Hi Guys,

I was asked last week to quote for a big hotel to be cleaned on a regular basis, I'm well pleased at this as I have been re-shaping my round and getting quicker of course (it's my first 6 months!) and I have one week free at the end of my month rotation. Having a look around I think it would take me 4 days to do the whole job on my own so I was going to price it as a week just so I have some back up if I under estimated it..

So guy's, my question is, what would you charge a commercial business (a classy place to boot!) for a weeks work? I don't want to over charge and risk loosing the job as I need the work, but equally don't want to under price myself and end up kicking myself forever..

I'm thinking around £300-£400 I know some of you might laugh at that for a weeks work and some may says that'll do nicely, but what I need to find out is what is reasonable, what is cheap, and what is pushing my luck!!

All input greatly received.

Hi Andy
I too have only been at it for about six months or so.
I would say be very careful not to under price
You know what you can earn in a day at the moment. and if like me you are getting quicker all the time then ask yourself what you are going to be earning in a few months time?
You could if your not careful limit your potential earnings for a long time.
If it were me in your situation I think I would go in high and hope for the best.
If they dont like it they will tell you and you can come down a bit (but you cant go up so easily!)
All the best with it
Let us know how it goes

how big is this hotel

well if you think it will take you 4 days, 400 quid, but as you said, you should have a extra day (just in case)

500 quid

100 quid a day does me nicely
