How can I found out what the average price is in my area?

Call a local competitor and get an estimate for your house.

Make sure you give him $25 or something for his time and introduce your self

If you call a guy and ask for his price for your house tell him why you are doing it and offer to buy him lunch or something. Don’t just call and ask for an estimate. That’s wasting rhe guys time and I know I wouldn’t like it.

I have the residenrial price list for three or 4 guys. I carry their invoices and they carry mine. If I’m in a bind and need someone to wash houses for me they leave my invoices and vice versa. We settle up when we need to.

And be sure to explain to him that you don’t want to be the $99 guy.

Just talk to your customers they will tell you everything you need to know…when I lose bids I just ask who they ended up going with and what they are paying…and I tell them I hope everything goes well and if they ever need anything to please keep me in mind …
