When I used to sub for Econorod I got a call to attend the Ann Summers in Canterbury - to fix a vibrating toilet ! Obviously I thought it was a wind up but they gave me a job number so off I went. The fault turned out to be dust on the extractor fan causing the stud wall to vibrate. The manager said they were told not to use the washroom so they could not wash their hands, I said they should wash their hands after they use the toilets as they were using the loos in the department store opposite - she said it was particually important to wash their hands after handling products the customers brought back under warranty.

I realise I cannot walk into Tesco's Southport or Sainsburys Crosby and ask the girl at the customer information "can I clean your roof ? "
That's why I am posting on here ….In the hope that somebody might give me the correct procedure   for approaching them and also how to price.
Thanks in advance.

You run an exterior surface cleaning business...........

[chris scott]

So first I need a website and pay for a couple of meaningless accreditations then Tesco's will phone me to clean the roof?

M-clean genuine question.

You don't have the equipment or prior experience when dealing with flying rats …so why pick you? It is not on your website.
How do you price this?

[Aqua Power Solutions]

Chris , you also will find that these accreditations differ from one client to another ! ie Safecontractor , SSIP , CSCS , ect

Not forgetting PLI . You may have to increase your premium !

I have had to do my CSCS , IPAF , PASMA , FIRST AID  ,

All of this ,  has to be in place before you are even considered to be approved on their list .

When approved !!! , you have to be  successful in your quote , RAMS to be approved

Work within their diagram and initial outlay of Fuel , Labour , Accommodation , Hire Equipment , Utility usage

Payment 3 month later

 Lets pretend… a little far fetched I know but I have…
The gear to do the job.
All the qualifications, ipaf ,cscs , construction on line ,first aid ,safety passport, irate.
I have a website with some "big job" pictures on.
Ltd company with 10 million PL.
I can blag  a customer I can do the job if I get them on the phone.
I can do the job better than most…because I understand the soiling and chemicals to use.
25 page risk assessment.
I have enough money to wait 3 months to get payed  (really …that long).

Now all I need is Tecos to phone me… how do i get them to do this?
How do I price when they do.





I still don't have the client or Job to quote for

[Aqua Power Solutions]

Chris , that is a big question to ask , no one is going to divulge how you make contacts with clients ...

Pricing is all down to you ,look at all of the above and price accordingly .Your client will expect  a discount to secure the works !!

Chris tesco won't be calling they use 5 cleaning companies to do there cleaning and at the moment they are cutting back to save money

[chris scott]

The forum has malfunctioned!!
 All Rob's (supermarket roof) posts have disappeared 
I thought we had started again and advice was being freely given?

Lucy ..thanks for your input.
Do you know which 5 cleaning companies they use?

[Lucy bowers]

Chris I no a couple and I no the specs on the stores and it never includes roofs

Welcome to the forum

It seems that you have entered the world of Crosby Chris.

I clean supermarket roofs, amongst a lot of other 'supermarket' related external works.

You are right they are not in the store budget. They are done from capital expenditure, so when they have refurbs, refreshes, extensions etc they may be included in the costings.

I don't have the monopoly, far from it but I do a fair bit.

I have erased all previous posts because Chris can be ..............

Well i'll let you find out for yourself. Don't be put off
