How is the best way to price job’s. By the pane? By the window? Or by the hour?

I’m interested to know how you all price up your jobs. I spoke to a guy a coupe of days ago and he said that he charges 120$ for the first hour and about 100$ per hour after that but most jobs would be done in 2 hours. What’s your method? and dose it change from store’s to residential, and commercial businesses?

Here in the uk i price by the hour so that way if the job takes longer than you thought it doesn’t matter cuz you’ll charge more.

Thanks mate. I love your videos too and your tips and tricks. Do you always have work on booked up in the UK? Or dose it get quiet from time to time?
And I need to tell ya something; ENGLAND IS GOING TO WIN THE WORLD CUP THIS YEAR!!! Whoop whoop

We price by the window. If done correctly you should make your desired per hour wage .

I don’t like making my price per hour, fixed prices are better. the faster you are the more you have earned.

I thought I saw you price 1 pound for lower level and 1.5 for upper level? Wonder how that translates into US dollars.

Storefronts here seem to be priced and cleaned more similar to the UK’s residential

Always have a minimum on everything.

I price per pane and that tells me what I’ll make per hour. If the job takes less time then it’s a bonus.

$120 min for me for anything ranging from a small water stain removal to cleaning a turdstain on a upholstery deposited by fido…

I charge by windows, and sometime by pane. I try very hard to keep it at $100/hr rate.

Yes, here in Germany as well . Storefronts are very hard to get. the shops usually can not decide for themselves. you always have to contact the central office. These have several offers and take the cheapest.
