"I used to spend 15 minutes setting up estimates on my laptop at night. Now I build the quote and send it via WhatsApp before I even leave the customer's driveway."
"Most contractor software is built for 15-person companies with fleet GPS. QuoteNest is the first platform that feels like it was actually designed for solo owner-operators."
"I am not a tech person at all. Other software completely overwhelmed me with all the complicated menus and setups. QuoteNest took me 2 minutes to figure out."
"Sending professional proposals directly to my client's WhatsApp is incredible. Clients tap the link, hit approve, and I get paid the same day instead of waiting for emails to be opened."

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about switching your window washing quoting to QuoteNest.
Is Housecall Pro worth it for a solo contractor?
For a solo contractor doing residential cleaning, pressure washing, or window cleaning, Housecall Pro is typically massive overkill. Paying $79 to $229/month for fleet dispatching tools eats into your profits. QuoteNest gives you fast mobile quotes, instant WhatsApp proposals, and automated rebooking reminders for just $12/month.
How much do I save switching from Housecall Pro to QuoteNest?
Housecall Pro costs between $948 and $2,748 per year. QuoteNest costs $144 per year flat. A solo contractor saves over $800 to $2,500 every single year while gaining a faster 30-second mobile quoting workflow.
How do clients approve quotes sent through QuoteNest?
When you tap Send via WhatsApp, your client receives a secure, branded web link. They tap the link on their phone, review your itemized service options, and tap Accept with a single click. You receive instant notification so you can schedule the job.
Should I price window cleaning per pane or per window?
Per pane is the industry standard — typically $4–$8 per pane for interior and exterior. But plenty of successful solo operators just offer flat-rate packages: Small House ($150), Medium House ($250), Large House ($400). Flat rates close deals faster because the client doesn't have to count their own windows.
How do I charge more for hard-to-reach windows?
Add a story surcharge. Ground floor is your base rate. Second story adds 25–50% per pane. Third story or skylight access doubles it. French windows with multiple small panes take more time — charge per pane, not per frame. Always quote screens and track cleaning as separate add-ons.
