If it took me five hours to clean a sofa, I'd be saying "it is what it is ma'am" after the 46th minute!

I have never spent 5 hours on a sofa, but neither have I ever spent as few as 45 minutes. Hour and a half is the norm.

 

[Chris A]

... So you probably don't clean very many?

I suppose I clean as many as the next guy.

Don't sweat it.

It was a paid lesson in time management. Now you know when you see something similar to price it a bit higher.

$60.00 a hour is survivable, you didn't lose any, you just didn't make as much as you could.

 

[GCCLee]

You could say that again!



We flat moved to get it done in the time we did.




An I didn charge fur the fertilizer : )

Don't feel bad, I under bid a job by $5k... Still made money, just didn't make as much as we could have.... $10k for 4 days isn't too shabby...

 

[Becker]

I bid a job over the phone for $340, guy asked a time estimate. I told him maybe 3 hrs.
Took me 2... So I charged him $300.00

4 hours for a sofa? Crazy! I've spent that on 2 rooms with urine before.
