Get a price
Bedrooms, bathrooms, how often. Notice the per-visit price going up as the gap gets longer, because a month of dust is more work than a week of it. That is how you price it on the pad and almost no cleaning website shows it.
An instant price from bedrooms and frequency, recurring booking on a round day, access and key details captured once, visit reports, and customers skipping their own visits instead of texting you. There is a working one you can try.
I built one for a cleaning business that does not exist so you can click it rather than read about it. The estimator, the booking, the visit report and the skip panel all work.
Bedrooms, bathrooms, how often. Notice the per-visit price going up as the gap gets longer, because a month of dust is more work than a week of it. That is how you price it on the pad and almost no cleaning website shows it.
Days your round already covers, the same cleaner every visit, and the key safe code, parking, pet and alarm all captured on the job sheet rather than sorted out by text.
Go to the manage section and skip one. That is the single biggest admin drain in the trade, handled by the customer, with nothing charged and the round rearranged.
It is a demonstration, so the business, the rate, the team and the reviews are made up and the phone numbers are the fictional ranges Ofcom reserves for exactly this. Nothing on it sends a message or takes a payment, and there is no card field anywhere in the page.
A householder asks what it costs an hour. A facilities manager asks what it costs per square metre a year, wants a schedule of work to put in the tender, and mostly wants to know whether the cleaners actually turned up. So there is a second demo built for that buyer instead.
Floor area, how the building is used, washrooms, how often you attend and at what time of day. Out comes the cost per square metre per year, which is the figure a tender is scored on and which almost nobody in the trade puts on a website.
Tick the areas a building has and get a task by task specification with a frequency against every line. That one document settles nearly every argument there has ever been between a building and its cleaner.
A monthly audit score for every area, and a sign in log the client can read for themselves without ringing you. Those are the two questions that lose contracts.
Same rules as the other one. Marlbrook Facilities Services does not exist, the accreditations and contracts on it are illustrative, nothing is sent or charged, and there is no card field anywhere in the page.
Most cleaning websites are a paragraph about being reliable and a form. These are the parts that win the job and then save you the admin.
Cleaning is sold by the hour and the hours come from the house, so the whole quote is arithmetic a web page can do. This is the single biggest difference between a cleaning site that generates work and one that just sits there.
Monthly costs more per visit than weekly for the same house. Every cleaner knows that and almost no website reflects it, which is how people end up quoting a monthly at a weekly rate and losing money on it all year.
The round is the business. New bookings go onto days you are already in that area with the same cleaner, so you are not driving across town for one house and the diesel does not eat the margin.
The things currently sorted out by text three times a week, on the job sheet where they belong. Your cleaner opens the round on their phone and knows the code, the parking and that there is a dog in the kitchen.
Going away, decorating, skint this month. They skip it themselves from a link, nothing is charged, the round rearranges and nobody has to be rung. This is the admin that quietly eats an evening a week.
The customer sees what was done, in and out times and any notes back to them. The card is charged the day after, receipt emailed. No chasing, no cash on the worktop, and the oldest complaint about cleaners answered in a text message.
There is a seventh, and for most cleaning businesses it matters as much as the rest: the site recruits while you are out on the round. Every cleaning business is short of cleaners, and an always-on advert with a one minute form beats a Facebook post written in a panic when somebody leaves.
Straight answers, and every quote confirmed in writing before any work starts.
What you do, what is included and what is not, your areas, your prices and a contact form, built properly and fast on a phone. My published starting price for a small business site is £245 and you own it. All the prices are published here.
Right if you are happy quoting by phone and the diary lives in a notebook that works.
Everything in the demo: the estimator, recurring booking on a round day, access details, visit reports, customer-managed skips and card on file.
The £950 is a one-off and you own the site. The £60 a year is the renewal invoice for the domain and hosting, and you can say no to it without the site stopping being yours.
One price, paid once. The site is yours at the end of it.
A .co.uk domain registered in your name, included. The site is yours from the day it goes live, with no deposit, no instalments and nothing to sign up to. Hosting and SSL are covered for the first twelve months.
One invoice a year, not a subscription. It renews the domain, the hosting and the SSL certificate. Say no to it and the site and the domain are still yours to take anywhere.
The honest bit. There is no monthly payment and no direct debit to set up. You buy the site once and own it, instead of paying the same amount every year forever and owning nothing at the end of it. The domain is in your name from day one, so if you ever want to leave you take everything with you.
Two things carry a running cost and I will not hide them. Hosting, your domain, the SSL certificate, updates and backups are covered by the care plan at £60 a year, or £270 a year for the full care plan, and both are optional. Text messages are metered at a few pence each, billed at what they cost me, and for a cleaning round they pay for themselves the first time a skip does not turn into a wasted journey. Card payments run through your own Stripe account, so their fee is between you and Stripe and I never touch the money.
They are, which is why the estimator gives a guide and says so, and why the demo tells the customer their cleaner will confirm the hours on the first visit and adjust once either way. What you are really choosing between is a rough number now or a phone call you might not get. The businesses that publish tend to get fewer enquiries and win more of them.
No, and that is the point. It only offers days your round already covers in that area, so new customers slot into a run you are doing anyway rather than creating a special trip.
The codes belong in the job sheet, not on a public page, and only the office and the cleaner on that round can see them. It is the same information currently sitting in a WhatsApp thread on somebody's unlocked phone, so this is usually a step up rather than a new risk. I will walk you through exactly where it lives before you commit.
You set the rules. The demo allows two free skips a year and asks for a week's notice beyond that. You can require notice on all of them, or cap them. The alternative is what happens now: they text you at eight in the morning and you absorb it anyway.
No. The demo offers card on file or a monthly invoice, and plenty of rounds run on bank transfer. Card on file is what stops the end-of-month chase, but it is your call.
Yes. The domain is registered in your name and the site is yours. If you ever want to move it elsewhere I hand over the files and help with the transfer. Your customer list, round days and access details are yours too, and I will export them whenever you ask.
Five minutes on your phone will tell you more than I can. If it looks useful I will build you your own, with your rate, your round and your team on it. If it does not, no harm done.
