Made for independent cleaners
Good work.
Better numbers.
You know how to leave a place spotless.
Know what to charge for it, too.
Let’s price the job.
Start with your costs. We’ll do the math.
All starting values are examples. Use your own costs, not these as market rates.
Behind the number
A busy calendar
isn’t the whole story.
A job can fill your day without leaving much behind. Count the whole cost first, then build in the margin you want.
Understand the mathThat leaves $60 after costs. Adding 30% to the cost instead would leave you with a 23.1% margin.
Illustrative figures. The calculator rounds quotes up to a whole dollar.

Practical answers for the business
behind the clean.
Two cleaners. Three hours. Six hours of pay.
Count the labor you’re actually paying for.
Markup and margin aren’t the same thing.
One small distinction. A different quote.
Defining the workFewer surprises. A clearer walkthrough.
Ask the right questions before the job.
Can I use this if I’m a solo cleaner?
Yes. Set people to 1 and enter the hourly pay you want to earn for the work. Owner pay belongs in labor; profit is what remains after that pay and the other costs.
Does this work for deep cleans and move-outs?
Yes, if you estimate the time and supplies for that specific job. Include inside appliances, buildup, access, and other extra work in your scope. The calculator does not assume every house takes the same time.
Are my entries saved?
No. Entries stay in this page’s memory and reset when you reload or leave. Copy or print your internal estimate before closing the page. We do not send calculator entries to a server.
What do I need to use the quoting kit?
Open the workbook in Excel or LibreOffice, or import it into Google Sheets and check the formatting after import. The printable guides open in a browser. No macros or paid plugins are needed.
