Yep - I get mentioned for doing the frames as well - could be a deal clincher more than I thought from what people have been saying.

obviously at least 45 windows , at that price.  I  just lost a customer ( from a rented propertry ) cos I charged £4 for 14 windows , actually I had just printed some cards to tell these people that their windows were going up to £5 from now , when another guy came round and chargred £3.... , so I lost them, well couldnt care less cos this type of person  are not worth caring about and each job took about 20 mins so that meant an hourly rate of  £ 12  so you three kwid guys get on with it, desperate t...ts

Hilly,

I guess prices vary alot across the country.

And I agree, if custies leave cuz someone has undercut you then they arnt worth having. They will regret taking on the new guy when he stops in 3 months time.

 Smiley i have just started WFP,(3 weeks ago), after 12years trad , i'm doing tops only WFP with a trolley system and bottoms trad.I'm picking up extra work on my regular customers because of windows i never could get too , such as over conservatories.The only thing that stopped me before now was worring what they would say , but NO-ONE has said they don't want it done this way.Plus it's safer. Cool

Do it. You won't regret it. It's quicker, safer and (arguably) does a better job than trad cleaning.
