Indeed Tadgh.

Nice one Chris  ;)

I would have thought chris would have been more than happy to advise you on that as well as the use of algoclear

I've already put in a price Smudger but just now wondering if I was too cheap.

Whilst on the phone with Chris I forgot to ask about pricing Algoclear jobs up as you do. Doh!

Sounds reasonable smurf all 4 sides, about 3 hours to spray then walk away, or are you doing other stuff as well ??

As well as the render walls price includes cleaning the wooden foot bridge, paving, wood cladding at front, rear decking, balcony decking, balcony walls and all external glass. I should be well knackered after all that  ;D

Well, it's a lot for that price (IMO)

Render clean £900
Bridge and decks £500
Paths £100
Window clean £50
Total £1550 + vat - however I would offer 10% discount as a complete package

The chap had it done 2 years ago for considerably less so I thought 950 was pushing my luck somewhat. Mind you the chap did say it was a poor job   :D

Indeed and I bet that guy who phoned me to see if I would clear that guttering as a subby because he did not have a long enough ladder is kicking himself right know. The chap wanted to deal directly with me so I don't think he wants to use the other guy anymore somehow.

I was thinking price wise, for what you have got to do I would be using hypo as well to off set against the price, definatley not paying for algo within that.

2 x guys should be well done and cleaned up within a day so u being 1 of them there's still enough to make a decent pay day for urself.

That's still ok ish, only a days labour chem and travel costs should still make 500-600 for a days work.

Look at it like that and it's a nice days work, for an extra £20 could you not clean with hypo then treat with algo afterwards....... Am asking not suggesting, av never used algo or done a job like that before, so keen to learn.

Don't worry I will have some hypo in the van aswell just in case. ;)

Still I want to try algopro first on that one as if it works well may lead to a lot more work as there are 70 ish posh second homes with K rend walls, decking etc that need cleaning on that gated estate.

I'm not greedy so 700 + clear would do me just fine even if it took 2 days to do properly.
