House Cleaning pricing spreadsheet for repeatable job costing

What a cleaning pricing spreadsheet should calculate

A useful pricing spreadsheet should do more than multiply hours by an hourly rate. It should give the business a repeatable way to recover cleaner wages, employer on-costs, supplies, laundry, travel, payment fees and fixed overhead before applying a target retained margin.

That matters because two jobs with the same customer-facing price can have very different economics. A recurring maintenance clean may be predictable while a first-time deep clean can consume substantially more labour and supplies.

Why a reusable workbook is useful

A browser calculator is ideal for checking one job. A workbook becomes more valuable when the same pricing method needs to be reused across multiple quotes, service types and planning scenarios. It can also help the owner review whether assumptions such as expected cleaner-hours and jobs per month are realistic.

Use the same method on every quote

1. Estimate paid cleaner-hours.
2. Apply the true loaded labour cost.
3. Add supplies, laundry and equipment wear.
4. Include travel and vehicle cost where relevant.
5. Allocate a realistic share of overhead.
6. Protect a minimum viable charge.
7. Apply the target margin and tax treatment.
