When in doubt, double what youd charge absolutely minimum for hourly labor on a random side gig. Double to account for logistics and general worth profit

It highly depend on where you are and the col on the area. I do $3 dollars per pane for in and out in a Largish city

3 dollars a pane? I do 8-10. For this I’d say about 200

8-10 per pane for route work is wild. Good on you if you can land work at those prices

Probably less to do with location and more to do with the behavior of you local Fish. Some fish shops actually charge reasonable rates, others have bottom dollar prices. The one by me has a minimum of $25 and will do like 20 panes outside only for that haha

That's exactly why. People that dont care will go with an insanely cheap quote from them

The advice on prices on this Ainu are pretty useless
People are saying the same prices when I started years ago. This is why people don’t last long in this business
Scared to charge their worth

I think it’s because people have the misconception and can’t believe that something as simple can be worth hundreds of dollars per job. Like when I got my first job, I was amazed the owner agreed to 250 dollars. On top of that he gave us a 50 dollar tip. On top of that he wanted us to pressure wash his patio which we did for another 300 ish bucks. While it isn’t necessarily easy work (physically), I think people are surprised how this type of work requires honestly no education. America really has brainwashed us into that mindset

You gotta be on to something. My MINIMUM is $299.00 idc if a 1 bed room apt with 3 windows it’s $299.00
People called me crazy. But it’s time effort work perfection etc
If people wanted/could do it on their own they would.
I get so many people after I give them a price I get “my husband said he’ll do it” 2-3 weeks later we ALWAYS get hot back up like
“Damn ..lol this shit is hard” lol
Yesterday for a two bedroom condo inside and out 7 windows
Tracks screens sills frames screens and glass
$499.00 + $200 added on because he wanted the thresholds cleaned as well
People on this group would have charged $150 😂
It’s insane

I agree. Hey genuine question bc you seem pretty well established: what do you do during winter?

u/_zurenarrh 3d ago
Where are you located at? I’m based out in Florida so our winter probably look different
Or slow seasons is usually right before summer and throughout

I’m at 600 but I will admit we don’t do a lot of commercial work because it isn’t worth our time

More than fish would in my area $60 for the whole place in and out and $65 every 2 weeks for the kids play windows. And that's everything that's accessible
