Why New York differs

New York differs because this public calculator uses a $17.00/hr base wage and a 1.1805 labor burden multiplier for NY. New York combines a high base wage with a high burden multiplier, so labor-heavy daily service can move faster than the square footage suggests.

Outside common monthly shorthand range

Common office cleaning references often show $0.10- $0.18/sqft but do not always label monthly vs. per-visit math. CleanScope shows both; it does not inflate the engine output.

ISSA 612 task times

Hours come from seeded production-rate rows, not a hidden multiplier.

Transparent assumptions

Default overhead is 10%; profit is 15%; labor burden uses the selected state profile.

Same engine path

The public tool calls the same pure calculation engine used inside CleanScope proposals.

State rate method

How New York estimates are calculated

Use the New York preset to price the recurring route, then confirm building access, elevator time, security procedures, and any after-hours limits.

1

Task hours

Square footage is divided by the matching ISSA production rate. Restrooms use fixture counts instead of square footage.

2

Monthly workload

Each task is multiplied by the selected cleaning frequency, such as daily, weekly, or monthly.

3

Burdened labor

Base wage is adjusted for FICA, SUTA, and workers comp using the selected state labor profile.

4

Contract price

The engine adds 10% overhead and 15% profit, then returns monthly and annual contract value.

New York cleaning rates by facility type

These rows use the New York labor profile with $17.00/hr base wage and 1.1805 burden multiplier, then run the same ISSA 612 facility examples.

Use local labor data, not a national flat rate

The New York page keeps ISSA task time constant while changing wage and burden values. That makes labor cost differences visible without changing the deterministic pricing engine.

FAQ

New York cleaning rate questions

How are commercial cleaning rates in New York calculated?+

CleanScope converts square footage, task list, fixtures, and frequency into labor hours, then applies the New York labor profile before overhead and profit.

What labor assumptions does the New York calculator use?+

The public New York page uses a $17.00/hr base wage and a 1.1805 burden multiplier from the seeded state labor table.

What should I double-check before sending a New York bid?+

New York estimates should call out access windows and vertical travel because they can turn a simple square-foot scope into a labor-heavy route.
