Do you charge more for build up on roofs?
Permalink  
 


I bid my first job this week, 3700 sq ft 2 story home in a prominent neighborhood. Shingle one layer roof. I think I may have over bid (which I do not mind vs. under) for $475.00 an extra $100.00 for build up of moss. I then gave a 15% discount as advertised on my homepage. Roughly $490.00
Sad part is I am not ready. I don’t have the experience quite yet. Sooooo, I called Chris from Apple.....and here I am.
Did I over bid?
Am I in over my head?

If I land the job, and I didn’t under bid.....would someone like to come to Lake County Florida and make $490.00??? I will be ready to work for free!!

Any advice is welcome.......

Is the 3700 sq. ft. the area of the roof or the square footage of the home. How about some pictures.

Roof Moss can be a PITA to remove, we neeed pictures.

H20 Cleaning who posts on here might want to go do that job with you, maybe even Larry from Palm Harbor Roof Cleaning ?

You could watch them clean the roof, get experience ???
