Comments: Well established quality window cleaning round, all done with traditional ladder method, in the North & South Lanarkshire areas. All customers conditioned to all weather cleaning, during all year round. Good payers: all usually pay cash on the day. Plenty of scope to build the round more, as new customers join every week. Selling round to concentrate on a business abroad. Plenty of extra work including gutters, pvc cleaning and power washing etc. Weekly average turnover is £2,400. Willing to split round up to sell as follows: North Lanarkshire Wishaw/Newmains area £25,000. South Lanarkshire Carluke/Law village areas £30,000. South Lanarkshire Lanark area £4,000. The complete round is sold at a discounted price of £45,000. No timewasters please, as we are all very busy and I am not interested in leasing the rounds out or paying for the business in instalments. People looking for a serious business oportunity only. Please contact by email first.

If its genuine, yes without question

If its genuine, yes without question

same for me

[britishwill]

Thats a steal if it is so real. You will need extra staff! How many staff does the owner have working on that monthly average? Also you will have to go VAT registered. Serious consideration needed on that one!

[keen n clean]

If it says what it says on the tin...without doubt i would have it at that price.YES

[king marko]

I looked at this yesterday - id definately look into buying - if its genuine, what a steal - you'd make your money back in less than 6 mths

Get a couple of a lads working it, pay them a decent wage, sit back and retire 

[Smudger]

without a doubt 12k monthly for 45K -  bargain !

If it was nearer me I would have a look,however,12k a month trad work in Scotland might not be quite as easy as some of you guys down south might think,you are prob looking at a wage bill of around 4K (if you are adding this to an existing business) to complete the work plus the other expenses.

approx 600 man hours @£7 per hour

[Smudger]

so you would need 4 men + yourself to cover that amount - interesting

Id be curious to know how many men does it take to complete 2400 a week, day in day out TRAD?? Specially with the lovly Scottish weather..

Darran

No it would be 4 men to cover 12K of work,I would need 4 men to do the work as I am already full up,if you are able to work on it yourself obviously this would bring the wage bill down, which is why I mentioned adding 12K of work on to an existing business

4 men 4 days, 7 hour days

[Smudger]

KS - no problem just gauging your breakdown of wages etc..  and of course you lose another 20% to vat

4 men ( all employed ) would seem to be somewhere in the right ball park - i'd prob include myself initially just
as a meet and greet of the new customer base - do you think the round comes with staff ?

Darran

[wightsurf]

The weather is not a issue either as it states all weather cleaning.
So yes i would go for that ,i would also start in small areas moving to wfp.

Min living wage is 7.20  

[Perfect Windows]

£2,400 weekly is £10,400 not £12,000.

Just a thought.

Darran

Yes he would probably have some workers who would want to continue to work with the new owner.The round would still be a good earner for someone but based on the work up here it would not generate the same profit as down south,so not as much of a bargain as some might think.I pay 3 x the clean for trad and 4 x the clean for WFP

£2,400 weekly is £10,400 not £12,000.

Vin

Would de slightly more than £10 400 per month Vin but you're right,certainly not £12 000
