Recurring janitorial

Commercial cleaning bid calculator

Prices a recurring janitorial contract from square footage and how often you clean. The bid updates as you type, with the whole cost stack showing.

Built for: Cleaning companies bidding offices, medical suites, schools, and warehouses.

Open the calculator

Example: an office of 10,000 square feet cleaned five times a week comes out to 2.9 hours per visit, $131 per visit, and $2,828 a month.

You enter
Facility type, cleanable square footage, visits per week, burdened labor rate, supplies, overhead, and margin.
You get
Hours per visit, price per visit, monthly and annual contract value, and price per square foot.
Printed on the page
Seven production rates from 2,000 to 6,000 sq ft per hour, and the margin math worked on a real example.

Construction cleanup

Post-construction cleaning pricing calculator

Builds the bid from labor hours instead of a square-foot rate pulled from the air. Phase and debris level scale the crew hours.

Built for: Cleaners bidding builder and general-contractor work, where the same square footage can take three times the hours.

Open the calculator

Example: a 3,000 square foot residential final clean with average debris comes out to 17.1 crew hours, a bid of $857, and $0.29 per square foot.

You enter
Square footage, project type, cleaning phase, debris level, crew size, labor rate, supplies, overhead, and margin.
You get
Crew hours, crew days, a flat bid price, and a price per square foot to sanity-check the number.
Printed on the page
Three production rates, four phase multipliers, and three debris multipliers. Nothing hidden.

Marketing self-check

Cleaning business lead calculator

Six questions about your website, reviews, ranking, and response time. It scores how much of your demand you actually catch and puts a number on the rest.

Built for: Owners who can do the work but cannot tell where the calls are going.

Open the calculator

Example: a business closing 6 customers a month at $2,400 a job, with fewer than 10 reviews, scores 15% on lead capture and is missing about 9 customers a month, with Google reviews as the weakest link.

You answer
Six questions on your website, Google Business Profile, reviews, rating, local rank, and response time, plus your monthly customer count and average job value.
You get
A capture score, customers missed per month, what they cost per year, and which fix comes first.
Printed on the page
All six factor scores and the benchmarks behind them, with the upside capped so the number stays honest.

What free means here

A free tool usually means an email gate and a phone call two days later. These are neither.

The rules

  • No signup, no email gate, no locked PDF at the end.
  • The math runs in your browser. Nothing you type is sent or stored.
  • Every model is printed on its page: rates, multipliers, and factor scores.
  • You can change any default, so your numbers beat ours.
  • Link them and share them. There is no wall to strand anyone behind.

The fine print, out loud

  • The results are starting points, not quotes. Walk the site before the number leaves your hands.
  • All three serve the cleaning trade today. Another trade gets one when its model is solid enough to print.
  • Pillar makes money when you run your business on it, not on these pages.

Questions about the calculators

Are these calculators really free?

Yes. No signup, no email, no locked version. They work whether or not you ever look at the rest of this site.

What is the catch?

Our name is on the page, and we would like you to remember it when you go looking for software. That is the whole arrangement.

Do you see or store the numbers I enter?

No. The math runs in your browser, nothing you type is sent to us, and nothing is kept when you close the tab.

Why are they all cleaning calculators?

Cleaning bids are won and lost on arithmetic: square footage, production rates, frequency. That made it the right trade to build first, and another trade gets one when its model is solid enough to print.

How accurate are the results?

They are starting points built from published models, not quotes. Every constant is printed and adjustable, so check the defaults against your own last few jobs.

Can I link to these or embed them?

Link away. Each calculator has its own page with nothing in front of it, so nobody you send there gets stranded. There is no embed version.

Do I need Pillar to use them?

No, every tool stands on its own. If you want the number to become a scheduled job, a signed estimate, and a paid invoice, Pillar does that free for one person.
