Stick to the process described below to launch your search for a local housekeeping service:

  • Provide your ZIP so we can match you with possible cleaning services in your area.
  • Answer a few questions about the housekeeping work or your residence.
  • Look over the list of prospective cleaning pros in your location.
  • Read feedback about these companies to help pare down your possibilities.

From there, proceed to the next steps and select a housekeeping business that matches your needs.

Popular Services Area Housekeeping Professionals Offer

Every home is unique, and each household has its own cleaning requirements. That’s why housekeeping companies offer such a wide range of services. Offerings differ from one-off deep cleanings or specialty cleanings to regular home cleanings. Knowing the types of services available can help you find the right company.

Everyday Cleaning Assistance

Cleaning businesses usually offer options to assist you in keeping up with cleaning on a daily basis. You might hire housekeepers to visit your home once a week or a few times a week to tackle everyday housekeeping needs including:

  • Vacuuming, mopping, and sweeping floors
  • Dusting or wiping down countertops and other surfaces
  • Spot cleaning windows and walls
  • Cleaning and sanitizing tubs, sinks, and toilets

Several home cleaning businesses may also help with jobs such as laundry or ironing.

In-Depth Cleaning Prior to a Big Day

Lots of people hire a home cleaning pro to prepare their residence or other areas before a monumental move, home sale, holiday, or event. For instance, you might hire a cleaning professional to clean your home before the arrival of Thanksgiving guests or to make sure your place looks its best before you place it on the market.

Deep home cleaning services tend to go beyond daily activities. Professional cleaners may:

  • Move large appliances, like refrigerators and stoves, to clean behind them.
  • Clean all walls, windows, and baseboards.
  • Use a pressure washer on walkways or driveways.
  • Take care of particularly dirty spots that regular home cleaning might miss.

Cleaning Services

Many home cleaning businesses offer specialty services. This can include using a pressure washer on a home’s exterior or cleaning lawns, swimming pools, or other features that aren’t included in the actual house.

Frequently asked questions

Self-Employed Housekeeper
  • Cheaper
  • Become familiar/comfortable with one person
  • More personalized service

  • No supervisor to report a bad experience to
Professional Cleaning Service
  • Insurance and bonding usually guaranteed
  • Reliability
  • More expensive
  • May have multiple people in your home

  • Keeping your home clean is a task that never seems to end, and it can take up most of your free time. Instead of spending your weekends mopping and dusting, consider hiring a housekeeper or cleaning service.
  • Unless a housekeeper performs specific duties regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency or your state or local government, no specific licensing is usually required to become a housekeeper. However, you’ll want to work with a professional who can pass a background check and has a current business license, liability insurance and a surety bond. You’ll also want to select someone who has the experience and can provide references, or someone who has received some professional training from a cleaning company.
  • Keep in mind when hiring any type of professional to clean your home that each state has its own requirements for licensing. You can use Home Advisor’s Contractor Licensing Requirements State-By-State guide to learn more. You can also learn more about the extensive screening process we use when allowing businesses to join our network.

When you hire a housekeeper or cleaning service, there are some questions you’ll need to ask to ensure you’re hiring the right person for the job. Writing down a list of services you want to be completed is a great place to start. This way, you’ll have all the information you need when you do interview a housekeeper or cleaning service, and they can provide you with accurate information and cost estimates.

What Services Do You Offer?

Find out upfront if the housekeeper or cleaning company offers the services you need, especially if you have requests that go beyond basic services.

How Do You Come Up With Your Rates?

Do they charge a flat fee each week? Do they charge an hourly rate? Some companies charge based on your home’s square footage or the number of bedrooms you have.

Do You Provide Your Own Supplies?

Many companies may provide some smaller cleaning supplies, but they may need to use your vacuum cleaner or mop. Others bring their own or none at all. And if you’re particular about the types of chemicals used in your home, you may want to ask what products they use or if they’re willing to use what you provide.

What Happens if Something Goes Wrong?

Anytime you have a professional in your home, something could go wrong. They could get hurt, or some of your property may be damaged. Ask what would happen in these scenarios — a well-qualified professional will have the necessary insurance and bonding to cover these situations.
