Get an instant cleaning quote.
You messaged three cleaners last Tuesday. One replied that night with a real price, one answered two days later, and one never wrote back. You booked the one who answered first, because by the time the others got around to it you had already moved on. That is the whole game in home services now, and it has a name: speed to lead.
The fastest cleaning businesses now send a real price by text within minutes of you asking. Not a vague "we will get back to you," and not a generic rate card, but an actual number for your actual home. This page explains how that works, and exactly what to include when you ask so the quote you get back is accurate.
What to include when you ask
- Size of your home. Square footage if you know it, otherwise the number of bedrooms and bathrooms. This is the single biggest driver of the price.
- What kind of clean. A routine standard clean, a one time deep clean, or a move out clean are very different jobs. Say which one you want.
- How long since the last clean. A home cleaned last week prices very differently from one that has not been touched in months.
- Pets. Cats, dogs, and the hair they leave behind all add time, so mention them.
- One time or recurring. Recurring plans cost less per visit. If you want weekly or biweekly, say so, because it usually lowers the price.
- Any add ons. Inside the oven, inside the fridge, interior windows, or laundry are often extras. List them now so nothing surprises you later.
How an instant quote actually works
You ask
You send your details through the cleaner's quote link or by text. It takes you about a minute.
A price is drafted
Their system prices the job from the cleaner's own rates and writes the quote in their voice. No invented numbers.
You get it by text
The cleaner approves the price, and a clear quote lands in your messages in minutes, while you are still deciding.
Why fast wins, for both of you
- You can compare while it is fresh. A real number in minutes lets you weigh two or three cleaners the same evening instead of waiting all week.
- A fast, specific quote signals a real business. A cleaner who answers quickly and prices clearly is usually the one who shows up on time too.
- No phone tag. You get the price in writing, so there is no chasing, no voicemail, and no "we will call you back."
