How the cleaning bid calculation works
The calculator converts weekly visits into an average month using 4.33 weeks, multiplies visits by labor hours, and applies wage plus payroll burden. Supplies and overhead are then added before the target profit margin is calculated.
Margin is different from markup
The recommended selling price divides estimated cost by one minus the target margin. If monthly cost is $4,000 and the target margin is 20%, the recommended price is $5,000—not $4,800. Use your actual costs and inspect the facility before submitting any quote.
