Bookkeeping Built for Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning

Carpet cleaning splits into two worlds: franchise operators (Chem-Dry, Stanley Steemer territories, Oxi Fresh) whose books must handle royalties, brand funds, and franchisor reporting, and independents whose books must prove their marketing spend is buying jobs at a survivable cost. Both share the same core economics: a van, a technician, chemistry, and a schedule that has to stay full.

What carpet cleaning books need to get right

  • Royalties and brand-fund fees (for franchisees) accounted cleanly and reconciled against franchisor statements
  • Marketing cost per booked job, when Google Ads and LSA drive the schedule, acquisition cost is a survival number
  • Per-van economics: revenue, labor, fuel, and chemistry per truck per day
  • Commercial contracts (offices, restaurants, property managers) reported separately from residential
  • Upsells (protectant, deodorizer, tile, upholstery) tracked, because add-ons are most of the ticket margin
  • Chemistry and supplies COGS per job type, not one blended blob
