What affects the price

  • Home size — more square footage, bedrooms, and bathrooms mean more time.
  • Cleaning type — deep and move-out cleans take far longer than standard upkeep.
  • Frequency — recurring weekly/biweekly visits cost less per visit than one-offs.
  • Condition & add-ons — heavily soiled homes and extras (oven, fridge, windows) add cost.
  • Location — labor rates vary by region.
  • Supplies — whether the cleaner brings products and equipment.

How pros price it

Cleaning pros price per visit, per hour, or per square foot — with recurring discounts.

Flat per-visit pricing is easiest for clients; per-hour ($25–$75/cleaner) suits variable jobs; per-sq-ft keeps large homes consistent. Deep and move-out cleans are quoted higher, and recurring plans trade a lower per-visit rate for steady, predictable revenue.

Recurring visits and service plans are where cleaning businesses win — the schedule and the billing repeat themselves. ServicePros Hub handles recurring cleaning plans, invoicing, and card payments in one app.

How much should I charge for house cleaning?

Most cleaners charge $25–$75 per hour per cleaner, or a flat per-visit rate ($120–$280). Per-square-foot pricing ($0.10–$0.17 standard) keeps large homes consistent. Charge more for deep and move-out cleans.

How much more is a deep clean?

Deep cleaning typically costs $180–$280 for a 3-bed/2-bath home versus $135–$180 for a standard clean, because it covers baseboards, inside appliances, and detailed scrubbing.

How do I keep cleaning revenue steady?

Recurring plans. Weekly or biweekly visits lower the per-visit price for the client and give you predictable income. ServicePros Hub automates recurring cleaning schedules and billing.
