Frequently Asked Questions

How much do supplies cost per cleaning job?

Typically 4–8% of revenue — $6–12 on a $150 clean — covering chemicals, cloths, liners, and equipment wear. If you are above 10%, audit product dilution and microfiber laundering practices.

Should I bill supplies separately or build them into my price?

Build them in. Line-item supply charges invite nickel-and-dime objections. The exception is client-requested specialty products (eco-only lines, specific disinfectants), which warrant a stated surcharge.

How do I cut supply costs without hurting quality?

Buy concentrates and dilute with a measuring system, standardize on 6–8 core products instead of 20, and launder microfiber in-house — reusables cost a fraction of disposables per job.
