Going rate for a window cleaner?
Discussion
What do you pay for a window cleaner?
We live in a small 2 bed house which has a total of 5 windows (one of which is postage stamp sized for the bathroom and is opaque so probably doesn't even need cleaning). We have just been quoted £50 for a one off clean. I reckon it will take the best part of 20-25 minutes to do them. Am I being tight? Is that the going rate? If it is I think I need to change careers (oh and get a head for heights, or at least a long squeegy on a pole). I remember when my parents had a window cleaner and it was £4 for a much bigger house with loads more windows but it was a few years ago now!

Seriously, do it yourself, I do, with an extension pole, you won't even need a ladder.
I was paying £18 for a five bedroomed detached with a large conservatory, but he was crap, missing all the corners so I fired him off.
Usually do them once a month, more if needed. Takes forty minutes at most.
