Haven't got the experience to know if that's good or over the top, but dialed in a drive I did Friday and came out at £400 over double the price I charged

I thought my prices were ok as we were there under 2 hours...

Not sure I could wring any more out of my customers around here  :-\

They say they are getting £800+ pounds for 100sqm :o ...the good bit is they will seal it for a extra £100. ???

You can become a franchise for £20,000

Bet they don't get a lot of jobs at those prices though! I charge £2.50 sqm patios and £3.75 block paving with a re-sand. Around my area this is about the norm

That's mental. For a 100m sq patio it's £856. That's £8.56 per sq metre. Can't be right.

I think they are taking the pee somewhat but interesting they sate they will beat any written quote ;D

My quick quote results for a patio slab clean :o

Based on the information you have provided, with a total surface area of 54 square meters

your estimated quote would be £ 349 + VAT

your estimated quote would be £ 418 inc. VAT


Remember that we offer a discount if you supply the water feed for us. We will also beat any written quote.

Shall we have a play with them then?  ;D

I'll send an email in someone else's name(Chris Scott will do)to them asking them to confirm they will beat any written quote , once they confirm I will send them a written quote from Blast Away which will be much cheaper and also taking into account Blast Away would have to travel further than them!  :) See what they say!
