How Much Should I Charge to Do a Clean Install on a Computer?

-
Check the Local Competition
-
Check what professionals in your area charge for the same service and look to charge an average amount. Most qualified computer technicians will charge an inflated rate for their first hour of work and drop back to a flat rate thereafter.

Provide Value for Money
-
You should only look to charge the professional going rate for the service you're offering if you are fully qualified. If you are merely charging an acquaintance for this service on the basis that your knowledge of computer software is better than his, you should set your fee accordingly.
Bottom Line
-
It's not a particularly difficult task to complete a clean install of a computer's operating system. It would be difficult to justify charging the rates of a fully qualified computer technician when the average computer user could carry it out with minimal research.
