Hi

does a/m mean a machine? If so I have a Ninja I can rent you. As for pricing I would charge £4-5 per chair.

Just to give you an idea of time.

I cleaned 60 dining chairs with my portable a couple of years ago.
( Base and back upholstered )

It took me 4 hrs from start to finish.

I charged £3 per chair.

With the fixed seating measure the total length, and charge a price per foot length.

Pricing fixed upholstery is difficult ? £3 to £4 per foot ?

perhaps best to try work out how many hours to complete the lot and work it out on your day rate ? assuming that you def want to get the job ?

In my experience fixed bar/club seating usually comes in sections of around 6 ft in length.  As there are no cushions or double sides we charge £30.00 per section.

Two days? Oh yea you’re a porty boy, all that filling and not too much to empty. Now I see why you need them for two days. No problem you can also try out my CFR hand tools.

Pricing charge by the hour! Also 7 days on receipt of invoice.
