Common Questions
Frequently Asked
Everything you need to know about Finished House Cleaning — pricing, scheduling, our team, and our standard.
Pricing
Pricing is based on your home's size (bedrooms and bathrooms), the type of service, and its current condition. We always quote before we book — no surprise charges, no hourly minimums.
Standard Cleaning starts at $155 for a 2-bedroom home and scales by size and condition. Recurring clients receive lower per-visit rates than one-time bookings.
Deep Cleaning ranges from $250 to $450 depending on home size and current condition. We provide a transparent quote before any work begins.
Yes. Weekly and bi-weekly clients receive lower per-visit rates because the home requires less time once it's on a maintenance rhythm.
Payment
Payment is due after your cleaning is complete and you're satisfied with the work. We accept credit card, debit card, Venmo, and Zelle.
No deposit is required for residential cleaning. Larger commercial or post-construction jobs may require a small deposit, which is always discussed up front.
Tipping is appreciated but never expected. If you'd like to tip, you can do so directly or have it added to your invoice.
Scheduling & Availability
We ask for 48 hours' notice for any changes. No contracts, no penalties — we earn your business on every single visit.
Yes, subject to availability. Same-day requests are best made in the morning. Visit our same-day page or call directly.
We're available Monday through Friday for most services, with Saturday availability for vacation rental turnovers and select bookings.
For Standard Cleanings, we usually have availability within 3–5 days. Deep Cleans book 1–2 weeks out. Same-day is sometimes possible — call to check.
Services & Cleaning Types
A Deep Clean is a top-to-bottom reset including baseboards, window sills, fans, light fixtures, cabinet exteriors, bathroom scaling, microwave inside and out, light switch plates, and every surface in between.
Deep cleans typically run 3 to 6 hours depending on the size and condition of your home. We schedule a generous window and never rush.
Standard maintains an already-clean home. Deep Cleaning resets a home from scratch — it's our most thorough service and is required as the first visit before starting a recurring maintenance schedule.
Yes. All new recurring maintenance clients begin with an initial deep clean. This resets the home to the Finished standard before ongoing upkeep begins — and it's what makes recurring maintenance genuinely effective rather than just surface-level.
Yes. Vacation rental turnover is one of our specialties. We provide linen swaps, hotel-style staging, and verification photos sent within an hour of completion.
Yes. We use HEPA-grade equipment and methodical top-down techniques specifically designed for fine drywall dust and construction residue.
Our Team
Yes. Every member of our team is fully background-checked, vetted, and insured before stepping into a client's home.
For recurring clients, we work hard to keep the same cleaner assigned — they learn your home's quirks, your preferences, and your standards. Consistency matters.
Every Finished cleaner is personally trained on our 28-point protocol before working independently. We invest in ongoing training and quality reviews.
Equipment & Supplies
Yes. We arrive fully equipped with professional-grade, eco-conscious products and tools. If you have specific products you prefer, just let us know.
Yes. All standard products we use are safe for households with children and pets. We can also use unscented or hypoallergenic products on request.
Absolutely. Just let us know when booking and we'll bring the right specialized products and techniques for your specific surfaces.
Satisfaction & Quality
We'll come back and reclean any area that doesn't meet our standard — free of charge, no questions asked. Let us know within 24 hours of the cleaning.
No. Most clients aren't home. Many leave a key or door code. Your home and belongings are treated with complete respect every visit.
