan!
upstairs gutter, fascia, soffit clean £4 a meter
Upstairs gutter, down pipe clearance £2.50 a meter
upstairs down pipe clean £5 each each
lower level (e.g bottom of a pitched roof)gutter, fascia & soffit clean £2.50 a meter
lower level gutter down pipe clearance £1.50 a meter
lower level down pipe clean £2.50 each
On this basis a 3 bed semi with three 5m sides, upstairs only, no lower levels. fascia soffit guttering clean & empty contents of gutters & say 2 down pipes would be a grand total of £107.50 according to my calculations.
Is this a fair quote???
since I’ve started doing this my customers seem put off by it but I’m fed up of cleaning 3 sides of a house for £50/£60 & them also expecting the guttering cleared out & down pipes cleaned as well for the same price. It can end up a near 2 hour job for 2 of us if footings are needed!
