Areas to clean
Add-ons (optional)
These figures are estimates to help you quote a job. Adjust the per-square-foot rates to match your local market, labor and supply costs, cleaning frequency, and how you price.
It is a free tool that turns the areas you plan to clean and their square footage into a fast, itemized price for the job. Instead of guessing or reworking a spreadsheet on every bid, you enter each area, adjust the rate to match your pricing, and see the subtotal, a suggested range, and a recommended estimate right away. It is built for offices, retail, and janitorial work, where jobs are usually priced by the square foot.
Add one row per area or service (standard office cleaning, deep cleaning, carpet cleaning, floor care, and so on), enter the area in square feet, and set the rate per square foot. The tool fills in a typical starting rate for each service, which you can change to match your market. Tick any add-ons such as supplies or rush service, set your minimum service charge, and your estimate updates instantly.
Commercial and janitorial work is usually priced by the square foot, sometimes by the hour for small or unusual jobs, and almost always with a minimum charge. Recurring contracts cost less per square foot than a one-time deep clean, because the space stays maintained and each visit is faster. Facility type, traffic, restroom count, and how often you clean all move the number, which is why every rate in this calculator is editable. For a deeper look at what to charge, see our guide on how to price commercial cleaning jobs. When the job is booked, bill it with our free cleaning invoice template.
These are common starting points in the United States. Treat them as a baseline and adjust for your area, facility type, and frequency.
| Service | Typical rate |
|---|---|
| Standard office cleaning | $0.08 to $0.20 / sq ft |
| Deep cleaning | $0.15 to $0.25 / sq ft |
| Carpet cleaning | $0.15 to $0.30 / sq ft |
| Floor strip and wax | $0.30 to $0.50 / sq ft |
| Post-construction cleanup | $0.30 to $0.50 / sq ft |
| Minimum service charge | $100 to $200 |
Walk the space and measure the real square footage rather than eyeballing it, price recurring contracts lower per visit than one-time jobs, and keep a firm minimum for small offices. Put the scope, schedule, and what each visit includes in writing on a signed estimate before you start. When the job is agreed, our free cleaning quote template and estimate and quote generator turn the same line items into a professional document you can send in seconds.
