The thing abour Pimlico is they are up front with their pricing structure.
Agree or disagree as to their charges, for me, isn't the issue.
It's the fact that their prices are there for all to see, and by that I mean, and let's be honest about this: time and time again most of the phone calls you receive from prospective customers, those customers are really only interested in one thing: The cost.

Regardless of Pimlico's prices, the calls they receive are most problably converted into jobs, as the customer already knows the price prior to picking up the phone.
Not saying I agree with their costing structure, but have to take my hat off to them for actually placing the aforementioned pricing online.
In a dog eat dog business that takes a certain amount of guts and confidece.

How much time do you waste chasing customers only to catch shadows.

I doubt most of Pimlicos customers care less what they charge. If you're house is worth a million plus, 95 an hour is neither here nor there

Rich people aren't stupid, they didn't get all that money by paying over the odds for services. They will be fully aware of what things cost, and will pay a good price for a good service which is what Pimlico offer.
 
We should all treble our prices then....

One point, why is the op going to london when he is already charging £60-65 for first hour?
3-4 of those a day is decent money
 
Il be near retired by the time I get to that rates lol. I do find it fascinating the huge difference in rates that come from the same area. I understand different areas different costs of living etc but you find tradesman in the same area have a huge variation in rates.
 
Some people are willing to work for peanuts, others arn't. And people's quality of work differs.
