About Trade Pricing Control

Trade Pricing Control is a free set of pricing calculators for home-service businesses, and for the homeowners who hire them.

Why we built it

Pricing is one of the hardest parts of running a service business. Charge too little and you work for free. Charge too much and you lose the job. Most owners price from memory, a competitor's flyer, or a spreadsheet they built in their first month.

Each calculator here turns published market data into an itemized quote in seconds. It also shows what the job pays you per hour, the number that decides whether a job was worth taking.

Who it's for

• Owners and new starters in window cleaning, pressure washing, gutters, cleaning, lawn and pool care, hauling and similar trades.
• Homeowners who want to know whether a quote is fair before they book.

How we keep it honest

• Every rate comes from a published, cited source. See how we calculate.
• Where we had to make an assumption, the calculator page says so.
• We review the price data at least once a year. Last reviewed: September 2026.
• Some links are affiliate links. They never change the numbers the calculators show. See our affiliate disclosure.
