hi guys
Could anyone help me with pricing on this one.
We currently provide a cleaning service for a large construction company.They are very pleased with the service and I have been told today that people always comment abut how nice and clean the site is within the portable cabins
The guy who runs the contract said today that they are going to contact me in a few weeks about doing the cleaning for a new site also.
Only problem is that the other site is 40 mins away by car :-\It's an area which we don't usually cover but I really want this contract as it is a good one.
It will be cleaning 5 double stacked portable offices and toilet area's.It is a whole days cleaning for one girl.
I have no idea how to price this and I did tell the contractor that I may have trouble finding someone to cover cos oif the distance, he said "well just up your wages for staff and include in quote" seems straight forward enough but I have never done a contract this big before so could anyone tell me if these prices sound ok.
I am thinking of paying the cleaner who covers this £7.50 per hour so that is 7.50x35 thats £262.50 per week wage b4 tax.
I'm thinking of charging £15 ph that comes to £525 per week for one cleaner providing 35 hrs cleaning.
thats like over 2 grand a month, I have never done a big contract like this before so to me that seems staggering but I guess it is also the biggest private construction company in Uk so to them its not a biggee!Do u think that calculation is too steep?
