Does this sound reasonable for a cleaning job?

So I think I'm considering a cleaning job for a Saturday morning..





I'm in my late teens, I dont have allot of experience with this. I normally nanny.. But I love to clean and clean my own house top to bottom non stop..





I'm thinking 15/hr. with a $60 minimum for an average/small house. and a $75 dollar minimum for a large house.





I'd come late morning, Dust, Clean all windows and doors, I'd sweep, I'd do all vacuuming, I would shake all matts and small rugs out outside.





I'd then clean down the kitchen counters, and sink, and appliances.





Then I'll clean the kitchen floor, by hand!





Then I'd go upstairs, and get the bathrooms.. Windows, vaccume rooms.. ECT.





And for an extra.. $5 a time, I'd do the main sheets and pillow cases and make up the bed..





I'd also clean the cat little if they have a cat!





Oh, and I'll provide all my cleaners and such. EXCEPT a vaccume, trash bags (if i clean the trash), and a toilet brush.





So thats my basic plan..








does this sound..





Cheap?





Just right? (perfect!)





Reasonable..? (maybe a tad high.. but not bad)








Or very pricey?








And what price would you recommend if you have a problem with my price?

Don't forget to dust. :) I'm sure you just missed that one.





I used to clean houses....now I just clean my own.


Price sounds good but windows usually are a one month thing and an extra cost. If you really want to include that then they are lucky. Call your local molly maid or big cleaning company and ask questions and prices they charge for different things. They will probably ask you how many rooms, bathrooms and what you want done before they give you an estimate.
Reply:I guess it would depend on what area you live in. I live in Massachusetts and for your price I would hire you in a heartbeat. If you find that people are jumping at this and you are getting a lot of jobs over the next couple months I would raise the price to $20/hr to new clients. People will let you know if your prices are too high but wont if they are too low. Good Luck w/ your endeavor.





If you are in the MA area you're hired!
Reply:A friend of mine charges $15 to $20 per hour and gets it. If you want to do it on a flat rate per house, I would raise the price just a little. I would hire you in a minute, as I don't get to clean the way I like because of an arm injury. You sound like the person I need.
Reply:I would hire you. Just make sure you follow through on what you promise
Reply:Sounds pretty fair, though I think most cleaners charge a flat rate by the job, not by the hour (so you don't have the client looking over your shoulder every time you take a break.) I think I would start with a basic flat rate like $65 for a 3 bed/ 2 bath house, assuming 1 kitchen, 1 living room, and 1 dining room or den. Then add $5-$8 for each additional room. Make sure you write out the terms of your agreement, and put in a stipulation saying that rooms needing "excessive cleaning" will be charged more, so they aren't leaving the place trashed when they know you are coming.


Good Luck.
Reply:ive been cleaning for about 7 years, when i price an average size house ,i tend to charge about 15 an hour. However i let the customer provide the cleaning supplies,they already have what they usually cleanwith.It will be a lot easier on you if you dont have to lug around 20lbs of chemical cleaning supplies. make your windows a seperate job alltogether, I charge 5dollars a window,and give that a day to itself,thats a lot of work. good luck
