7.1 Estimate Pricing Worksheet The Estimate Pricing Worksheet is a guide to assist you with the pricing during the in home estimate. Your prices must be adjusted to your local conditions and economy. A price analysis must be done for all local competition in order to set your hourly price. The square footage base price does include the kitchen, as we assume that all homes will have at least one kitchen. You will customize the sheet, based on your local market, and the market research you have conducted in the Right Start process. The “Other” field is to reflect the unique features of each home that make cleaning more difficult. It includes such things as: density of furnishings, kinds of furnishings, disproportionate room sizes, condition of surfaces, customer requests beyond standard service, general care and condition of the home, presence of collectibles or antiques, environment (dust/mold), clutter, excessive pet hair, etc. One-time cleanings and initial cleans are priced by the hour. Once the home has been brought up to the home owner’s standard, ongoing cleanings are priced at a flat rate. You will find it necessary to price weekly and monthly cleans at a percent or dollar above monthly cleans. A recommended range increase is ten dollars from weekly to alternate weekly and twenty five from weekly to monthly. This range may vary so consult your RSM. Use of the estimate pricing worksheet is the only control you have to make sure you are accurately pricing cleans. You can evaluate the working rate to see if the home was priced accurately or the teams are not working efficiently.
