Regular house cleaning plans – weekly or fortnightly

A regular clean works best when it fits your week, not the other way round. Choose how often your cleaner visits, tell us what matters most, and we’ll keep the same domestic cleaner on your booking wherever possible.

Weekly house cleaning

Best for families, busy households and homes with pets. A weekly visit keeps kitchens, bathrooms and floors under control before mess has a chance to build up, so every clean stays quick and thorough.

Fortnightly cleaning

A popular choice for couples, singles and smaller homes. Every second week your cleaner resets the kitchen, bathrooms and living areas, and you keep up the light daily tidying in between.

Cleaning done your way

Every home is different, so your cleaner works from your own priority list as well as our checklist. Want the oven or fridge done this time or the interior windows and blinds wiped? Add it when you book. Prefer visits twice a week or once a month? Just ask.

One-off house cleaning – for homes that have fallen behind

Flexible regular cleaning plans built around you

Not ready for a regular plan, or back from a busy stretch? A one-off house clean is a longer, single visit that brings a lived-in home back to a level your regular cleaner can maintain. It covers the same rooms as a regular clean, with extra time for the build-up. Book it as a once-off reset, then move onto a weekly or fortnightly plan if you like.

If the home needs inside-cupboard, grout or appliance-level detail, book a deep clean instead.

Regular Domestic Cleaning Services

Domestic cleaning, house cleaning or housekeeping – which do you need?

Just one – they’re different names for the same service. Whether you search for a domestic cleaner, a house cleaner, home cleaning or housekeeping, the job is a recurring clean of a lived-in home: kitchens, bathrooms, floors, dusting and tidying, on a weekly or fortnightly schedule. If your home needs a top-to-bottom reset first, start with a one-off catch-up clean or a deep clean. Moving out? You need an end of lease clean instead.

Pair your regular cleaning with these services

 

Carpet cleaning

Hot water extraction gets into the carpet fibres to lift dirt, allergens and stains – easy to book on the same week as your regular clean.

Oven cleaning

Grease and grime build up fast between your regular cleans. Our oven cleaning experts remove burnt-on residue from even the hardest-to-reach areas using eco-friendly solutions – leaving your oven spotless, hygienic, and safe for cooking.

End of lease cleaning

Moving out comes with enough stress without worrying whether your bond will be returned in full. Our end of lease service goes well beyond a regular clean.

Window cleaning

Streaky, grimy windows can make even a freshly cleaned home look dull from the inside and out. Using purified water and a water-fed pole system and we clean windows up to 2nd storeys high.

Upholstery cleaning

Sofas, armchairs and fabric dining chairs absorb spills, body oils and dust over time – areas a regular clean only wipes over. Our upholstery service steam-cleans sofas and armchairs with a method matched to the fabric.

Tile and grout cleaning

Grout lines in bathrooms and kitchens trap mould, soap scum and grime that a mop just pushes around. We use specialised tools to scrub deep into the grout and restore tiled surfaces to a properly clean finish.

Frequently asked questions

Q: How often should a house be cleaned?
A: Most homes stay on top of things with a weekly clean; smaller or quieter households often find fortnightly is enough. Homes with kids, pets or allergy sufferers usually suit weekly.
Q: What’s included in a regular domestic clean?
A: Every visit covers the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and living areas: benchtops and appliance exteriors wiped, the dishwasher loaded or unloaded, sinks, toilets and showers cleaned, floors vacuumed and mopped, soft furnishings vacuumed, surfaces, door handles and skirting boards wiped, and bins emptied. Your cleaner can also follow your own priority list.
Q: Will I get the same cleaner each visit?
A: Yes, wherever possible – we keep the same cleaner on your regular booking so they learn your home. If your cleaner is away, we’ll let you know as soon as possible and arrange a replacement cleaner.
Q: Can I reschedule a regular appointment?
A: Yes – let us know at least 48 hours before the visit and we’ll move it. Late changes may mean a different cleaner is assigned.
Q: Can I pause or cancel my regular cleaning?
A: Yes. Pause, skip or cancel with 7 days’ notice – there are no lock-in contracts and no exit fees.
Q: Can I request a different cleaner?
A: Yes. If your cleaner isn’t the right fit, tell us and we’ll assign someone new.
Q: Are your domestic cleaners police-checked and insured?
A: Yes. Every cleaner is police-checked before their first job, and every visit is covered by $20M public liability insurance.
Q: Do I need to be home during the clean?
A: We recommend it. Being home lets you go over your priorities with your cleaner at the start and check the results before they leave.
Q: Do your cleaners bring cleaning products?
A: The cleaning detergents and equipment can be added to the final price of your booking or if you’d rather the cleaner can use your own products, just tell us when you book.
Q: What’s the difference between a regular clean and a deep clean?
A: A regular clean keeps a home that’s already in good shape tidy, week to week. A deep clean is a one-off, top-to-bottom job – inside appliances, grout, skirting boards and built-up grime – best done before you start a regular plan.
Q: Do you use eco-friendly cleaning products?
A: Yes, on request – ask for non-toxic, eco-friendly products when you book if you have children, pets or sensitivities.
Q: Which Melbourne suburbs do you cover?
A: We clean homes across greater Melbourne, from the inner city to the outer east, west and south-east. Check prices and availability for your suburb online in under a minute.
Q: Do you charge more on weekends or public holidays?
A: No – weekend and public-holiday visits cost the same as weekdays.
Q: How do you make sure your cleaners can be trusted?
A: Every cleaner is police-checked, insured and monitored by our quality control supervisors.
Q: What happens if something is damaged during a clean?
A: Contact us as soon as you notice any damage. Once it’s confirmed, we’ll do our best to put it right in your favour.
Q: What if I’m not happy with a clean?
A: It’s rare, but tell us and we’ll arrange a replacement cleaner or an on-site visit from our Quality Control Manager to make sure your home is cleaned to the highest standard.
