I have been asked to clean these windows in & out  approx 3 monthly. Two sash windows on the left extension back & front. Basement windows do not need to be cleaned.

I have a price in mind bUt would like to see what you would charge just for the heck of it.

The property is at Prosperous Wimbledon South London.  I clean traditionally.

£55 or so in and out.

That place'd take about 20 minutes on the outside, or have I missed a 3,000 square foot conservatory?  You boys!

I see 16 windows, are you lot charging £2.00 a window now?? ?? ?? ??

Hi,

I use a 2 or 3 step step ladder for insides. Am curious as to why you say its tough traditionally. Ground & first off double pointer, dormer windows from inside both sides.  Easy peasy lemon squeesy.  Perhaps you mean tougher then WFP?

i think i'd try for £75 but i'd drop to £60 ( about 2 hours at most i hope = £30 an hour) dont think i'd fancy doing it as a one off for £50 though, depends how much i needed the work i suppose

no way matt!an hour to clean the outside wfp and an hour and a half insides.that includes set up time and driving away.dont forget FREQUENCY every 3 months and theres a lot of trees about so extra scrubbing and rinsing and also you dont want to rush jobs like these IMO.

£50 in and out for each clean. ( maybe add t and biscuit)

looks like a nice place to work, I'd want to be sure that I got it on board.


I wrote this before seeing wimbledon, £70 in and out quarterly.  (With super frothy double moccachino and penguin)






if it is dirty it is fair game

If i lived there i would let you do the 2nd floor wfp but otherwise i would want the trad approach, i dont think these sash windows suit wfp.

If i went to quote i would also want to do it trad and wfp 2nd storey,definitely definitely trad and having the insides to do means the outsides have got to be right.

I`ll just work out a price.

Modified my post to put in a price £68
