What changes the price
- Home size, bedrooms and bathrooms
- Deep clean vs. regular upkeep
- How often you book
- Pets and add-ons like ovens, fridges or windows
- Where you live. Local labor costs, demand and travel time move prices up or down from the national average.
How to pay less
- Book recurring cleanings. Repeat visits usually cost $5 to $10 less than a one-time clean.
- Pick up clutter before the cleaner arrives so their time goes to cleaning, not tidying.
- Skip rooms you rarely use, or have them cleaned less often.
- Ask exactly what a standard clean includes. Inside the oven, fridge and windows are often extras.
- Compare at least two or three quotes for the same scope. Pros on Job Hound never pay for leads, so no lead fee is built into their price.

FAQ
House Cleaning cost questions
How much does house cleaning cost?
House cleaning costs $80 to $150 per visit for a 2-bedroom, 2-bath home, or $25 to $40 an hour for an individual cleaner. Bigger homes, deep cleans and extra tasks cost more, and recurring service lowers the price per visit.
How much does a deep clean cost compared to a regular clean?
A deep clean adds work like fixtures, inside windows, tubs and grout, so it costs more than a standard visit. Extra tasks typically add $15 to $20 per room or per hour.
Is it cheaper to hire an individual or a cleaning company?
Individual cleaners often charge $25 to $40 an hour. A two-person team costs about twice as much per hour but finishes in about half the time.
How long does it take to clean a house?
A cleaner covers roughly 750 square feet an hour, so a typical 2-bed, 2-bath home takes a few hours for one person.
Should I tip my house cleaner?
Tipping is common but not required. Many people tip after a one-time or deep clean, or give a holiday tip to a regular cleaner.
