Cleaning Time Estimates
Auto-calculate accurate cleaning times
Get precise, data-driven labor hours for every building – no guessing, no spreadsheets, no surprises.
How It Works
Janitorial cleaning time updates automatically as details change
Labor hours based on tasks, room types, fixtures, and frequency
Automatic Calculation
CleanGuru calculates an exact labor hour requirement the moment you load a building
CleanGuru automatically generates the cleaning time for each visit using task-based workloading and proprietary, field-tested production rates. Instead of hoping your estimate is close, you get an exact hourly calculation the moment you load a building.
This helps ensure accuracy, protects profits, and makes your estimates repeatable and professional.
Instant Recalculation
Change any detail and the cleaning time updates immediately
CleanGuru combines task production-rate-driven times with fixture counts like toilets, urinals, and sinks to deliver a calculated average per visit cleaning time.
If you change any detail — task, room type, fixture count, or frequency — the cleaning time updates immediately. Supervisors, estimators, and owners all speak the same language: accurate labor hours.
Build bids from real workload, not rough guesses
Many bidding tools still rely on manual estimates or spreadsheet math. CleanGuru calculates janitorial labor hours using task-based workloading and proprietary, field-tested production rates, so bids stay more consistent, repeatable, and easier to defend.
