Been asked to quote for the cleaning below. Usual cleaning of gutters/fascia's etc but also restoring the white upvc frames. (they're not particularly bad grey stains etc but will need to clean by hand) Its a 4 bed semi nice area. I'm estimating around 4-5 hours cleaning and was wondering if anyone else has done similar and what kind of price I should put in. I could just go for £35 ph so roughly £175 would this be fair, or in your opinions would it be worth trying for more. Sorry no pic's

Cleaning Required:

External Gutter, Drain Pipes and Fascia Board Clean
Restoration Clean of 3 x UPVC Window Frames & 2 x Bays Fronts with canopy

its hard to say being as there are no pics. But it sounds like a fair price to me.
Why not start at £195 and see if they take it, if not drop it to £175.

I find its important not to be too greedy for these types of cleans. It'll be a nice easy job.

That's exactly the way I was thinking Richy, didn't want to come across as a rip off or greedy. I always look at it as if I was paying for the service and think how much I would be prepared to cough up.

Its funny but when I price con cleans normally around £80 - £120 depending on size I rarely get any grief and all for around 2 hrs work. Its just when you start pricing around the £200 for domestic I think it sounds like you are way over the top even though there could be a lot more work/hours involved.

At the end of the day I'll go with may instinct/ target hourly rate and see how it goes.

people dont want to go up on a ladder to clean it all, I always say It'll be X amount, but you wont need it to be done again for another two years or so, maybe three. Thats what usually persuades them

4-5 hours i would say 175-200 pounds,i think is a fair price considering this wont have to be done for a long time,and tell them that. Good luck with job.

I would imagine youll do well to stretch that out to 5 hours, I think youll find youll have a handsome hourly rate there; maybe even embarassed to ask for what you quoted.

Still, nought necessarily wrong with that.
