What drives take-home pay
- Windows per hour. Fixr estimates labor is about 90% of the price, so speed is income.
- Recurring share. A quarterly customer at $221 a visit is worth $884 a year with no new sales effort.
- Add-ons. Screens ($5), tracks ($1/window) and hard water removal ($15/pane) per HomeAdvisor lift the ticket.
- Costs. Insurance, vehicle, tools and marketing come off the top; employees add payroll and workers’ comp.
Federal wage statistics group window cleaners with other building cleaning workers, so they do not reflect owner-operator earnings. Model your own business with the calculator.
