What's a reasonable price for house cleaning?

With an eco-friendly clean, you might expect to pay a few dollars more per hour than the average cost of a standard clean which may set you back anything from $30 per hour to $60+ depending on the needs of your specific job.

The cost of an eco-friendly cleaner may vary depending on factors such as the size of your property, how many rooms you need cleaning, the tasks and whether the cleaning service is booked for a weekday or weekend.

Once you've settled for an eco-cleaning service, ask them to come to your property to give you a tailored quote for the services you require.

Expect to find that you're charged more for any additional services – such as cleaning the windows, cupboards and carpets. So, ask for a full quote upfront to avoid any nasty surprises when it comes to getting your bill.

How should I compare eco-friendly cleaning services?

Generally, it's a good idea to look for a range of credible online reviews, qualifications and accreditation.

Speaking about her experience of finding an eco-cleaning service, Wollongong resident Zoe told Finder:

"I found the process to be a little bit challenging. I was able to find some cleaners online after having had some luck via a Facebook Mum's group. After I was signposted to a couple of local recommendations, only one of these turned out to be specifically eco-friendly."

Zoe added: "To get a better range of quotes I'm looking further afield in the Illawarra and have asked some companies if they'll be able to come to our property."

Frequently asked questions

What is included in a deep clean?

A deep clean will reach the deeper grime and dirt in your home and can include areas which aren't traditionally covered by a regular clean. Examples can include cleaning behind large appliances and underneath kitchen sinks.

As with any type of clean, you can only expect a cleaner to complete the tasks that have been pre-agreed. Ultimately, it's up to you to be clear in your communication with the worker(s) so that you know what you can expect to get.

Do organic cleaners really work?

The effectiveness of any cleaning product is up for debate but, generally speaking, many high-quality disinfectants made with plant-based ingredients can be as effective as chemical-based cleaners.

How long does it take to clean a 3-bedroom house?

It could take anything between two and five hours to clean a 3-bedroom house. The time will vary depending on the size of your house, how detailed you want the clean to be and how many cleaners actually do the job.
