The average commercial building cleaners charge $35 an hour. You will need to determine how many hours it will take you and your crew to clean this space. Most office buildings, doctor's office, or commercial offices take around 4 hours to clean this size area.
However, considering this is a new constructed building and the dust and other factors left behind will take longer to clean. If you have a 3 man/woman team I would say this will take you between 5 to 6 hours to finish the job. I would estimate that your total charges should be around $210 to $250 to clean this space.
It will be more than you would charge for a regular cleaning, because you will have more dust and debris. Depending on your area, charge between $50-150 more.
I would charge 75 an hour to clean.
Final construction cleaning is important stage I would think, is it the stage to show/sell the house in?
This would cost more than regular cleaning. If it's 2 stories, or 3 - it would cost more as the upstairs would need cleaning with the walls/windows.
Rates would vary depending on location. I would do research and see how much it is in your area per hour and give a competitive rate.
Construction debris could include nails, carpet / flooring remnants, stickers on windows, packing materials from light fixtures as well as kitchen and bathroom fixtures, sawdust, drywall dust everywhere. Have a look at the place before providing a quote? The simple way would be to provide an hourly fee for the three of you, including any special equipment or supplies you may need to rent then provide a final bill upon completion. Calculating hours isn't always easy.
It may depend a little on the rates in your local area. However this kind of ranges around $20-35/person/hr so for 3 people you are looking at $60-105/hr so you should probably find out what the going rates are in your area so to be comparable. A house this size in new construction can take at least 6 hrs - 8 or 10 and that all depends on how many cupboards/closets, what kind/ how many other fixtures, etc, that you will have to clean.
