The price of a cleaning is easy to look up. How the quote turns into an invoice, and when you are asked to pay, is the part people tend to wonder about. Here is the general order of things.
It Starts With a Quote
Before anything is billed, you get a quote based on your home size and the type of visit you need: standard, deep, move-in, move-out, or another service. Our standard cleaning starts at a $135+ minimum, deep cleaning starts at $210+, and move-in or move-out cleaning starts at $285+, with the final number depending on your home’s specific size and condition. If you want a deeper breakdown of how a quote is put together, our post on how to read a cleaning quote walks through the questions worth asking before you commit.
From Quote to Booking
Once you accept a quote and book a visit, the quote is based on the details you gave. That is why it helps to mention anything unusual about your home up front, such as heavy clutter, pets, or the type of clean you need.
When Billing Actually Happens
Payment timing is confirmed when you book. If you are unsure about it for your visit, ask before the appointment so there are no surprises.
Recurring Service Billing
If you are on a recurring schedule, whether weekly, biweekly, or monthly, recurring service is discounted off the standard rate: 15% for weekly, 10% for biweekly, and 5% for monthly. Confirm how the discount shows up on your invoices when you set up the plan.
If a Charge Looks Off
If an invoice does not match what you expected, contact us soon after the visit. A question about last week’s visit is easier to sort out than one about a visit from months ago.
Rescheduled or Skipped Visits
If you need to skip or reschedule a visit, that affects billing too, so tell us as early as you can. Our guide on what happens if you need to skip or reschedule a cleaning covers how that process typically works and what kind of notice is helpful.
Keeping Your Own Records
Even with a clear invoicing process on the company side, it is worth keeping your own simple record of visit dates and amounts, especially if you are managing a rental property or splitting cleaning costs with a co-parent, roommate, or property partner. A basic spreadsheet with the date, type of visit, and amount charged makes year-end recordkeeping easier and gives you something concrete to compare against if a question ever comes up.
Getting an Accurate Quote From the Start
The most common source of billing confusion is not the payment process itself, it is a quote that did not account for something about the home. The more accurately your home’s size, condition, and the type of visit are represented at booking, the more predictable your invoice will be every time. You can get started with an accurate quote through our online booking page.
Bottom Line
A quote comes first, then the booking, then the invoice. Giving accurate details about your home at the start is the surest way to keep the final amount close to the quote. For questions about billing, call 571-350-0866.
