Hi Paul
Out of interest what sort of windows are they, bays, Panels, Georgian etc
I have just won a 6 property contract and one of the buildings I had to put a quote in for had 900 individual Georgian windows to be cleaned inside and out, end up doing on a day rate of about £260. Per clean for 2X 11hr day. This work is just what you need this time of year.
If you put on a day rate give yr self plenty of time and a bit easier to price too

They are straight forward windows, ie just shop windows.I probably could do it in 1 day with another lad, but i was thinking about 50 to 60p per window x 1600 windows=£8-900 would i then include the VAT thanks

I am just South of Bristol if you need some help with this contract.

[Paulcoz33]

Mick to be honest im not sure i want the job anyway.Myself and the lad i have working for me could do the job ourselves, But if you would be interested in doing it if we dont please give me your price and i will seriously consider subbing it out to you.like i said i dont have the measurements but in total their are 1426 paines of glass all different sizes, its at the front of a shop.It would need to be done on a Sunday afternoon when closed.I just think this job is a little to big for me a present so if i can Sub it out and still make a profit im interested.

Hi Paul,

if its the big Asda Walmart at Cribbs Causway you're talking about, well I was in there a few months ago and the guys they had window cleaning looked like a right old motley crue!

No pouches, scrims, applicators or squeegees.  They had SPONGES! with water so soapey they must've emptied about 5 bottles of fairy into it!

One was working while about 4 others stood around their battered old van smoking and looking grim.

After having that lot, I bet if you just turn up and look halfway professional, they wont mind what you charge!

Silly

Silly no its no walmart, but what would i charge for 1426 paines to be cleaned anyway what would they get paid to do cribbs causeway
