House Cleaning Cost Per Lead Benchmarks
What cleaning companies pay per lead, by channel, from published benchmarks with a source and period on every figure. A one-time clean and a recurring client are worth very different amounts, so judge leads by what they turn into over time.
Side-by-side channel costs
Cost per booked job / paying customer uses the source’s paying-customer definition. Samples and conversion definitions differ between sources.

Frequently asked questions
What is a good cost per lead for house cleaning?
See the table above for published house cleaning benchmarks by channel. A good cost per lead is one that still leaves profit after you account for how many leads you book. Work out your cost per booked client and compare it to your margin, including repeat visits.
Is Google LSA or Angi better for house cleaning?
It depends on what each one books for you. See the table above for what has been measured, and note that Angi does not publish its per-lead prices. Track both channels the same way: cost per lead, book rate, and cost per booked job. Then compare that against the margin on the clients each one brings in.
What does a booked job cost for house cleaning?
Take what you spent on a channel and divide it by the jobs it actually booked. See the table above for lead prices, and use your own book rate to get from cost per lead to cost per booked job. If that number is lower than your margin per job, the channel is paying for itself.
