Question 1

How much should I charge for window cleaning?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the surface and the access. As a starting point for window cleaning: window cleaning (in & out) at $8/window · $150 min, window cleaning (exterior only) at $5/window · $125 min, glass pane cleaning (french/grids) at $2/pane · $125 min. Measure the job, apply your per-line minimum, then add surcharges like the two-story access bump. The calculator above gives you a ballpark; your real quote should be measured off the actual property.

Question 2

How does this window cleaning calculator work?

Accepted Answer

Pick a service, enter the measurement (window), and toggle the surcharges that apply. It multiplies your rate by the measurement, floors it at the per-line minimum, then adds the surcharges. It is an illustrative estimate, not a firm quote.

Question 3

Is this the price my customer pays?

Accepted Answer

No. This is a ballpark for what to charge. In Hoseworks the estimate is measured off the actual property (square footage, window count, or linear feet), priced to the cent on your own rate card, and sent as a real quote the customer can approve and pay online.

Question 4

Can I set my own rates in Hoseworks?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The rates here are a sample starter card. In Hoseworks you set your own per-trade rate card once and every quote prices off it identically in the office and the field, with your surcharges and minimums built in.
