Not sure what to charge for a job? Post it here and let other owners tell you honestly whether your number holds up.
How it works#
How to post
1. What the job is. For example: "Deep clean, 3-bedroom house, inside oven and fridge included."
2. Your estimate in hours, including travel and setup.
3. Materials and what they cost you.
4. Your price, and how you got to it.
5. Where you are, roughly (country or region), since prices differ a lot.
House rules
- Be honest and kind. Everyone underpriced a job once.
- No selling. Don't pitch your services or tools in replies.
- Talk about the numbers, not the person.
