Answer 2

As any good estimator knows the first thing you would do is figure out how many men and how many hours it would take to do this job, then you figure out how much you pay these people and what the cost of employing them is, i.e. workers compensation, office staff, fica match, insurance, unemployment taxes, then you figure out how much material you will need to do this job and I presume you would do this by section for example figure all the costs associated with the 2500 sq ft resilient cleaning, then you take the total amount the costs for this item and divide it by the square footage to come up with a price per square foot, make sure you add in for extras too, because Murphy's Law always applies.  You have to figure out the costs first to bid on a job like this and I assume that you are bidding on work????????

Answer 3

If this is a service that you want to buy, call appropriate vendors.  If you are pricing a service you want to sell, I recommend a truck charge (fixed fee, or per mile, to get the truck to the site), and a charge per square foot.  For a house, a charge per room is probably easier.
