Why Solo Window Washing Pros Leave Jobber

Enterprise field service suites were built for corporate offices. QuoteNest was built for the truck cab.

Jobber's multi-step creation slows you down while the homeowner watches. Tap pane count, select stories, toggle screen cleaning, and send before packing up your pole.

Jobber charges $149+/mo to automate spring and fall rebooking reminders. QuoteNest includes automated client follow-ups in our $12/month flat rate.

Our Honest Anti-Bloat Guarantee

We do not build GPS fleet vehicle tracking, 15-technician dispatch boards, or complex corporate accounting modules. If you manage a large fleet of service trucks, Jobber is built for you. But if you're a solo window washing pro who just wants to calculate a quote in 30 seconds, send a branded link via WhatsApp, and get paid for $12/month, QuoteNest was engineered exclusively for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about switching your window washing quoting to QuoteNest.

Why are solo contractors switching from Jobber to QuoteNest?

Jobber is a powerful platform for large businesses managing multiple crews and vehicle fleets. But for solo contractors, Jobber adds unnecessary complexity, slow multi-screen quoting, and high monthly costs ($49–$149+/mo). QuoteNest strips away the enterprise bloat and delivers what solo operators actually need: fast 30-second mobile quotes, WhatsApp delivery, and clean client approval for just $12/month.

Does QuoteNest have fleet tracking or multi-truck dispatch?

No, and that is intentional. QuoteNest is laser-focused on solo owner-operators. We don't build GPS fleet tracking or multi-crew payroll menus because solo operators shouldn't have to pay $150/month for features they will never touch.

Can I switch from Jobber without losing my current client flow?

Yes. QuoteNest requires zero complex onboarding. You can create your account in 60 seconds, input your rates, and start sending professional branded quotes to clients immediately from your phone.

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.
