Hi Guys, I am quoting this job, but really not sure how much to charge as I have only cleaned domestic conservatory roofs so far.

I cleaned the 3 panels as a demo for them and it took me about 30 mins,

Thanks,

Tony

How long did it take to clean 3 panels?

I would charge between 50p and £1 per panel

[TC1]

Great, If I give you £1.50 per panel can you do it for me!

£5 per panel, I have just counted 47 panels, so round it up to £250 it looks like a good days work, if it takes 10mins per panel.

I'd want £300 on the basis that the first 3 panels took 30 mins,  to be honest though it wouldn't bother me If I didn't get it.

You must be having laugh.

If it takes about 10 minutes a panel, why can't you work out a quote? Why did you spend 30 mins. Why didn't you just do the worst one then work it out from there?  Have I missed something here guys?

price it high as based on your 3 panels 30minutes i just counted from your photos and 2 days solid based on 10 minutes a panel wfp or trad £400 as a minimum  not including travel to and from .where are you based  and where is the job .
they will want risk assessment and method statement at minimum .

if they can get 16 more demos, you wont be needed

I miss counted, 64 panels, that would be £320, I would round it to £350.
It will take you about 11-12 hours, thats if each panel takes 10mins.

£300 for 47 panels x 10mins a panel = 8 hours work/£300 = £38 per hour! wheres the job! I'd do it if you don't want to

recalculated 68 panels counted top side only if doing top and bottom £750+
topside only £450 +

As I haven't undertaken any commercial work, as still new, I wasn't sure about pricing
(didn't want to under sell myself) and the reason I cleaned 3 panels, I think the cleanliness stands out more.
I approached them about having it cleaned and thought if they see how good it loks then they will go for it!

Lol I guestimated slightly more than 47 panels but based my quote on £30 an hour that's what I'd want anyway.

5 quid a panel, away you go mate.
