Who standard house cleaning is best for
- Households that want the kitchen, bathrooms and floors handled
- Working professionals with little time midweek
- Seniors who want steady, predictable help
- Homes already in reasonable condition
Standard cleaning is upkeep: it keeps an already reasonably clean home in good shape. If the detail work such as baseboards, grout and cabinet fronts has built up, a deep cleaning is the better starting point. For an empty home changing hands, book a move-in or move-out clean instead.
What is included
- Kitchen counters, sink, stovetop and outside of appliances
- Bathrooms: toilet, sink, tub or shower, mirrors
- Vacuum and mop floors throughout
- Dust reachable surfaces, sills and ledges
- Empty bins and reline
What is not normally included

How the service works
- Tell us your home size, city and how often you would like us to visit
- We confirm the scope and send you a free quote
- We agree on a date and how we will access your home
- We clean to the standard checklist and let you know when we are done
How long does it take
Cleaning time depends on the size of your home, its current condition and any extras you add. A tidy condo takes less time than a family house that has not been cleaned in a while. We give you a realistic estimate with your quote rather than promising a fixed number of hours.
How to prepare
- Put away personal papers, clothing and toys so surfaces are clear
- Secure pets or let us know where they will be during the visit
- Tell us about anything fragile, delicate or off-limits
- Confirm how we will get in: key, lockbox, concierge or in person

Questions about standard house cleaning
How often should I book a standard clean?
Most households choose weekly or bi-weekly. Monthly works for smaller homes that stay fairly tidy. You can also book a one-time standard clean whenever you need it.
Do I need to tidy before you arrive?
You do not need to clean, but clearing personal items off surfaces lets us spend the visit on cleaning rather than tidying.
Can I add extras to a standard clean?
Yes. Extras such as inside the oven or fridge, interior windows or laundry can be requested per visit when you book or by message before we arrive.
