Websites And An AI Receptionist Built For Cleaning Companies
Cleaning leads shop on price and speed, usually by text, usually at night. LeadTide builds cleaning companies a website that quotes clearly and an AI receptionist that answers every call, text, and form in seconds, gives your real rates, and books the clean. Built by the owner of a cleaning company, live in 5–7 days.
Why Cleaning Is Different From Every Other Trade
Our founder, Ryan Twomey, runs Neat Nest Cleaners, and LeadTide started as the system behind it. A few things about this business shape how we build for it:
- The quote is the sale. A plumber can say “we’ll need to see it.” A homeowner asking about a cleaning wants a number now, and the first company to give a clear one often gets the booking.
- Leads come in after hours, by text. People book cleanings from the couch in the evening, while you and your cleaners are finishing the day’s jobs.
- The real money is recurring. A one-time deep clean is a foot in the door. The weekly or biweekly client is the business. The ask has to happen right after a great first clean.
- No-shows look different. In cleaning, the costly miss is a lockout: no key, wrong gate code, a dog nobody mentioned. Reminders have to carry access details, not just a time.
- Reviews are about trust in the home. Customers are letting strangers in. Reviews that mention reliability and trust do a lot of the selling for you.
The Requests A Cleaning Company Gets, And How Your AI Handles Them
| Request | What Decides The Price | What Your AI Does |
|---|---|---|
| Standard home clean | Bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, pets | Asks those questions and gives your rate on the spot, then offers open slots |
| Deep clean or first-time clean | Home size and condition, when it was last cleaned | Quotes your deep-clean pricing, sets expectations on time, and books it |
| Move-in / move-out | Empty or furnished, appliances inside, move date | Quotes your move-out rate, books around the closing or lease date |
| Recurring weekly or biweekly | Frequency and home size | Explains your recurring discount if you offer one and books the first visit |
| Short-term rental turnovers | Turnover window, linens, restocking | Collects the property details and schedule needs, routes to you to set up |
| Office or commercial | Square footage, frequency, after-hours access | Books a walkthrough, then Big-Ticket Quotes follows up on your written proposal |
| Existing client: reschedule, add-on, key or code change | Nothing, they’re already a client | Takes the request, updates the booking where it can, and notifies you |
A Sample Text Conversation: A Deep Clean At 9:15 PM

How Each Piece Of The System Works For Cleaning
A Website That Shows The Price
Curb Appeal
Clear service menu (standard, deep, move-out, recurring, commercial), your service area, real photos where you have them, trust signals up top, and one obvious way to get a quote or book.
Answered In Seconds, Day Or Night
The First Catch
Calls, texts, and form fills answered 24/7 with your real rates. Anything that still slips through gets an immediate text back, so the 9 PM shopper hears from you first.
Commercial Proposals That Close
Big-Ticket Quotes
For office, post-construction, and recurring commercial contracts: ranges built from your own pricing, walkthroughs booked, and follow-up on every proposal until you get an answer.
No Lockouts, Fewer Cancellations
Keep
Reminders that carry entry codes, parking, and pet notes, plus an easy way to reschedule instead of a cleaner standing at a locked door.
Reviews After The Wow Moment
The Proof Loop
Automated review requests the same day as a first or deep clean, when the house looks its best. For recurring clients, after a few visits rather than every week.

When To Ask A Cleaning Client For A Review
| Job | Best Moment To Ask | Why |
|---|---|---|
| First or deep clean | A few hours after the clean, same day | The before-and-after is still fresh |
| Move-out clean | Same day, after the walkthrough | They’re relieved, and about to forget you exist |
| Recurring client | After the second or third visit, once | Asking every week wears out the relationship |
| Commercial account | After the first month of service | Consistency is what they’re judging |

Cleaning Company Owners Usually Ask
Can the AI quote a clean by bedrooms, bathrooms, or square footage?
Yes, if that’s how you price. It shares your standard rates and asks the questions that change the price (deep clean or standard, pets, when it was last cleaned). Jobs that genuinely need a walkthrough, like post-construction or large commercial spaces, get a walkthrough booked instead of a guess.
Most of my leads text or fill out a form at night. Does it handle those?
Yes. It replies to calls, texts, and website form fills around the clock, so the person comparing three cleaning companies at 9 PM hears back from you first instead of the next morning.
I use Booking Koala or Jobber. Do I have to switch?
No. By default the AI books into LeadTide’s built-in calendar and CRM. Connecting to the booking software you already use is scoped case by case on the call.
Does it help turn one-time cleans into recurring clients?
That’s one of the most valuable follow-ups in this business. After a first clean, the system can send your recurring offer at the moment the customer is happiest with the result, and follow up if they don’t answer.
Will clients know they’re talking to an AI?
It never pretends to be a person. If someone asks, it says plainly that it’s an AI assistant, and anything unusual gets handed to you.
What does it cost for a cleaning company?
The same flat pricing every trade gets: Website Only is $1,397 to build, then $97/mo. The Full System is $1,997 to build, then $247/mo. Month-to-month, no contracts. See the pricing page.
