Got 2 24ft poles, small 12ft for downstairs, 65ft pole, thermohose, reel squeegees ladders scrims etc. All the equipment realy for trad and wfp. Machine only 2years old and serviced every year. Income is 4500 each month and all done with wfp.
Thanks Ryan

The business is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. Price the up the equipment seperately as you may need to seperate this from the round when selling. Ask Platinum for the value of the round as he seems to get rediculous stupid prices for his rounds so he might be able to sell it for you.

That could be a good idea pricing up seperate never thought of that and the price of the rounds is a difficult one as 3quarters are compact and others  bits and bats but the company has a good rep and regularly pick new customers from word of mouth.

I doubt any accountant cleans windows Stan, but I bet they can value a window cleaning business more accurately than you.

Are you after selling up? or just to get a value? If after selling up there are loads of people wanting window cleaning rounds. Just read the past posts, items for sale and cleaning contracts.

Accountants know f all about pricing window cleaning rounds. Can you put a price on good will ??? a good accountant would advise you from buying good will.

I never said anything about not needing an acountant, ive had 3-4 different accountants through different businesses and each one advised me the same. dont buy good will.  Obviously a window cleaning business is good will.

Why would you want to sell up, compact cleaning rounds are much sought after.
