Cleaning Estimate Tips
Do a walkthrough before quoting — square footage alone doesn't capture clutter or condition.
Note any exclusions (e.g., "Does not include exterior windows or garage").
Offer add-on pricing for extras like inside-oven cleaning, refrigerator interior, or laundry.
Specify whether your estimate includes cleaning supplies or if the customer provides them.
What to Include in a
Cleaning Estimate
Scope of Work
Clearly describe every task to be performed. Be specific about the cleaning work, areas affected, and expected outcomes.

List the specific brands, models, and quantities of materials you plan to use. This prevents disputes later.
Timeline & Schedule
Provide a realistic start date and estimated completion date. Note any factors that could affect the timeline.
Price Breakdown
Separate labor from materials. Include permit fees, disposal costs, and any subcontractor charges as individual line items.
Terms & Conditions
Include payment schedule, change order process, warranty terms, and cancellation policy.
Exclusions
Clearly state what is NOT included in the estimate to prevent misunderstandings.
Frequently Asked
Questions
Should I do a walkthrough before giving a cleaning estimate?
Yes, especially for first-time deep cleans and move-out cleans. Photos can work for recurring standard cleaning estimates, but walkthroughs are more accurate and help build trust.
How do I estimate move-out cleaning costs?
Base your estimate on the number of bedrooms/bathrooms, kitchen condition, and any special requests. Add premiums for heavy buildup, pet homes, or tight timelines. Always note what's included and excluded.
Should cleaning estimates include supply costs?
Most professional cleaning services include supplies in their pricing. Note this in your estimate so customers know they don't need to provide anything.
