I thought £60 8 weekly. Quick job I'd have thought. Glad you concur Matt.

Gutter vac definately.
£200 got it booked in for next saturday.
£50 every 4 weeks for windows.
Also off to quote his fish factory next week.
Windows arent that many.most gutters are low too and are black so shouldnt be too bad.

Is that every four weeks until sold?

I know a window cleaner who's been shining for 20 years. We worked together for a short while, he's been window cleaning in Devon for 10 years now and always says the prices down there aren't the same as here.


I believe him, as he's been in the game 20 years so knows his stuff.

Window cleaners can get into a habit of pricing according to how their own view of what price the customer will accept.

There's a window cleaner I've known for years around here who says exactly the same thing about this area. He's also been window cleaning since the year dot.

The prices he charges are to me way to low but he says the customers won't accept etc etc etc but I seem to have no problem getting good prices for jobs.
Just chant..... Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. It's beats chanting Tory Tory or Labour Labour.

This is true Ross. However in this fellas instance I wouldnt say that is the case. The chap I refer to is highly motivated, employ three guys, and certainly doesnt suffer fools gladly.

He'd be the last to be a 'busy fool' as we talk about on here sometimes.

Im not frustrated at all mate. Odd you should say that as you dont know my pricing structure. I can only assume you're taking it personally. Which is a shame as it wasnt meant that way.

By the way you still havent responded to an earlier question I put.

i was joking mate. When i do a quote, i never count the windows, i charge regarding the time i will spend to do the clean. Always easier to charge more with a big house. I never charge more for the 1st clean but my price is not negotiable! Take longer to built my round but so far i believe,i have a well priced round (and never lost a customer in 2 years time)
