How to choose a cleaning service
Ask for proof of insurance
A cleaning company should carry general liability insurance in case something in your home is broken or damaged. Ask for a certificate of insurance and check that it is current. Companies with employees should also carry workers' compensation, so you are not exposed if a cleaner is hurt on your property.
Ask whether cleaners are bonded
A bond or similar coverage protects you if something goes missing during a cleaning. Ask whether the company carries one and whether they run background checks on their staff. If you hire an independent cleaner, ask plainly what happens if an item is damaged or lost.
Get a written, itemized quote
A good quote lists exactly what is included, room by room, plus extras like the inside of the oven, the inside of the fridge or interior windows. Ask whether the price is flat or hourly and how many cleaners will come. For carpet and air duct cleaning, the quote should be based on your actual rooms or system, not a vague special.
Be wary of bargain specials
A very low advertised price for whole-house air duct or carpet cleaning can be a bait and switch. The crew arrives, then adds charges or pushes costly add-ons you did not plan for. Ask what the advertised price covers and get the full price in writing before any work begins.
Ask about methods and products
Ask what cleaning products they use, and whether they can use your own or fragrance-free options if anyone at home has allergies or pets. Carpet cleaners should explain their method and how long the carpet will take to dry. Gutter and window crews working on ladders or roofs should explain how they work safely.
What it typically costs
These are typical US price ranges, and local prices can be higher or lower depending on where you live.
Home size, the number of bathrooms, pets and how often you book all change the price.
Extras like the inside of appliances, cabinets and baseboards add time and cost.
Heavy stains, pet odor treatment and stairs usually cost extra.
Two-story homes, steep roofs and clogged downspouts raise the price.
Common questions
What is the difference between a standard clean and a deep clean?
A standard clean covers regular upkeep, such as dusting, vacuuming, mopping, and wiping down the kitchen and bathrooms. A deep clean goes further, reaching baseboards, the inside of appliances, cabinet fronts, light fixtures and built-up grime. Many companies ask for a deep clean on the first visit, then move you to standard cleans after that.
How much does house cleaning cost in your area?
A standard cleaning for a two to three bedroom home often falls somewhere between $120 and $250, though prices in your area may be higher or lower. Deep cleans and move-out cleans cost more because they take longer. Regular weekly or every-other-week service is often priced lower per visit than a one-time clean.
Do I need to be home when the house cleaners come?
No, many people are not home during cleanings and give the company a key or door code. If you do, ask how the company stores keys and codes and who will have access to them. For the first visit, being there for a quick walkthrough helps the cleaners understand what matters most to you.
Is air duct cleaning worth it?
Air duct cleaning is worth it in specific situations, not as routine yearly maintenance. Good reasons include visible mold inside the ducts or other parts of the system, signs of rodents or insects, or heavy dust after a renovation. A whole-house job typically runs a few hundred dollars, so be wary of very cheap specials that grow once the crew arrives.
How often should gutters be cleaned?
Most homes need their gutters cleaned at least twice a year, usually in late spring and again in the fall. Homes under tall trees, especially pines, may need it more often. Clogged gutters can overflow and send water toward your foundation, so it pays to stay ahead of them.
How often should carpets be professionally cleaned?
For most homes, about once a year is a good rule of thumb. Homes with pets, young children or allergy sufferers may benefit from cleaning more often. Some carpet warranties require periodic professional cleaning, so check yours and keep the receipts.
