Restroom Cleaning Calculator

This calculator times a restroom service pass fixture by fixture using benchmarks from the ISSA Cleaning Times — the published industry-standard workloading guide from ISSA, The Worldwide Cleaning Industry Association: 4 minutes per toilet or urinal, 2.5 minutes per sink, 1 minute per mirror (assumed one per sink), 5 minutes of floor mopping per restroom, and 4 minutes of restocking per restroom — then multiplies that per-pass total by however many times per day each restroom is serviced to get daily cleaning hours and labor cost. Supply consumption is modeled independently of cleaning frequency and instead driven by building occupancy: it assumes each of your daily building occupants uses a restroom 3 times a day (driving toilet-paper consumption at roughly one roll per 40 uses) and washes hands 4 times a day (driving paper-towel consumption at one roll per 50 hand-washes and soap at 4 pumps of 1.5 mL each), then projects monthly cost over a fixed 22 working days using flat unit prices for TP, towels, and soap. Notice that dailyUsers, not cleaningsPerDay, is what drives supply cost — cleaning more often doesn't consume more toilet paper, but it does add labor time, so those two levers move independently in the output and shouldn't be confused.

The per-fixture time assumptions are averages: a heavily used restroom with graffiti, vandalism, or unusually high traffic will run longer than the model predicts, and specialty fixtures (touchless dispensers, floor drains needing extra attention) aren't separately accounted for. Because monthly costs assume exactly 22 working days, facilities cleaned on weekends or with irregular schedules should scale the monthly figures rather than take them at face value.
