If someone wanted me to do a half assed job, I'd tell them to call SS.

I agree with Doug that the job should be done right. You never know who wil see it and bring you work. As for the price ask for what it's worth to you not the customer.

Do a test clean, unless you already know how it will clean up. Figure $100-$200 an hour is what I would charge.

Do the job the way it should be done. Do a demo for him on how well you can get it cleaned, he may pay for the high quality job vs the SS style cleaning.

People call me for what I do, not what I don't do. Don't lower your quality to match your customers budget. I do the same job whether I'm working for free OR normal prices, but I don't work for free.

I'd scrub it anyway because if you cleaned it and did a half-assed job on the grout then it grout would jump out as irregularly dirty (some clean areas and some dingy areas). The job would take 2.5 - 3.5 hours.

1600 sq ft x .25 = $400

Do you have an op with a grout brush?. If you do and the grout is not too recessed it will save a lot of time in scrubbing the grout lines.
