Base Rate or Charge More for a Deep Clean? (House Cleaning)



Base rate or charge more for a deep clean? It’s a fair question if you’re new to house cleaning. Deep cleaning takes far longer than a maintenance clean. And how much to charge depends on your ability to assess the job and your skills as a maid.

How to bid a deep clean is agreeing on the client’s priorities and then giving fair job estimates at a rate you both can live with. Prices for house cleaning vary, as do the cleaning tasks a client is willing to pay for. Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru, covers all this and more pricing tips.

Today’s #AskaHouseCleaner sponsor is Savvy Cleaner Training (for house cleaners and maids.)
