Profitable House Cleaner
Build a More Profitable Solo Cleaning Business
A cleaning business that works around your life, not the other
way around.
I built a profitable solo cleaning business working part-time and making more than a full-time income.
Now I help other solo cleaners do the same.
Your Business Is Supposed to
Work for YOU
Whether you’re thinking about starting a cleaning business, just getting started, or you’ve been cleaning for a while...
You want this business to give you something.
More income. More freedom. More choices.
You want good clients you actually enjoy working with. You want to be paid well for the work you do.
And you want to build a business that gives you more, not one that constantly asks more from you.
That’s what a profitable solo cleaning business can do for you.
Now I teach other women how to build their cleaning businesses with the clients, pricing, systems, and structure that make that possible.
Because the goal isn’t just to start a cleaning business.
It’s to build one that changes what’s possible for you
Not Sure What You Should
Be Charging?
If you’re guessing at your cleaning prices, charging by the hour, or wondering whether your jobs are actually paying you enough,

I created a FREE Flat Rate Pricing Cheat Sheet to help you start thinking about your pricing like a business owner, not just picking a number and hoping it works.
Ready to Put the Pieces Together?
Getting the client is only one part of building a profitable solo cleaning business.
You also need to know how to choose the right clients, define what you clean, price the work, set expectations, protect your time, and create client relationships that are worth keeping.
From Busy to Profitable™
Build a simpler, more profitable solo cleaning business around valuable, long-term recurring clients.
Whether you’re brand-new and want to build your business right from the beginning, or you’ve been cleaning for a while and know parts of your business need to work better, this gives you a clear process to follow.
Inside, you’ll go from pre-screening potential clients to leading the walkthrough, pricing the work, setting policies, booking the client, and building referrals.
Hi, I'm Trisha
I built and ran my own solo residential cleaning business for over 30 years.
I didn’t start out knowing what I was doing. I undercharged, overcleaned, and thought I needed every client who was willing to hire me.
Over time, I learned how to price better, choose better clients, simplify my services, and build a business that worked for my life.
I had clients who stayed with me for 10, 15, even 20+ years, and some of those long-term clients brought $100,000 or more into my business over the years.
Not because I had a team or a huge cleaning company.
I built long-term relationships with the right recurring clients and learned just how valuable one great client could become.
Now I help other women build profitable solo cleaning businesses using what I learned from actually building one myself.
That’s the kind of business I teach now.

The 3 Pricing Mistakes That Keep Cleaning Businesses Stuck and Broke
💸 Still winging your prices?

If you’re still figuring out how to price your cleaning services — especially if you’re new — let’s clear something up right now:
Your pricing isn’t “just a number.”
It’s your boundary. Your paycheck. Your positioning.
And if you mess it up early? It gets real hard to fix later.
So let’s talk about the 3 biggest pricing mistakes I see new (and not-so-new) cleaners making — and how to fix them before they burn you out.
1️⃣ Underpricing Because You’re “Just Starting Out”
This one’s personal — because I’ve been there.
You’re new. You want clients. You feel weird charging “too much.”
So you tell yourself:
“I’ll just start low, get a few clients, and raise my prices later.”
Except that never happens.
Instead, you attract people who expect the world for $80.
They push your boundaries, flake on payments, and drain your energy.
And when you do try to raise your rates? They ghost you.
💥 Hard truth: Being new doesn’t mean being cheap.
Your time is valuable now. Not “someday.”
2️⃣ Guessing Your Rates Instead of Using a System
Let me guess — you’re charging by the hour… or worse, throwing out numbers and hoping they stick.
And every time someone says, “That’s too expensive,” you flinch a little and start second-guessing yourself.
You don’t need to guess.
You need a system — one that backs your pricing with real logic, structure, and confidence.
That’s why I made the Flat Rate Pricing Cheat Sheet — to help you quote jobs the right way, without anxiety, guesswork, or chasing what “feels fair.”
Because confidence doesn’t come from pulling numbers out of thin air.
It comes from knowing exactly why you charge what you charge — and standing by it.
3️⃣ Forgetting to Include Expenses, Taxes, and Profit
I see this all the time. You charge what feels “reasonable,” but you forget to include:
Travel time
Gas
Supplies
Wear and tear on your body and tools
Apps, taxes, insurance
And actual profit — not just what’s left over
And suddenly you’re three months in, working your tail off, and still barely covering bills
You didn’t start this business to scrape by.
You started it to run a real business — and that means your pricing has to support you.

Final Word:
If you’ve been feeling stuck, second-guessing every quote, or wondering why this business is starting to feel heavy — check your pricing.
This isn’t about working harder.
It’s about getting smarter.
And that starts with knowing your worth — and backing it with a system that works.
