Pricing Drivers

What Determines Cleaning Cost

Building Size

Square footage is the primary cost driver. More space means more labor hours, supplies, and time on-site each visit.

Cleaning Frequency

Daily service costs more per month than weekly, but typically costs less per visit. Frequency should match occupancy and use.

Facility Type

Medical offices and schools require stricter protocols and specialized products. Higher compliance = higher cost per sq ft.

Occupancy Levels

More people means more traffic, more restroom use, and more surface contact. High-occupancy facilities require more time per visit.

Specialty Services

Carpet extraction, floor strip-and-wax, post-construction cleanup, and window cleaning are priced separately from base janitorial.

The Real Risk

Cheap cleaning isn't cheap.

When you hire on price alone, the real costs show up elsewhere — in productivity, health, liability, and reputation. The lowest bid almost always costs more in the long run.

Re-cleaning fees

When the job isn't done right, someone pays to have it redone. Usually you.

Health & absenteeism costs

Poor sanitation spreads illness through your workforce. Sick days are expensive.

Reputation damage

Clients and visitors notice a dirty facility. First impressions stick.

Liability exposure

Slips, mold, and contamination in a poorly maintained facility aren't theoretical risks.
