Why the spread? The national guides average many markets and many crews; a company's own flat rate covers its insurance, travel and minimum charge. Clean Pro lists its tiers as single-story standard ($249 to $299), two-story high-access ($299 to $399) and multi-level estate ($399 to $499). Homeyou's Rockford breakdown is two hours of labor at $162 to $194 plus a $10 to $24 equipment allowance.
