"Our condo building decided to have Bella Custom Cleaning out to clean our air duct vents today. The two young gentlemen who came to do our clean were respectful of my property and extremely professional. I wish I would have gotten their names, they were great!! We had a few quotes and this company had competitive pricing and great reviews, so we decided to go for it. Very happy we did, we will be using Bella Custom Cleaning again! Pricing shown is for one unit, approx. 1,000 sq ft., 12 vents."

"Exceptional Service Every Time! Janice and Katie from Clean As a Whistle are truly outstanding. They are professional, friendly, efficient, and incredibly thorough. Every other week when they clean my three-story, four-bathroom home, it never feels like just another routine cleaning. They take a systematic, detailed approach moving furniture, cleaning hard-to-reach areas, and making sure every room is left fresh, tidy, and spotless. What I appreciate most is their willingness to go the extra mile. Whenever I ask them to tackle an additional task or pay special attention to a particular area, they are always accommodating and handle it with a positive attitude. Their consistency, attention to detail, and pride in their work are evident during every visit. Clean As a Whistle is a great organization that clearly knows how to hire exceptional people. I highly recommend Janice and Katie to anyone looking for dependable, high-quality cleaning services."

"Bubbles Window Cleaning did a remarkable job on our windows. We recently had the house washed and the residue left by the cleaning solution left our windows looking horrible. Bubbles (specifically Alberto) were able to clean the windows to a sparkling finish. I would highly recommend Bubble Window Washing to anyone. I am more than pleased with their services."

House Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

Although never required, tipping shows house cleaners how much you appreciate their work. If you are satisfied with their consistent service, consider tipping a thoughtful way of showing appreciation. This is especially true if the same cleaners continuously provide the services, which means you can tip them for each visit, monthly, or annually, depending on your preference.

Incorporating garage disinfection into your annual household cleaning routine is essential. Your garage constitutes a significant segment of your home and necessitates comparable attention to cleanliness, much like other living spaces. This becomes particularly vital since garages frequently remain overlooked and accumulate dirt and dust over time due to the tendency to fill up with old furniture, sporting equipment, boxes, and more.

House cleaners typically charge by the hour, with average rates ranging from $40 to $50 per hour per cleaner. The total cost depends on factors like the size of your house, the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and the specific services you request.

A standard cleaning session generally costs between $120 and $240. However, the price can be significantly higher for very large homes or comprehensive services. Keep in mind that add-on services, such as cleaning windows or ovens, will cost extra.

Deep cleaning is more expensive than a standard session—often at least twice the price—because it involves more time and effort, such as moving furniture to clean underneath and reaching difficult areas. Due to the cost, some recommend hiring professionals for seasonal deep cleans while managing regular weekly or biweekly upkeep yourself.

A few times per week, take a damp, soapy cloth and wipe down your faucet. Pay close attention to the spout, wiping it thoroughly to remove any mineral deposits. Also, once a month, wipe the cloth with a vinegar and water solution. After application, run your water to rinse the spout thoroughly, freeing any debris that might be hanging on.

Whether your carpet cleaner is self-employed or not doesn’t need to play a major factor in tipping. Some larger cleaning companies prefer you don’t tip their employees, but if the cleaner is self-employed that isn’t a concern. Tipping isn’t required for this service, so feel free to use it as an appreciation for their service and hard work.
