Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

Do house cleaners offer remote or virtual services?

House cleaning is generally done in person, but some may be willing to offer remote services. If you find a house cleaner’s profile that states they’re offering remote services, contact the pro to talk about your options. 

If you’d rather hire a house cleaner to clean your home when the pandemic is over, you may be able to book an appointment at a later date. Start by comparing local house cleaners in your area side-by-side.

How much does it cost to deep clean a house?

Deep cleaning a house goes beyond the surface level to clear out the dust, grime and gunk that’s collecting on the fan blades, hiding in the blinds, and built up inside the refrigerator drawers. Deep cleaning of a home or apartment costs more than regular house cleaning because it takes more time, effort, and cleaning products. You may choose to have a deep cleaning once or several times a year in addition to your standard cleaning services. You may have a one-time deep cleaning to prepare for company or to clean after a house party. Companies may charge an hourly rate or a price per square foot, or may offer you a flat rate after they have visited your home and estimated work time. The national average house cleaning price is $110-$150, with rates ranging higher for deep-cleaning services. Here are some examples of how a company may calculate their deep-cleaning prices:

  • 10 cents per square foot (compared with 5 cents per square foot for standard house cleaning).
  • $300 for a 3,000-square-foot home.
  • $25 per hour per worker for deep-cleaning services.

What should I ask a house cleaner or maid before hiring them?

There are many questions to ask a cleaning service before you hire them to make sure they’re the right fit. These questions might include:

  • How much do you charge?
  • How do you set your prices -- per hour or per square foot? Or, do you charge a flat rate?
  • What is your past work experience? Can I see a list of references?
  • Are you accustomed to working with different home or apartment types and sizes?
  • Can you work with children or pets in the house?
  • What types of cleaning products do you use?
  • Do you bring your own cleaning supplies and products?
  • How often can you clean my home?
  • Is there anything you recommend I do (or don't do) to my home before you arrive?

What is included in a deep house cleaning vs. a basic house cleaning?

A basic house cleaning typically includes tasks like carpet cleaning, wiping countertops, taking out the trash, doing the laundry and washing dishes. A deep house cleaning is a much more involved process, where all aspects of the home are given full attention for a cleanout. In a deep house cleaning, the cleaners will wet-wipe everything from door frames to light switch plates, making sure to also clean walls, windows, air vents, ceiling fans, furniture and more.

Should I hire a move-out cleaning service or do it myself?

You may benefit from hiring a professional move-out cleaning service, depending on your budget, time frame and whether you will be getting a deposit back. Hiring a cleaning service takes the stress out of your move. But if you’ve had your house regularly deep-cleaned, or if your landlord will charge you for cleaning anyway, you can save costs by DIY-ing it.

How long does it take to clean a house professionally?

Generally, getting your house cleaned professionally can take several hours. The time it takes for house cleaners to complete their job depends on the size of your home, the number of bedrooms and bathrooms you have, the type of service you require and the condition of your house. It also might depend on how many employees are cleaning and the supplies they are using. If you get recurring cleaning services, the first visit might take a bit longer than the subsequent visits. 

When choosing the best house cleaner for you, ask for an estimate about how long their services will take.

How much is a house cleaning?

The national average cost for house cleaning ranges between $25 and $50 per hour, per cleaner. However, the cost of house cleaning services near you might be different.

House cleaning prices vary based on how many square feet your home is, how dirty your house gets and how often the cleaning service comes. And, prices can be lower in areas with a lower cost of living, higher in big cities or affluent regions.

Some companies charge a set amount — such as 5 cents — per square foot, with a minimum amount, such as $100. You may save money by increasing the frequency of your house cleaning visits. Often a company will charge you less per cleaning when you schedule more cleanings per month. The cost advantage rewards your loyalty, and also reflects the fact that more frequent cleanings make it easier to maintain a high level of cleanliness in your home. A housecleaning service may charge more for the first visit or for one-time services than for recurring cleanings.

How do I choose the best house cleaning service?

When searching for the best house cleaning service near you, consider the depth of your cleaning needs, your budget and the size and condition of your home. Read reviews from verified customers of any cleaning service that you’re looking to hire. Also, check out the reviewers’ photos and do background checks on reviewers to ensure they’re not employed by established cleaning firms or maid agencies. 

When viewing house cleaners on Thumbtack, you might see a Top Pro badge. This indicates that the service is one of the most popular and highly-rated professionals using the platform.

How do I prepare for a house cleaner?

There are several things you can do in preparation for a house cleaning to improve the efficiency and quality of the job. If you’re unfamiliar with a cleaning service, hiding and locking away any obvious valuables lying around can offer great peace of mind.

Depending on the preference of the cleaner, you may need to lock up your pets before the cleaners arrive. Washing dishes and decluttering the house allows a house cleaner to do their job more effectively. And leaving special notes for the cleaners about certain areas in your home that need attention is also helpful.

Ask house cleaners near you about their tips to help you prepare for their services. 

