Housekeeping services in Melbourne

Housekeeping services in Melbourne run on the same weekly or fortnightly schedule as a regular clean, with the checklist shaped around keeping the household ticking over rather than a once-off reset.

Alongside the standard rooms, your housekeeper can make the beds and change the linen, load and unload the dishwasher, put a load of laundry through when a washing machine is available, keep the place tidy - and even collect your dry cleaning if it's within a five-minute walk and the booked hours allow. You set the priorities for each visit and the cleaner works through them in that order.

Maid services, housekeeping and domestic cleaning are all booked the same way: enter your postcode, choose your hours and frequency, and keep the same cleaner where possible.

Did you know:

According to a 2024 study, the average Australian spends around 3 to 5 hours every day on household tasks such as meal preparation and clean-up, laundry, and general house cleaning. Over the course of a year, that adds up to roughly 1.5 to 2.5 months spent on domestic work alone - time that could be used for rest, family, hobbies or simply switching off.

Instead of letting cleaning dominate your schedule, you can reclaim those hours and enjoy life more by leaving the hard work to our reliable, professional cleaning services.

A: House cleaning covers everyday domestic tasks such as dusting, vacuuming, mopping, bathroom cleaning, kitchen surfaces, bedrooms, living areas and emptying small bins. You can customise the checklist based on your priorities.
Q: What does a general clean include?
A: A general clean - our regular house clean - covers the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and living areas on every visit: surfaces and benchtops wiped, floors vacuumed and mopped (carpets vacuumed), mirrors and fixtures cleaned, toilets, showers, baths and sinks cleaned, bins emptied, beds made or linen changed, the dishwasher loaded or unloaded, and the microwave and oven wiped inside and out. Windows are included inside and out wherever they're reachable without a ladder. Professional carpet steam cleaning and upper-level exterior windows are separate services you can add to the booking.

Q: Can I book weekly house cleaning?
A: Yes. You can book weekly house cleaning for busy homes or choose fortnightly cleaning for lighter maintenance.
Q: How often should house cleaning be done?
A: Most Melbourne homes book regular house cleaning weekly or fortnightly - weekly for busy family homes and homes with pets, fortnightly for couples and smaller apartments. A catch-up clean before the first visit brings the home up to the standard the regular visits then maintain. Weighing it up? Here are the benefits of regular cleaning.

Q: What's not included in a standard house clean?
A: Professional carpet steam cleaning (your regular cleaner vacuums carpets), exterior windows on upper levels or anywhere a ladder would be needed, and hand-washing clothes.

Established mould on walls, ceilings or wet areas needs professional mould removal in Melbourne.

A: Yes. You can prioritise bathrooms, floors, kitchens, dusting, pet areas or other tasks. You can also rotate extras across visits, such as skirting boards one week and interior windows another week.
