Why this invoice template matters
Carpet cleaning pricing varies widely based on method, soil level, and square footage. A clear invoice shows customers whether they're paying per room or per square foot, documents pre-existing stains, and itemizes extras like deodorizing or Scotchgard. This prevents disputes about pricing and sets expectations for results on heavily soiled or stained areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do carpet cleaners charge - per room or square foot?
Both methods work. Per room is simpler ($25-$75/room) but per square foot ($0.20-$0.40/sq ft) is more accurate for large or small rooms. Always specify which method on your invoice.
Should carpet cleaning invoices document pre-existing stains?
Yes, always note pre-existing stains before cleaning. This manages expectations and protects you from complaints about stains that couldn't be removed.
How do you charge for stain treatment?
Stain treatment is usually $15-$50 per stain or area, depending on severity. Pet stains cost more ($35-$75) because they require enzyme treatments and multiple applications.
