Evening Chap where have you been hiding.

Is it one building or is it split into houses if you know what i mean.

To do the whole building i would look at around £200

I would want a closer look.

Hi mate , been balls out lately , hardly been online !

Obviously it used to be one but it has just been made into five , 45 back , 45 front and 15 on each side , when i priced up it came out at £150 , a bit low i know but im learning slowly to hike the prices a bit !

Hi Rich

am i right in thinking that they are georgian windows not that it makes any difference with wfp, how often do they want them cleaned?  Perfect job for wfp

Brett.

Going by the pictures and not being able to see the back, £400.

How long did it take to do the ones you have??

[P @ F]

I've started to price on the time it takes.

I priced a job not too long ago very similar to the one you have pictured , just a bit smaller.

It totalled £125 & it took me just over 3.5hours. Iwas happy with that.

Remember prices will vary across the country.

The £400 Ross posted people might pay elsewhere but you know aswell as me people won't pay that sort of money down here.

Craig

[P @ F]

Craig , it took about 3 hours , will be quicker next time i should imagine , i wanted to spend a while on it to make sure it was spot on first time in , it could help to get the other end ones !

And thats not all , the house itself is part of an old loony bin , it has chapels ,pottery workshops hospital wings and loads of other stuff which has all been converted to houses , loads of yet untapped .

And get this , the w/c before me used to do the main house i got off a ladder !

Should be right at home there then matey 

Craig

[P @ F]

Im still there , they wont let me go home !

[Trevor Knight]

With what your picture shows I would look for £180 for the whole house. If it took you 3 hours then maybe I would consider dropping to £145 but would want to see the whole building first.

Nice one to have though, well done mate.

Trev

[P @ F]

Thanks Trevor , the trouble is with the southwest , they dont like big W/C bills , i would rather go in a bit low and get the job , if there is one thing i cant stand its 10 mins pack up move on 10 mins pack up days , too much time packin up when i could be on one site for half the day and earn double .

True my pricing does need a bit of work , but that will come in time .

you have to look at it as if you were cleaning it by hand , if it is georgeon i would charge  12p a pane ground 15 p a pane on first floor , then a premium for 2nd floor which as to be 20p a pane.

You will find that formula will give you at least £25-£30 an hour , even more when you get used to doing it

Dave

For abuilding that size, and all georgian too, plus the fact it is 3 floors, I would be up around where Ross priced it too.
Could you imagine doing that trad and how long it would take you?
3 floors of big georgian windows?

My price would be cheaper than I would clean it were I doing it trad, but only by about £50 or so.

Ian

[S.A.J]

I would say £175-200, spend the whole day there take your time. Not bad for a days work on your own.

Most people would have to work 3-4 days or even a week to earn that and in a crapy job too.
