Example: one-time deep cleaning quote
A two-bedroom, two-bathroom home usually needs a quote that separates the core clean from optional work. This makes the scope easy to approve.
Deep cleaning labor$210.00
Inside refrigerator$30.00
Inside oven$35.00
Supplies fee$15.00
Estimated total$290.00
Notes to include with the quote
- State the property size, room count, and agreed service date.
- List what is included: dusting, floors, bathrooms, kitchen, and trash removal.
- Show optional extras separately so the client can choose them.
- Set a quote expiry date and explain when payment is due.
Why this format works
Clients can see the total, but they can also see why it costs that amount. A detailed quote protects the cleaner from scope changes and helps the client compare options fairly.
Frequently asked questions
Should a cleaning quote include hourly rates?
It can, but a fixed total with clear line items is usually easier for a client to approve. Keep hourly pricing for work where the scope is genuinely uncertain.
How long should a cleaning quote stay valid?
Seven to fourteen days is common. A short validity period helps protect you if labor costs or the job scope changes.
What should be excluded from a cleaning quote?
State any exclusions clearly, such as exterior windows, heavy clutter removal, biohazard cleanup, or work above normal reach height.
