How to use the cleaning bid calculator
Government cleaning and facility-service bids usually fail for one of two reasons: the price does not cover the real labour burden, or the proposal does not explain how the staffing plan supports the scope. This calculator starts with the inputs a buyer normally gives you in a Canadian RFP: square footage, building type, service frequency, shift timing, and any higher-risk requirements such as medical-grade work.
For anonymous visitors, Wonable returns a fast planning estimate using public Ontario labour-cost assumptions, WSIB burden, CPP, EI, supplies, overhead, and target margin. Signed-in users can run the same pricing workflow against their company profile and proposal workspace, then carry the numbers into a bid draft.
What the estimate should help you check
- Whether your monthly price clears labour, statutory burden, supplies, overhead, and margin.
- Whether the implied cleaner count and hours per month are realistic for the site size.
- Whether a lower bid is actually underpriced once WSIB, vacation pay, CPP, and EI are included.
- Whether you need a more detailed site walk, union-rate check, or buyer clarification before submitting.
