Quoting for a new cleaning client
The first visit is usually a walk-round. Use it to agree what "a clean" means in that home: which rooms, whether you change beds, whether you do ironing, and how long it really takes. Put those details in the quote so you both have the same picture.
Price regular cleans per visit or per hour, and say how often you'll come. A line like "Weekly clean, 3 hours (per visit)" with the quantity set to 4 shows a monthly cost, which is what most clients want to know.
Deep cleans and first cleans
A home that hasn't been cleaned professionally for a while often needs a longer first visit. Quote it separately as a "First deep clean" so the client understands why it costs more than the regular visits that follow.
For end of tenancy cleans, list what's included: kitchen appliances, bathrooms, skirting boards, inside cupboards, windows. Landlords and agents check against an inventory, so a clear list helps you avoid callbacks.
Set your terms early
The quote is the right place for the rules you'll want later:
- How much notice the client must give to cancel a visit, and what you charge if they don't.
- Whether the client provides products and equipment.
- How keys or entry codes are handled.
- When you'll invoice and when payment is due.
Validity
Give the quote an end date so the price doesn't stand forever. This template defaults to 30 days.
Frequently asked questions
Should I quote per hour or per visit?
Per visit is simpler for clients and rewards you for working efficiently. Per hour suits one-off jobs where the size is hard to judge.
Can I quote for a regular office clean?
Yes. Describe the areas, frequency and times, and set the quantity to the number of visits per month.
What should a cleaning cancellation policy say?
Usually how much notice is needed, often 24 or 48 hours, and what percentage of the visit you'll charge for late cancellations or no access.
