Why Texas differs

Texas differs because this public calculator uses a $16.00/hr base wage and a 1.1385 labor burden multiplier for TX. Texas routes often mix suburban offices, medical suites, and logistics space, so square footage alone can hide fixture counts and travel constraints.

Inside 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 Texas estimates are calculated

Use the Texas preset for a first pass, then adjust frequency and restroom counts for metro markets like Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Austin, and San Antonio.

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.

Rate reference

Texas cleaning rates by facility type

These rows use the Texas labor profile with $16.00/hr base wage and 1.1385 burden multiplier, then run the same ISSA 612 facility examples.

Use local labor data, not a national flat rate

The Texas 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

Texas cleaning rate questions

How are commercial cleaning rates in Texas calculated?+

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

What labor assumptions does the Texas calculator use?+

The public Texas page uses a $16.00/hr base wage and a 1.1385 burden multiplier from the seeded state labor table.

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

Texas bids commonly need separate review for day porter work, large restrooms, and warehouse dust because those items can move labor hours quickly.
