One of the first things people often want to know when they call us is, “How much does window cleaning cost?”
We value trust and transparency, which is why we always like to share the factors that contribute to the final price our company will charge for services.
Consider the basics of window cleaning cost
First, we consider the basic onsite costs to provide the service. This includes necessities like labor, soap, squeegee rubber, filters, insurance, and fuel for transportation. We also incur expenses such as vehicle maintenance, other equipment, and small tools—as well as expenses like supporting our office staff, phones, internet, and maintaining important software. Finally, we add on a profit that allows the company to have financial health and thrive long-term.
Let’s unpack some of these costs in detail
When it comes to labor costs, we have never paid minimum wage—we hire the very best and start wages at $25 and go up to $35 and beyond with paid holidays, sick pay, time off, 401K, and health insurance. General Liability insurance and Workers’ Compensation insurance are both based on payroll. It is very important to us that our employees are well taken care of, both for the sake of our company and also to ensure that the work we deliver is of the highest caliber.
So how much do we charge?
Now I bet you’re asking, “Yes, but how can you charge so much when so-and-so only charges x?”
The short answer is: we have been in business for 20 years with healthy finances, and intend to be here for the long haul. Our priority is to hire excellent people and compensate them well, to ensure that they are at the top of their game and enjoy where they work, which translates into a high quality of service for our customers. I am the first to admit how expensive it is to safely operate and execute a window cleaning, specifically when we value top-tier employees who perform top-tier work. We pay well, so you get the very best, and we charge accordingly so that we are financially healthy.
