House washing price calculator
Price a soft wash from the size of the home, add a multiplier for extra stories, and add-ons for heavy growth. The same three rules most exterior cleaning owners already use in their heads.
The rates on this page are examples to show the method. They are not market data. Type your own rates and the price updates as you go.

Flat $149/mo, no per-lead fees. The first 10 owners lock $99/mo for life.
House washing pricing questions
How do I price a house wash?
Start from the square footage of the home times your rate, multiply for a second or third story because ladders and reach take longer, then apply your minimum. Heavy growth and gutter brightening go on as add-ons.
Should a two-story house cost more to wash?
Most owners charge more for each extra story because the work is slower and needs more equipment. A multiplier keeps that consistent instead of guessing each time.
Do I need to see the house before I quote it?
Not always. With the square footage from the customer or a property listing and your rules, you can send a price the same hour and adjust on site only if something is very different.