How much should you tip maids or cleaning services?

Tipping between 15 and 20 percent is considered an appropriate tip for maids and house cleaners — just as it would with a barber, food delivery driver or taxi operator. During the holidays, you might want to consider tipping a bit more. 

It’s important to note that some housekeeping and maid services might include a tip within the service fee, which should be explained to you in the service contract. Talk to house cleaners in your area to find out what's included in their fees.

Extremely unprofessional. Over an hour late, “forgot credit card reader” so cash was the only payment option which of course meant I was given a hand written receipt. House was satisfactorily cleaned so if you can deal with the other issues she will get your house clean.

Karen with Ed’s handyman and cleaning is absolutely fabulous! For a very affordable price she did a move out cleaning for my buyer clients and it turned out AMAZING! She spent multiple hours at the house to make sure it was as clean as a whistle before completing. My clients are overwhelmed with joy with the quality of work she provided. I would definitely recommend and use again!

I keep a pretty clean house, but hired Joana for the scrubbing of bathrooms, kitchen and floors and Master bedroom. We had to ask Joana to redo the bedroom furniture, it looked like she didn't even clean/dust it. Also, the whole job she did was just okay. I wont be hiring her again.

Kim is fantastic. She found someone that could come to my home at very short notice. They cleaned with confidence that they knew what they were doing. The crew was very friendly, and courteous. They did cleaning that I didn't know was supposed to be done and was never done before by someone who came into my home to clean. The crew took me through the house to make sure I was happy with what they did. Also Kim asked me to call her when the were finished which I did. I explained how happy I was with the job and they are coming back every two weeks to clean my house. Maybe one of these days I'll be able to have them come every week as they did such a wonderful job. Thank you so very much.

We hired MGM for our house cleaning. We talked to George on a Thursday night after 9pm. Even though it was late in the night, he was very accomodative and said will be able to send cleaners the very next day in the morning. He followed through on what he promised, and lo! We had 3 cleaners ringing our doorbell few mts before the scheduled time! The Cleaners did a very good job and the overall experience was great. I would hire them again.

HiClass maids did a fantastic job. They made the property look like a whole new place. The vinyl flooring looked so clean you would swear it was real wood. Thorough and paid attention to the little details. Would definitely recommend them for house keeping needs. Friendly as well as hard working!!

I wish you could do half star reviews because I feel like 4.5-4.75 stars is more adequate but I’m going to give 5. The people did a great job with communicating with me and working with me around my schedule. I had a flight cancelled and was delayed an entire half a day and they were able to still accommodate me and my needs. They put in 8-9 hours of work when really a move out clean was only suppose to be 2-3 and I apologize for that because the house I had them clean was a disaster, but they kept their word and didn’t change the pricing. They even offered to come back again and do more work if I wasn’t satisfied. Overall everything they offered in the move out clean was completed to my satisfaction. Great job.

Too bad there isn't an option for negative 100 stars. This is the most unprofessional, rude & dishonest person I have ever hired for a cleaning service. ana karen Urias rojas was contracted to perform a DEEP CLEAN, a move-out & preparation for this property going on the market that day after she "completed" her "service". I have no idea what she did in my house for the time she was there, but it most definitely did not involve any kind of DEEP CLEANING. She left water stains, dirt, soap residue, grime, mold, urine stains and filth everywhere. I was unfortunately not at the property at the time she did the cleaning, which means I have to trust in the integrity of the company I am dealing with, by letting her have access to my property and trust that she will do an honest job. She did not. Not only did she not do the job she was contracted to do, she blatantly lied to me on numerous occasions. Her excuse for not getting the dirt out of the bathtub "If I want it clean I will have to replace the Bathtub" Seriously? I had to hire someone else and incur an additional $150 to actually get the job done, interesting how they got all the areas she left filthy and untouched sparkling clean without complaint or hassle. My handyman, realtor, plumber and contractor were all there at some point that day and all noted how filthy she left the place. I contacted them with very obvious photos of the horrible condition she left my house in. Her attitude problem is atrocious and low class. Her excuse? " If I was hired to scrub something that had already been scrubbed and got the worst of it taken care of, I would have gotten it the same way" Excuse the horrible English, it's a direct quote. She never scrubbed ANYTHING, it is a blatant lie, and what an excuse and attitude to give a paying client. I sent them a formal demand for refund for breach of contract, and the unprofessional, excuse making attitude problem continued. She left my house before it was inspected and was on my case about "when do I get my money". I had to pay her on trust and her word, since I was not there. She clearly has no integrity whatsoever.

Larry and his team are incredible. I had a pretty big mess but he didn’t shy away at all. He was very communicative and professional and I could tell he had my best interest at heart. He even went above and beyond to make sure my house was in order. The work was for a fair price especially given how much time and work it required. I even had a hiccup in communication about carpet cleaning and Larry was very understanding. Overall I can’t recommend him enough and I think his work ethic, experience, and quality of the work really makes him stand out.
