Window Cleaning Invoice Template (Free)

By ShowTheReceipts · Updated

Short answer

A window cleaning invoice needs the exterior and interior charges broken out separately, plus any add-ons — screens, storm windows, second-story access — as their own line items, along with the job date, address, and payment terms. Copy the template below, or use invoicing software that generates it from the quote automatically.

What belongs on the invoice

  • Business name and contact info
  • Customer name and property address
  • Job date
  • Line items — exterior, interior (if done), and each add-on separately
  • Subtotal, any tax, and total due
  • Payment terms — due on receipt
  • Payment method(s) accepted

Why the split matters later, not just now

Breaking exterior and interior into separate lines pays off on the next visit, not just this one — when a returning customer wants exterior-only, you both already have a documented price for it instead of guessing what “half of last time’s total” should be.

Skipping the copy-paste

A blank template works, but it’s one more thing to fill out between jobs. Invoicing software that already has the quote can generate this exact invoice in one tap, with a payment link attached — so the customer can pay before you’ve loaded the ladder back on the truck.

Frequently asked questions

Should exterior and interior be separate line items?

Yes. They're priced differently and take different amounts of time, so a single combined number makes it harder to explain the total if a customer only wants exterior next time.

When should I send the invoice?

On completion, while you're still at the property. Window cleaning has no follow-up visit or material lead time, so there's no reason to invoice later and add a collection step you don't need.

Do screens need their own line?

Yes, whenever you removed and rehung them — it's a distinct step from washing the glass and customers notice when it's missing from a re-quote comparison.
