How to Price Your Window Cleaning Service

Perhaps one of the greatest mysteries of the new self-cleaning window is knowing what to charge for window cleaning services. First you must remember that a growing business, and as such, the revenues go toward the cost of running the business, and putting food on the kitchen table and a roof over his head. Now you mention on the website about the search window cleaners, $ 50/hr and up, but you may be wondering how the prices of actual work, so look for this money from them.

Target earnings target

I usually tell beginners seeking to set a goal of about $ 50 / hour for the first few months (one year) in the biz. If a new window cleaner can achieve this consistently, you'll be well on his way earning $ 60 - $ 70/hr by the second year. Here's why. Even after you expected it to charge what window / work in order to achieve a return of $ 50/hr, then it is an unqualified search window cleaner. That's right, until it's cleaning windows for a while, still technically unskilled. But after he got the skills to clean windows more quickly and more professionally, increase in the hourly return.

I tell a story window cleaner presentation on DVD, when I first started window cleaning, priced out of a job, where he is the only way around $ 35/hr. The following year I returned to do a clean re-bid the same price, but because of improvements in my technique, income, employment rose to $ 70/hr. Simply because it is now more clean windows every hour.

How to price (bid) for a job

After studying the price range (retail) in the entire North American market, we found that window cleaning companies charge anywhere in the main window of the $ 4 / $ 8 and the lower percentage of high-end windows. Storm windows are usually much higher price, because the amount of work, not only to clean, but the time required to take them apart and put them back together. French tables (cut up small) fee is often $ 1 / $ 1.50 in in / out for each panel. The two things determine how we charge per box price corresponds to the non-profit making and what the market is bare.

Pricing commercial work a little different. In general, the price per box will be lower than the working population. The causes of such things as the level of competition in, a window style (usually), more frequent visits (sometimes called a contract for weekly / monthly / quarterly, etc.) In many cases, you may ask just to clean the exterior glass only . Will be priced anywhere between $ 1 to $ 2 window panes on the side panel is quite common in commercial ground glass, but should be increased, depending on other variables.
