Be your own boss.
Do great work.
Get paid well.

Cloud 9 Windows finds the customers. You do the work, your way, on your own time. We built this whole company around the person holding the squeegee. Not the other way around.

  • Technician first. Every choice we make starts with what's good for you.

  • Flexible schedule. You pick your hours. You pick your jobs.

  • One simple app. See your jobs, set your availability, get paid. All in one place.

  • Real pay. Earn a strong percentage of every job. No cap on what you can make.

  • Upsells. Spot extra work on the job. Mention it. Get paid more for it.

Let's be honest with each other.

This job is for you if:

  • You want to run your own show, not punch a clock

  • You want to get paid for what you do, not just for showing up

  • You take pride in a clean, finished job

  • You're comfortable on a ladder, outside, in the heat

  • You want flexible hours, not a fixed shift

This job is not for you if:

  • You need a guaranteed paycheck every two weeks

  • You want someone standing over your shoulder all day

  • You'd rather not talk to customers

  • Heights make you nervous

  • You need health insurance or other benefits through your work

What is required to work with Cloud 9 Window Cleaning

Equipment

Bring your own tools. You're the expert. You choose your gear.

  • Squeegee, scrubber, and extension pole

  • A ladder rated for the job

  • Your own cleaning supplies

What a Good Clean Looks Like

The standard is simple: like new.

  • Glass is streak-free, top to bottom

  • Tracks and sills are clean, not just wiped

  • Nothing is damaged along the way

  • The site is as tidy when you leave as when you arrived

What a Happy Customer Looks Like

Happy customers come back. And they tell their friends.

  • You walk the finished job with them before you go

  • You tell them what you did, in plain words

  • You leave their home better than you found it

Why contractors stay.

Most companies ask contractors to work around the business. We built the business around the contractor. That means real flexibility, real pay, and real respect for the fact that you're running your own show.

Technician first.

You're not a number on a schedule. You're the reason we have a business.

Real upside.

Upsell, we adjust price, get paid for it. Your effort shows up in your paycheck.

Freedom.

Set your own hours. Take the jobs you want. Manage it all from one app.

A look at our contractor expectations and agreement.

A plain-language look at what you're agreeing to. This is a summary, not the agreement itself.

You're your own boss

You're an independent contractor, not an employee. You control how you do the work. We just tell you what "done well" looks like.

You choose your jobs

You can accept or decline any job, anytime, for any reason. No penalty, no hard feelings.

You earn a strong percentage

You get paid a solid cut of every job you complete. The better you work, the more you make.

You get paid fast

Payouts happen weekly.

Insurance is required

You'll need liability insurance to work with us. It protects you and the customer.

You handle your own taxes

You'll get a 1099, not a W-2. You're responsible for your own taxes, since you're running your own business.

You can work with whoever you want

Want to take other jobs, or a side hustle? Go ahead. We just ask that you don't use our systems or our customer list to do it.

There's a simple way out

Either of us can end this agreement with a little notice. No traps, no fine print designed to box you in.

Frequently asked questions.

What does it mean to be an independent contractor here?

You're running your own business. You choose your jobs, your schedule, and your methods. We send you work and pay you when it's done.

How do I get paid?

You earn a strong percentage of what the customer pays for each job. Tips are always 100% yours. Direct bank transfer.

Do I have to use certain products or tools?

No. We care about the result, not the method. Use what works for you. A list of our favorite tools is available if you want.

Can I say no to a job?

Yes. Anytime, for any reason, with no penalty.

Can I bring my own team?

Yes. You can bring your own people to help, as long as they're covered by your insurance and you stand behind their work.

Do I need insurance?

Yes. It protects you, the customer, and the job.

What if a customer isn't happy?

Reach out to us right away. If you go back and fix it yourself, you keep your full pay for that job.

What if I'm running late?

Give the customer a heads-up if you're going to be more than a few minutes late. It's a small thing that builds a lot of trust.

Can I work for other companies too?

Yes. You're free to take on other work or run your own business. We just ask that you don't use our tools, systems, or customer list to do it.

Do I have to handle my own taxes?

Do I have to handle my own taxes? Yes. You'll get a 1099. You're responsible for your own income and self-employment taxes.

Can I get Cloud 9 shirts or business cards?

Sure, just ask. It's optional, but a lot of contractors find it helps build trust with new customers.

Are there ways to earn more per job?

Yes. If a customer wants something extra while you're already there, mention it, let us know the price, and get paid for the extra work.

Ready to be your own boss? Let's get you scheduled.

You may already be your own boss. In that case we will just get you more work!
