What the wage data means for your quote
Labor is most of a cleaning contract, so Providence's median of $18.35 an hour sets the floor under every bid, before payroll taxes, insurance, supplies and profit.
Arithmetic, not a price: the federal NCES school maintenance guide puts a custodian's output at 28,000 to 31,000 sq ft per 8-hour shift at its "Level 3" standard, which is about 2.6 to 2.9 hours for 10,000 sq ft, times about 21.7 visits a month, times the median wage. See the commercial cleaning cost guide for how a full quote is built.
