Hi Tim,
By the way I’m not having a go at the way you charge for new builds, as you have said it’s what works for the individual.
Certain jobs have to be priced by the sq ft, sq metre, cubic ft, cubic metre, if I was asked to thermal fog a smoke damaged property, it would be worked out on the area concerned, if I was asked to clean a carpet it would be the same.
We used to work our prices out by the square foot.....However, more often or not, you are getting for example a 1 bedroom 1 bathroom apartment at 645 sq ft....and an identical one next door at 690 sq ft. This also took us a lot of time working out our quotes.
Kind Regards
Tim
Hang on Tim, a lot of time to work out, 0.15 x 645 = £96.75 and 0.15 x 690 = £103.50
If the jobs a pain 0.25 per sq ft.
If I get an enquiry for a new build clean, I can give the developer a good idea of what I will charge for the initial clean from the size of the property immediately.
Regards
Paul
