Sound Familiar?
Cleaning businesses run on thin margins.
Labor, supplies, turnover, and compliance costs make cleaning one of the most financially complex service businesses. Here's how we make it manageable.
“I have no idea which clients or routes are actually profitable”
We build route-level and client-level P&Ls that factor in travel time, supplies, and labor so you can price every account to hit your margin target.
“My cleaners are a mix of employees and 1099 contractors — it's a compliance risk”
We properly classify your workforce, manage payroll for W-2 employees, and issue 1099s for contractors — keeping you compliant and audit-ready.
“Supply costs are eating my margins and I can't track where they go”
We allocate supply purchases to job types and clients so you can see true cost of service and adjust pricing for supply-intensive accounts.
“Monthly recurring clients are great but cash flow is still unpredictable”
We map your recurring revenue against your cost cycles so you have clear visibility into where cash is tight and when you can invest in growth.
“I want to add commercial accounts but don't know if I can afford the equipment”
We model the true ROI of equipment investments, commercial hires, and new service lines before you commit so you expand profitably.
“Turnover is killing me and I can't figure out my real cost per cleaner”
We track fully loaded labor costs including training, uniforms, supplies, and overtime so you know your true cost per productive hour.
Services
Built for cleaning businesses from solo to franchise.
Whether you run a one-person operation or a multi-crew commercial cleaning company, we have the systems to give you clarity and control.
Why Choose Us
We help cleaning companies grow profitably — not just grow.
We understand service-based margins
Cleaning is a high-volume, labor-intensive business. We track the metrics that matter — cost per hour, revenue per route, supply margin — not just top-line revenue.
Workforce compliance built in
Misclassifying cleaners as contractors is one of the biggest risks in this industry. We keep you on the right side of labor law from day one.
Pricing clarity that drives growth
Most cleaning companies underprice commercial accounts. We show you the true cost of each account type so you can raise rates with confidence.
Technology-forward
We integrate with Jobber, Housecall Pro, and most field service management platforms to automate your bookkeeping and reduce manual work.
FAQs
Questions we hear from cleaning company owners.
How do you track profitability by route or client?
We allocate labor hours, travel time, and supply costs to each client and route so you can rank accounts by profitability and make decisions about pricing, staffing, or dropping unprofitable clients.
Should my cleaners be W-2 employees or 1099 contractors?
This depends on how they work, but most cleaning companies using regular cleaners with set schedules need W-2 employees. We help you get this right to avoid IRS penalties and state labor audits.
How do you handle supply tracking across multiple teams?
We set up supply purchasing by job type and team, giving you cost-per-clean data that lets you benchmark efficiency and identify waste.
Can you integrate with my scheduling software?
Yes. We work with Jobber, HouseCall Pro, ZenMaid, and most field service management platforms to automate invoice posting and reduce double entry.
What about sales tax on cleaning services?
Cleaning services are taxable in many states but exempt in others, and the rules vary for residential vs commercial. We ensure you collect and remit correctly in every state you operate.
How do I know when I can afford to hire another cleaner?
We model your true cost per additional hire — wages, insurance, supplies, equipment — against your pipeline revenue so you hire at exactly the right time.
