Itemized residential window cleaning estimate

The table below uses the same quantities and unit prices as the downloadable PDF. Amounts are in US dollars; the location provides context and does not make these local market rates.

Residential window cleaning example — USD Work item | Quantity | Unit price | Amount |

Site setup and protection | 1 job | $95.00 | $95.00 |

Interior glass cleaning | 20 each | $12.00 | $240.00 |

Exterior glass cleaning | 20 each | $15.00 | $300.00 |

Screen cleaning | 20 each | $6.00 | $120.00 |

Track wiping allowance | 20 each | $5.00 | $100.00 |

Final check and cleanup | 1 job | $85.00 | $85.00 |

Subtotal / example total | $940.00 |

Tax and markup: not included. Determine and apply the appropriate values for your own job. A zero tax entry in this example does not mean the work is tax-exempt.

How to read the quantities

Twenty interior sides × $12 = $240. Twenty exterior sides × $15 = $300. Their $540 glass subtotal excludes screens, tracks and setup.

What the example includes—and leaves out

Separate interior glass, exterior glass, screens and tracks. This makes partial-scope requests easy to revise without guessing a package discount.

Outside this scope: No high-access equipment, hard-water restoration, paint scraping, damaged-screen repair or storm-window disassembly.

Keep unresolved selections and site conditions visible. If a measurement, material choice or repair requirement changes, revise the relevant quantity or allowance and share the updated estimate before proceeding with the added work.

Common questions

Should inside and outside be separate lines?

They are separate here so the included surfaces and any scope change remain clear.

Does standard cleaning remove hard-water staining?

Do not assume so. Inspect deposits and price restoration work separately if offered.
