Been out canvassing for a few hours yesterday and today and a lot of people have had leaflets put through their doors advertising £5 cleans not FROM £5 JUST £5 ON WFP. Total idiots, some of these houses i would have priced at £10 to £12. How the hell can you have a price on your leaflets? I mean how long is a piece of string? Total idiots i say

They wont last for long mate, fly by window cleaners.

most of my work is £5 per house  per fortnight  (Average 3 bed semi NO conservatory)and i  only use WFP system
I CAN assure you i am not fly by night after spending over £2k to kit my van out after using a DIY system for the past year and its sign writen as well 

round where i am from people dont want to and cannot afford to pay and with the credit crunch people dont have as much money

I have spoke to a few Long standing cleaners that i come across when im cleaning and like me they say its hard to get more than £8 per house round here ......

Each to there own i say
I can sleep at night knowing i am doing a good job and that my customers are happy

yes there will be some people buying a ladder and a shammy and starting to window clean while the sun shines ...thats there problem..

in the current climate would you rather clean 5 houses at £5 per fortnight or clean 0 houses at £10 per fortnight


ill await the slating i will get for this post but please dont all people who clean windows for £5 as idiots!!

[kenaltobelli]

eclipse its all to do with areas i get allsorts £5 to whatever
the trick is to have a good mix.
no good doing an entire army camp making loads and it shuts down
i lost a few farms when the foot and mouth broke never got them back
would be nice to live in london with all them yupies to take to the cleaners

[ronnie paton]

but you cant clean 5 semi on your own in a hour surely.

im quick amd i dont think i could.

if you cleaned it once a month for 10 you would be going once earning more and lets be honest they dont need cleaning twice a month

Don't do houses but, £5 a house wfp, standard semi, probably get the whole street at them prices, so could do 4 an hour, still turns £160 a day CASH!

[lippy]

ive got a mate hes been window cleaning 25 years,he can do 10 council houses in an hour 4.50 a house off ladders,he does them properly as well 45 an hour

[AJ]

Someone who has come from a min wage job to start up w/c, will be well chuffed if he can do even just 2 £5 houses an hour.

4 an hour yeah, for 8 hours 5 days a week NO, and what about bad weather! No chance of catching up unless you work 9-10 hours, or do 5 an hour Its possible but if you can push for more then do! Ive worked in areas at £5 a house, and couldnt get any more than that, so i sold up and changed area, id rather drive 20 miles and have easier work, but if your happy then who am i to say

And i have £5 houses, but not 3 bed semis, much smaller!

[collins82002]

so i'm going from trad to WFP soon how much difference in charging should it be the average price in my area is £5.50 trad style

At  that rate, your mate would give Terry Turbo Burrows (The World's Fastest Window Cleaner) a run for his money

[WISEOWL]

I do four bedroom houses 5.50.

Above and conservatories 8.00.

Been window cleaning 7 years and WFP 7 months, have large customer base and lose very little yet have a lot of new custom.

A lot of window cleaners got greedy during the 00's charging what they wanted.
