Window cleaning pricing questions
How much should I charge per window pane?
Pick one exterior rate per pane and stick to it, then price interiors, screens and tracks as separate lines. Consistency is what lets you quote fast without visiting first.
Do I count panes or windows?
Panes. A double-hung window has two, and a large picture window may count as more. Tell customers how you count so their number matches yours.
Should second-story windows cost more?
Most owners add a multiplier for upper stories because ladder work is slower and riskier. It keeps two-story quotes consistent.
