House cleaning price calculator

By (pen name) · Last updated · How we compare

Estimates only. This calculator runs in your browser; nothing you enter is sent or stored. It has no built-in prices. You supply your own rates, and we only show public reference figures with their source.

Enter the home details and your own rates. The calculator turns them into estimated labor hours, a price range and recurring-visit prices.

Your coefficients, not a market quote. Square footage, rooms, minutes per room, hourly or per-square-foot price, multipliers, add-on prices, and discounts start blank. Those numbers are yours. This page does not fill in a typical cleaning price or a typical job time, because no citable public source for those customer prices was used.

Sourced labor reference, separate from the quote. The wage box lower on the page is a US occupational wage from BLS. It is what employees are paid, not what a customer pays for a clean, and it is not entered into the estimate unless you choose the reference button on the other calculator or type a number yourself. This calculator has no such button. Nothing here is a recommended price.

US national occupational employee wages across industries (OEWS). Not a customer cleaning price, not a Canadian wage, and not a loaded employer labor cost. News release: 10:00 a.m. ET (7:00 a.m. PDT), May 15, 2026. Reference period is May 2025. This is what workers are paid, before payroll taxes and insurance. It is not what customers pay for a cleaning. To turn wages into a price, use the cleaning business pricing calculator.
