What a cleaning estimate should say
A cleaning estimate sets the rhythm of the service. It tells the client the rooms, the task list, how often you come and who supplies what.
| Field | Why it matters before the first visit |
|---|---|
| Frequency and hours | Weekly, biweekly or nightly. Price any after-hours access. |
| Task list per room | It prevents "I thought that was included". |
| Supplies and equipment | Say who buys them, and who buys the paper goods. |
| First deep clean | Price the first visit apart. |
| Access and keys | Who opens the door, and the alarm code process. |
| Notice period | How either side ends a recurring plan. |
Estimate, quote or bid: Say what your paper means. Write "fixed price", or say how the price can change. Ask your state board or a lawyer what binds you. See estimate vs invoice.

Rules to check before you send a cleaning estimate
Add tax in Texas
A Texas client pays tax on building cleaning, in a home or an office, with an exception for a self-employed housekeeper employed by the household. Show the tax before signing. Texas Comptroller 94-111
Taxable for a business client too
Texas names office, warehouse, garage and restaurant cleaning in the same rule, so a commercial estimate there carries the tax line as well. Texas Comptroller 94-111
Training claims
BLS says that janitors and building cleaners typically do not need formal education to enter the occupation. Say "certified" on an estimate only when you can name the certificate. BLS
Cleaning estimate questions
How do I price a house that I have not seen?
Give a range by bedrooms and bathrooms, and confirm after a walk-through. Mark it clearly as an estimate.
How do I quote a commercial job?
Price per visit, then multiply by visits per month. Set the deposit to empty when you bill monthly in advance.
Should I show a price per square foot?
Use it if your client compares bids that way.
What if the client wants supplies included?
Add a supplies line, or write that you bring standard products. Say who pays for special products.
