About House Cleaner
Specialist Equipment the Crew Should Bring
Standard crews bring vacuums with HEPA filters, microfiber cloths, and a mop system. For deeper work they may carry a wet-dry vacuum, a steam mop for grout, or a pole duster for ceilings. Ask whether the vacuum has sealed bags or HEPA filtration, especially if anyone in the home has asthma or dust allergies.
Crew Size and Who Actually Shows Up
Most regular house cleaning visits are handled by 1 to 3 cleaners. A solo cleaner usually handles apartments under 90 m² with 1 to 2 bedrooms. Larger homes of 150 to 250 m² typically need a 2-person team, while houses above 250 m² often require 3. Ask in advance whether the same crew comes each visit or if the company rotates staff.
Green Cleaning Products and Allergies
If anyone in the home has asthma, eczema, or chemical sensitivity, request fragrance-free and dye-free products. Common safe options include vinegar-based degreasers, hydrogen peroxide disinfectants, and plant-derived surfactants. Avoid bleach in homes with children or pets. Ask the cleaner for the safety data sheet of any product used inside.
What a Standard House Cleaning Covers
A standard visit usually includes dusting reachable surfaces, vacuuming carpets and rugs, mopping hard floors, wiping kitchen counters and appliance exteriors, and scrubbing bathroom sinks, toilets, tubs, and mirrors. Most crews empty small trash bins and replace liners. Deep tasks like cleaning inside the oven, refrigerator, or windows are usually extra and should be listed in the quote.
What Happens on the First Visit
The initial visit is usually longer and costs more than maintenance cleans. Expect 30 to 50 percent higher pricing because heavy buildup, soap scum, and overlooked areas are addressed. After the first visit, cleaners establish a baseline and the time per visit drops. Ask whether the first-visit rate applies once or every time buildup returns.
Cancelling, Rescheduling, and Lockout Policies
Most companies require 24 to 48 hours notice to avoid a cancellation fee equal to half the visit cost. Lockouts caused by no-show homeowners usually carry a flat trip charge. Rescheduling is often free with enough notice. Read the policy section in the contract carefully before signing to avoid surprise charges later.
Common Problems and How to Prevent Them
Broken items, scratched floors, and missed spots top the complaint list. Photograph valuable or fragile pieces before the first visit. Clear clutter from counters and floors to reduce time pressure. Walk through the home with the lead cleaner at the end of each visit and note any issue within 24 hours so it can be fixed.
Tipping, Invoicing, and Payment Methods
Tipping is not required but common, usually $10 to $25 per cleaner per visit. Ask whether tips are cash only or can be added to a card payment. Invoices should itemize labor, supplies, and any add-ons. Confirm accepted payment methods in advance. Many companies charge a 3 percent processing fee for credit card payments under $100.
Cleaning Frequency and Minimum Commitments
Service is usually offered weekly, every 2 weeks, every 3 weeks, or monthly. Weekly clients pay the lowest per-visit rate, often 20 to 30 percent less than monthly. Many companies require a minimum of 4 recurring visits before you can switch to a longer interval. Cancellation of a recurring plan usually requires 30 days of notice.
Deep Cleaning and Seasonal Add-Ons
Deep cleaning reaches places skipped during routine visits: baseboards, window tracks, ceiling fans, vent covers, and behind large appliances. Plan a deep clean every 3 to 6 months. Add-ons often include interior oven, refrigerator, and cabinet cleaning. These tasks add 1 to 2 hours and cost roughly 20 to 40 percent more than a regular visit.
