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.
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.
One-time visits cost more per session because setup time is higher. Recurring plans, usually weekly, biweekly, or monthly, lower the per-visit price and keep dirt from accumulating. Biweekly is the most common frequency for working households. Monthly service works for low-traffic homes but allows dust and soap scum to build up between visits.
Accidents happen. Ask the company how breakage is handled before hiring. Reputable providers carry breakage coverage up to a set limit per item, often between $250 and $1,000. Items over that value, like artwork or antiques, should be listed in advance. Photograph any pre-existing damage to furniture or surfaces before the first clean.
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.
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.
Most crews bring their own vacuums, microfiber cloths, mops, and standard chemicals. Homeowners often supply paper towels and trash bags. Specialty products such as granite polish or hardwood floor cleaner may stay with the homeowner to avoid cross-contamination. Clarify ownership in writing before the first visit.
Most cleaning companies do not work on major holidays, and some add surcharges of 10 to 20 percent around long weekends. Book holiday slots 3 to 4 weeks in advance because demand is high. Ask for the company's holiday list in writing so you can plan visits around closures and avoid last-minute cancellation fees.
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.
A typical two-bedroom home with one bathroom takes 2 to 3 hours for a small crew. Larger homes with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms often require 4 to 5 hours. First-time cleanings take longer because grime buildup needs more attention. Ask the cleaner to estimate hours before signing a recurring schedule so you know the real commitment.
