"On May 8, 2025, I engaged Celia’s Cleaning Service for a house cleaning. Celia, her husband, and their daughter arrived at 8:00 AM, an hour late from their scheduled 7:00 AM arrival. I advised them to commence cleaning in the kitchen and living room, followed by the second bedroom, main bedroom, and bathrooms. Additionally, painters were present in the den, and I ensured they were not obstructed during their work. Prior to the cleaning, Celia repeatedly expressed her gratitude to me for the opportunity, highlighting her 150-house cleaning business and the overwhelmingly positive reviews she received. She then proceeded to clean while standing on buckets, posing a safety risk. Celia inquired about the availability of old ladders from the painters, requesting that they be delivered to my residence for her use. She also repeatedly showed me every item in the house, including numerous small objects. The husband and daughter’s contributions were minimal. They only performed a few tasks when requested, such as laundry, where they required my assistance with the washing machine, and vacuuming the bedrooms. However, they used their own vacuum, resulting in significant damage to our newly installed carpets. During the meal, they ate at the kitchen island and requested a protein drink from the refrigerator. My husband arrived home at 8:00 PM, only to find that they were still present. Our house in Tracy Lakes is immaculate, and the initial cleaning task list was relatively small. Unfortunately, Celia’s actions resulted in significant damage to our carpets. As per our original verbal agreement, the service fee was $400. My husband paid the payment to ensure their departure. Notably, they requested payment in cash. Our pristine white carpets have been severely damaged due to a company you have permitted on your website, despite claiming to be a five-star establishment. The cleaning crew we engaged was exceptionally peculiar, and we are now experiencing significant anxiety. To address this issue, we have to ask the guard to put them on a “do not enter” list. Even after all that time being here, they still did not do all of the house, and it is only 1800 sf"

"This company requires you to confirm the appt you already booked within 24 hours but they won’t tell you confirming is required until 2 hours before they need the confirmation. They cancelled my appt and I have an event at my home tomorrow. I can’t believe a company would cancel last minute like this. We had a whole back and forth conversation and already confirmed the appt when we made it last week. I have a newborn baby and don’t have time to be checking my texts multiple times a day. They sent me a text yesterday morning letting me know that they require confirmation within 24 hours. This was 2 hours before the 24 hour mark. They basically set me up to fail with that one. Pretty much every business sends confirmation or reminder texts and emails but I’ve never had to confirm an appt I already scheduled."

FAQs for house cleaning projects in San Jose, CA
There are several things to know before hiring a house cleaner to do any work on your home.
What services do they offer?
Do they work alone or with a company?
Do they have any references you can check?
Do they conduct background checks on employees?
When can they get you an estimate?
Do they have insurance?
Do they offer a guarantee?
How do they set rates?
Do they bring cleaning supplies and equipment?
Do you need to be home when they clean?
What arrangements do you need to make for pets?
Is there a written contract?
The average cost to hire a house cleaner is between $30 and $50 per hour. Costs vary depending on house size, the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and the type of cleaning you want. Deep cleaning will be more expensive since it requires more time and effort to move furniture and clean hard-to-reach areas compared to a standard cleaning session.
Although tipping is not a requirement, many people tip house cleaners around 10% to 15% of the final cleaning cost. Some people tip as much as 20% or more, but it’s up to your discretion. Rather than tipping each cleaning session, you can also tip monthly or give the house cleaner a holiday bonus. There are no rules for tipping, but if your house cleaner did a great job it’s encouraged.
The average house cleaner cost is around $180, which should cover about four hours of work. However, each project is different and costs can range from $100 to $1,000, depending on the house size and the cleaning needed. Other cost factors can include your location and what level of cleaning you want. Standard or basic cleaning may include vacuuming, dusting, and disinfecting the kitchen and bathrooms. Deep cleaning costs about twice as much and often includes cleaning behind and underneath furniture, washing windows, and polishing hard-to-clean surfaces. Emergency cleaning, extreme cleaning, and holidays also impact pricing. Move-in and move-out cleaning typically cost more, too, because of the extensive, whole-house cleaning involved.
No, house cleaners do not necessarily need to be certified or licensed. Each state has its own requirements for licensing and certifications for companies, but most states don't require any special training to clean a home. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local house cleaner guidelines.
