FAQs

Can you explain your the rate you charge for cleaning?

I charge $40/hour as my standard price for cleaning. It is the same as my deep cleaning price because I have to bring the space up to my standards. The first visit is a chance to assess the time it will take to complete a regular cleaning, the needs and expectations of the client and whether we can become a good fit for one another. Every cleaning company and cleaning lady has a different price model and method to accomplish the same end goal. $40/hour is my rate for the first visit, deep cleaning and regular cleaning that isn't a recurring cleaning booking. 

I charge $35/hour for recurring cleanings. This rate is only available for a repeat client who saves a card on file through Square.

Why do you have a 3 hour minimum for cleaning?

I have a 3 hour minimum for cleaning for a few different reasons. 

  • 3 hours is enough time to clean a standard 3 bed/3 bathroom home and 3 bed/3 bath-2 bed/ 2 bath-1 bed/1 bath apartments. I don't accept 30 minute or 1 hour cleaning jobs because it mismanages time throughout my workday. If you need help cleaning I will accept work that acknowledges my minimum price. If you are comfortable paying $120 for cleaning that takes less than 3 hours to complete then we can work together.

  • I have a 4 hour minimum for deep cleaning a 1 bed/1 bath unit and a 6 minimum for deep cleaning any space larger than a 1 bed/1 bath.

  • I recommend a deep cleaning 2X a year for short term rentals and 1X per year for residences. 

Are you insured?

Yes

I have liability insurance with Hiscox that covers property damage during a cleaning .

How long does a cleaning take?

Cleaning time depends on a few factors including:

  • The presence of pet hair and/or pet stains

  • If the space was regularly cleaned 

  • The number of people inside of the home 

  • The amount of dishes, laundry, cardboard or trash in the unit

What payment methods do you accept?

I accept cash, cash app or I can send a payable invoice to your email address via Square when I complete the cleaning job. I accept checks from a repeat client. I will not accept a check from a first time client or from a client who is not present during the cleaning. 

What types of equipment and cleaning supplies do you use?

I primarily use eco-friendly, natural, non bleach and low fragrance products. I only use bleach when it is absolutely necessary, such as when mold is present. I prefer to use products that have a natural fragrance. I really believe that fragrances are used to conceal odor and if a space is truly clean the extra fragrance is not necessary .

Why don’t you have any pictures of your past work on your website?

I don’t take pictures of homes as reference work because I respect people’s privacy. I will take before and after photos of the space I am cleaning if the client asks for me to do so beforehand or if they are not present to review the completed work..
