What does Quotewise do? It turns your estimated cleaning hours and business costs into a suggested price, then creates customer-ready text. You make the final decision.
01
Start with the work
For one-time work, pick Standard, Deep or Move-out. For recurring residential service, choose Standard or Deep for the first visit, then Standard maintenance. Enter room counts and combined cleaning areas and review what is included.
For other work, choose manual labor planning and add assessed custom services. Have ready: the agreed scope and your own labor estimates.
02
Add what it costs you
Review the base person-hours linked from step 01. Cleaner count changes estimated time on site, not total labor cost. Enter labor cost and target margin; expand visit expenses and price protection as needed. Enter your verified sales tax rate and taxable basis.
Have ready: your actual costs. The tool does not guess them for you.
03
Add extra services
Add separately priced work with a quantity, person-hours per unit and other direct cost per unit. Use a service-specific hourly cost if needed; otherwise the visit rate applies. For recurring quotes, choose whether each extra repeats.
Skip this step when there are no extras. Avoid counting work already included in the base scope twice.
04
Prepare the customer quote
Optionally add company and customer contacts, a quote reference, validity and customer notes. Review the suggested price and profit, confirm your final before-tax price, then download the PDF or text with separately stated entered tax.
You send the estimate yourself. Editing the job requires a new confirmation before export.
ONE IMPORTANT DETAIL
People × hours. Not people × price.
Two cleaners each working three hours means six person-hours. Enter area allowances totaling 6 person-hours and a crew size of 2. The calculator estimates about three hours on site.
Base labor does not include extras. If an oven needs another half-hour, add it as an extra once.
2 cleaners×3 hours each
6 person-hours
About 3 hours on site

Keep the scope in sight
If the home has special contamination or the job falls outside residential cleaning, arrange a manual assessment. Use manual labor planning and add the assessed services and costs.
What to include in a house cleaning estimate
Describe the property, selected cleaning services, quantities, agreed exclusions and price per visit. Add your company details, customer, quote number and validity period when useful. Show verified sales tax separately. For recurring work, distinguish the first clean from ongoing maintenance visits.
