The problem

Most new owners guess their prices. You don't have to.

It's common to start out by undercharging, picking a number that feels right, or copying a competitor without knowing your own costs. A price that isn't built on your labor, supplies, travel, and margin can keep you busy without paying you properly.

A clear way to estimate a price

The calculator turns the size of the home, the type of clean, and your own costs into a suggested price, and shows every step of the math.

Your costs and margin, visible

See your estimated hours, what the visit costs you, and the profit left over, so you know what a discount actually takes out of your pocket.

Paperwork to start professionally

The kit adds a quote spreadsheet, a service agreement template, cleaning checklists, and client emails that you edit to fit your business.

How it works

Three steps from guesswork to a quote you can explain

  1. Estimate a price

    Enter the bedrooms, bathrooms, size, type of clean, and how often. The free calculator suggests a price and a sensible range.

  2. Review your costs and margin

    Swap the starter defaults for your real labor rate, supply cost, and travel time. Check that the profit per visit is one you can live on.

  3. Quote and onboard with templates

    Use the kit's documents to send the quote, agree the terms in writing, and run each clean from a checklist.

The Pricing & Launch Kit

The spreadsheet and the paperwork, in one download

The kit is for owners who want the calculator as a spreadsheet they can keep and adapt, plus the documents a new client relationship usually needs. Everything is a template that you customize.

  • Quote calculator spreadsheet: the pricing model in a file you own and can change.
  • Service agreement template: a plain-language starting point to adapt and have reviewed for your location.
  • Cleaning checklists: for standard, deep, and move-out cleans.
  • Client email templates: for quotes, confirmations, and follow-ups.

Templates are not legal, tax, or financial advice. The kit does not guarantee bookings or profit.

A curated toolkit, not an industry guru

Spotless Margin doesn't claim to have run a cleaning company, and there are no invented success stories on this site. We organize a straightforward cost-plus pricing method and practical document templates into tools a new owner can use right away.

The calculator shows its formulas so you can judge them yourself. Where a number is a starting assumption, the page says so. You know your area, your clients, and your costs, and the tools are built to be adjusted to them.
