For new cleaning businesses
Cleaning business software for your first customers.
Keep your first enquiries, quotes, scheduled cleans and invoices together. Start with one customer and use the same records as you add more work or bring someone onto the team.
Start your free trial30 days free. No credit card required. The trial does not automatically become a paid subscription.
Start with the work you already have
You can use Tanvelo as an owner-operator. Add a customer, record where the cleaning will take place, and prepare the work you need to quote or schedule. Add cleaners when you need help, within your plan’s user limit.
Keep the customer’s instructions with the job: which rooms are included, when you can get in, how often you will return, and anything you still need to confirm before pricing.
See how one customer moves through Tanvelo
This fictional example follows a new cleaning company preparing a weekly office clean. The customer needs the lobby and two washrooms cleaned every Monday before staff arrive at 8 a.m.
Record the request.
Add the customer and service address. Note the areas, preferred time and questions still to answer, such as who provides access before the office opens.
Prepare the quote.
Confirm the scope and your price before sending the estimate. Keep the customer’s acceptance with the agreed work.
Plan and complete the visits.
Schedule the recurring clean. The assigned person can open the job on their phone, follow the checklist and add the required notes or photos.
Review and invoice.
Check the completed work, follow up on anything outstanding and prepare the customer invoice from the job records.

- Customers and service addresses
- Keep contact details, service locations and job instructions together.
- Quotes and agreed work
- Prepare estimates and retain what the customer accepted.
- One-time and recurring visits
- Plan the work and give the assigned person the details for each visit.

Is it the right time for software
A calendar and spreadsheet may be enough while you have a few simple jobs. Tanvelo becomes worth considering when you want the quote, recurring schedule, instructions, completion record and invoice attached to the same customer and job.
Still choosing your tools? Compare cleaning business software vs spreadsheets before deciding what you need first.
Use the trial with a customer you already serve or a job you are preparing. You can then decide whether the workflow is useful before choosing a subscription.
