Cleaning Business Pricing Mistakes You Can’t Afford to Make
The 3 Pricing Mistakes That Keep Cleaning Businesses Stuck and Broke
💸 Still winging your prices?

If you’re still figuring out how to price your cleaning services — especially if you’re new — let’s clear something up right now:
Your pricing isn’t “just a number.”
It’s your boundary. Your paycheck. Your positioning.
And if you mess it up early? It gets real hard to fix later.
So let’s talk about the 3 biggest pricing mistakes I see new (and not-so-new) cleaners making — and how to fix them before they burn you out.
1️⃣ Underpricing Because You’re “Just Starting Out”
This one’s personal — because I’ve been there.
You’re new. You want clients. You feel weird charging “too much.”
So you tell yourself:
“I’ll just start low, get a few clients, and raise my prices later.”
Except that never happens.
Instead, you attract people who expect the world for $80.
They push your boundaries, flake on payments, and drain your energy.
And when you do try to raise your rates? They ghost you.
💥 Hard truth: Being new doesn’t mean being cheap.
Your time is valuable now. Not “someday.”
2️⃣ Guessing Your Rates Instead of Using a System
Let me guess — you’re charging by the hour… or worse, throwing out numbers and hoping they stick.
And every time someone says, “That’s too expensive,” you flinch a little and start second-guessing yourself.
You don’t need to guess.
You need a system — one that backs your pricing with real logic, structure, and confidence.
That’s why I made the Flat Rate Pricing Cheat Sheet — to help you quote jobs the right way, without anxiety, guesswork, or chasing what “feels fair.”
Because confidence doesn’t come from pulling numbers out of thin air.
It comes from knowing exactly why you charge what you charge — and standing by it.
3️⃣ Forgetting to Include Expenses, Taxes, and Profit
I see this all the time. You charge what feels “reasonable,” but you forget to include:
Travel time
Gas
Supplies
Wear and tear on your body and tools
Apps, taxes, insurance
And actual profit — not just what’s left over
And suddenly you’re three months in, working your tail off, and still barely covering bills
You didn’t start this business to scrape by.
You started it to run a real business — and that means your pricing has to support you.

Final Word:
If you’ve been feeling stuck, second-guessing every quote, or wondering why this business is starting to feel heavy — check your pricing.
This isn’t about working harder.
It’s about getting smarter.
And that starts with knowing your worth — and backing it with a system that works.
