Ok, So Lets Price This. Just A Little One....

I wouldn't get £10 for a house like this.. Nor if I was a customer I wouldn't pay a tenner to have them cleaned.. People complain he under cut me, he stopping us earning a living.. Well charging a tenner for a house like that what can you expect!

A guy asked me to quote a big house today 27 windows in all some of them large ones too, told him should be about £25 but would do for between £15 & £20.

He said that the old window cleaner did it for £8 but they had not seen for a while cause he was ill, and was giving him time to come back. i said no wonder he is ill at that price......lol

[OoO]

I think a lot of people are forgetting areas.

I have seen some mad prices quoted on here, shame but the north/south divide is very true still in the day an age.

When these guys get onto pricing Sharon they put their blinkers on, especially the lads charging £10 and above for it, don't stand in the way /emoticons/ph34r.png

North south divide seems very true,quite shocking,glad I live in south,of to work,let's crack on.

 

[CNS-southwest]

You can see why there is a divide though, example: mine an Niels outgoings monthly are around £1400, down south/London way and I'm in a council house!!!!

 

[adyspurs]

blimey gov,that's harsh.mine was £1000 but had a little win fall now only £500.

yh im down south too, and i get that general outgoings are higher, but surely if your customer works then they are earning at least minimum wage wether their north or south, and if your outgoings are much lower up north then why wont people pay the same for the same service? does BT give a lower price to their custys up north? or tescos? or do they charge the same and still earn the same? just a thought

I agree,

If you live in London, living expenses is said to be between 7%-10% higher than the rest of the country.

Any other differences from 10% either way, probably just stem from peoples assumptions about location & pricing. Doesn’t make it easier if any potential customers you give a quote to, assume (think) you should be charging less for window cleaning, but you shouldn’t agree with them other wise you agree with there expertise! On pricing for window cleaning, who is supposed to know more on the subject?

Doesnt matter about prices as long as ya happy

That’s just lame H; you can be happy with lower prices or higher prices.

You can be happy earning whatever you want to get from window cleaning, work as little or as much as you want, but that’s no excuse for pricing.

I always try to price competitively, basically keeping the cost to the customers as low as I can.
