I reckon the only way to price this one is to put them on an hourly rate... I have a lot of properties like this and as long as you work efficiently and they see you workin hard then go for £35 an hour..... its the only way as you wont get bitten by under estimating the time to do it.... nowt worse than starting a job knowing you are about to blow ya balls off on it!!!

I'd never tell a customer my hourly rate.

It's just the internet. Try not to worry.

+1 most people will not think about overheads. All they will hear is £35 per hour. Usually more than they get paid. Although granted probably not in this case.

I'd put a staff cleaner on that, should be done in about 6 hours. I'd ask for £100. No special skill or risk involved, anyone could do it.

£100? What's a staff cleaner and where can I find one? :)

Thats one of your general cleaning team who you pay £7 PH. You can even hire in cleaners from an external agency or cleaning provider for around £9 to £10 PH who will clean interior windows. :)

Its not realy that big though! I still reckon £120 maybe £150 at a push. Not much more than 4 normal houses equivlent.

Considering how many £6 semi cleaners are on this forum and calling me a conman for charging just £15 for a 3bed semi loli think its crazey all these massive prices for this job but there you go!.

seriously guys that job would take the best part of a day inside and outside esp if they ve not been cleaned for a while.then you ve got to factor in travel time to and from the job.

id be going in at £200 for inside and outside take it or leave it.
price higher/work harder!

Well, I did the insides of both conservatories today - over three hours  :o

I think Dazmonds figure is spot on - shame I didn't charge that much though. Bugger!

Just found out the woman is an actress (thought she looked familiar) and the buggers have put the house up for sale for one point two million. So much for a regular cleaner then.  ::)roll

Told you. A job like that you don't take risks on it being regular.

half as much again for insides than outsides. why work for an hourly rate? prefer to price jobs individually so theres an incentive to make a decent wage not some set hourly rate otherwise whats the point in being self employed clock watching
