upholstery cleaning - cleanclub77 - 10-14-2019
I'm in the process of bidding on upholstery cleaning. I have around 33 chairs to clean.
I will be using punch as my cleaner. Not sure if I will be using hand bonnet only or mixing
punch in extractor after bonnet cleaning. I guess it will depend on how dirty chairs are.
What do you upholstery cleaners using this method normally charge per chair?
RE: upholstery cleaning - encapman - 10-14-2019
We'd normally charge between $3 - $8 per chair surface for commercial upholstery jobs like you're describing. Office chairs normally have 2 or 3 surfaces. The two cushioned surfaces where you sit - and the third surface would be the backside. The price can be lower if there are loads of chairs and they can be encap cleaned with a Bonnet Mitt, Rota Brush, or Drill Driver. And the rate slides higher when there are fewer chairs and if they need to be extracted.
For example: With a bonnet mitt you can typically clean a two-sided chair in a couple of minutes. So your 33 chairs would comfortably take a couple of hours. Even in the low range of $4 per surface, you'd generate $264.
