House Cleaning Quote Template: What to Include

Your quote is often the first real impression a customer gets of your cleaning business. A vague text message loses to a clean, professional estimate almost every time. Use this checklist to make sure every quote you send looks credible and gets accepted.

Business & customer details

• Your business name and logo.
• Your contact information.
• The customer’s name and service address.
• A unique quote number and the date.

A clear description of the service

Spell out exactly what is included so there are no surprises. Note the type of clean (standard, deep, or move-out), the size of the home, and any special instructions. A short, friendly written summary reassures the customer they are hiring a professional.

Itemized line items and total

• Each service and add-on listed separately with its price.
• Add-ons such as inside the fridge, inside the oven, laundry, or a pet surcharge.
• A clearly displayed total.
• An estimated duration for the visit.

Terms and validity

• How long the quote is valid (30 days is common).
• A note about applicable taxes.
• Your cancellation and rescheduling policy.
• Accepted payment methods.

An easy way to say yes

The best quotes make it effortless to accept. A shareable link the customer can view on their phone — and pay online when the work is done — removes friction and gets you paid faster. Offering the quote in your customer’s preferred language (for example, English or Spanish) is another simple way to build trust.
