YEG commercial cleaners RECURRING PROGRAM MODEL

What is the minimum commercial cleaning visit price?

YEG commercial cleaners planning range starts at $145–$160 per visit, using a 2.5 cleaner-hour service minimum. That is a small-site floor. A 5,000 sq ft office instead budgets 4–5.5 cleaner-hours, or $235–$355 per visit. Larger or more detailed spaces need more time.

The labour model uses $58–$64 per cleaner-hour as a blended service allowance. That supports a modestly premium position relative to the published Canadian rates YEG commercial cleaners reviewed. It is a pricing choice, not a claim about a national market average.

ONE WEEK. YOUR SCHEDULE.

How weekly cleaning frequency changes monthly cost.

Illustration: a 5,000 sq ft office with 4–5.5 total cleaner-hours at $235–$355 per visit. More weekly visits increase the monthly total. This example holds the per-visit task list constant. In practice, soil buildup, occupancy and the frequency of individual tasks can change the labour required; the walkthrough confirms this.

6 nights	26	$6,110–$9,230
7 nights	30.33	$7,128–$10,768

Annualized calculation: weekly visits × 52 ÷ 12. Actual visits in a calendar month vary; holiday treatment and billing terms are agreed in the proposal.

How YEG commercial cleaners calculates commercial cleaning estimates.

YEG commercial cleaners reviewed first-party commercial-cleaning prices across Canadian markets, with Edmonton rates as the local anchor. Published rates vary in what they include. An hourly rate per cleaner is more comparable than a square-foot figure with an unclear billing period.

YEG commercial cleaners selected service rate is $58–$64 per cleaner-hour. YEG commercial cleaners uses a 2.5 cleaner-hour minimum. Offices budget 0.8–1.1 cleaner-hours per 1,000 cleanable sq ft for recurring floors, surfaces, washrooms, kitchen, waste and access checks. This includes the routine task allowance; YEG commercial cleaners does not add a second generic setup fee. Other facility types use preliminary productivity allowances. These are selected planning assumptions, not measured YEG commercial cleaners timings or an ISSA-certified production standard. YEG commercial cleaners does not mix monthly square-foot rates with per-visit rates.

Per-visit budget = max(estimated cleaner-hours, 2.5 hours) × service rate.
Monthly budget = rounded per-visit budget × weekly visits × 52 ÷ 12.

Cleaner-hours mean total labour across the team: two cleaners working two hours use four cleaner-hours. The service rate covers more than wages and is not employee pay.

The estimator shows a range because square footage cannot reveal every washroom, surface restriction, security step or soil condition. A final quote follows a site-specific scope. Higher hourly pricing does not mean every total quote will sit a fixed percentage above competitors.

Commercial cleaning cost questions.

Do you charge by the hour or by the square foot?

The estimator uses cleaner-hours internally to form a budget. The proposal sets the actual program price for your agreed scope and schedule. A per-square-foot number can be derived, but it is not a universal rate.

Why is there a minimum visit price?

Even a small site requires travel, access, setup, equipment and closing checks. The model’s minimum prevents very small area inputs from producing an impractical budget.

Does the estimate include tax?

No. All displayed amounts are CAD before applicable GST. Your proposal and invoice state the tax separately.

Can I get a one-time clean?

Project and specialty work is scoped separately. This instant estimator is for recurring after-hours service from once to seven times weekly. Describe any initial deep cleaning or project needs in your request.
