Maid for Cleaning

02/06/2026

Ever wonder what comes with me on a typical cleaning day?

Here’s a peek inside my work bag! My day-to-day essentials include vinegar soap water (perfect for bathrooms), Dawn dish soap, orange wood treatment, Vim for sinks and tubs, stainless steel cleaner, floor cleaner, toilet bowl cleaner (yes, it is only used for toilets!!) plenty of microfibre rags, scrub brushed & pads and my trusty putty/spackle tool and tooth brush for those little details that make a big difference.

If you’re booking a deep clean, please let me know ahead of time so I can pack specialty products that aren’t part of my regular kit — like oven cleaner, specific hardwood floor products, or even your preferred cleaners if you have favorites!

And before anyone asks… the ferret is NOT part of the cleaning package 😂 (and yes, the rags were washed after this photo!).

✨ Maid for Cleaning is all about showing up prepared so your home gets the care it deserves. Ready to get on the schedule? Send me a message! ✨

Why I Charge $35/Hour — A Transparent Breakdown

I’d like to gently address a comment I hear from time to time:
“That seems expensive for cleaning if you don’t have formal certification.”

I understand where that thought comes from, so here’s some transparency around what that $35/hour actually covers, and why it’s fair.

I am a business, not just a person with a mop.
When you hire me, you’re not paying “take-home pay.” You’re paying for a professional service that comes with real costs and responsibility.

Here’s where that $35/hour goes:

Supplies & Equipment
Quality cleaners, tools, vacuum maintenance, microfiber replacement, etc.

Transportation Costs
Fuel, vehicle maintenance, insurance, and wear and tear from driving job to job.

Business Expenses
• Insurance & liability coverage
• Licensing & registration
• Booking, communication, and admin time (unpaid hours clients don’t see)
• Taxes (self-employed taxes are significantly higher)

Experience & Reliability
While I may not hold a formal “certificate,” I bring:
• Hands-on experience
• Efficiency (jobs done properly, not rushed or sloppy)
• Trustworthiness in your home
• Consistency you don’t get from bargain cleaners

Local, Independent, Human
Supporting my business means supporting a local mom working to provide stability and quality care for her family. Not cutting corners or exploiting underpaid labor.

Perspective Matters
Tradespeople, nurses, and other professionals aren’t paid just for tools or certificates — they’re paid for responsibility, reliability, physical labor, and skill. Cleaning is no different.

✨ $35/hour is not “absurd.” It’s sustainable, fair, and standard for insured, independent residential cleaning.

I’m always happy to answer respectful questions — but I’ll never apologise for charging what it takes to do good work and stay in business.

Thank you to my amazing clients who value quality and transparency. 💙

✨ Why Move-Out & Move-In Cleans Take Time (and Why It’s Worth It!) ✨

A move-out or move-in clean isn’t your typical “quick tidy.”
These jobs take hours because they’re a top-to-bottom, every-nook-and-cranny kind of clean. 🧽

When a home is empty, we can see (and need to clean) EVERYTHING — even the spots that get missed during regular cleaning:
✅ Inside & outside of cupboards and drawers
✅ Behind, under and interior of all appliances
✅ Walls, baseboards, trim, doors, and light switches
✅ Windowsills, tracks, and blinds
✅ Bathrooms, top to bottom
✅ Carpets and floors in every room

Unlike a standard clean, nothing is “surface only” — it’s all deep cleaning, which means scrubbing, sanitizing, and restoring the home so it’s fresh and ready for the next chapter.

So if your cleaner says it’ll take 8–12 hours, (and sometimes more) they’re not overcharging — they’re making sure the place is spotless.
✨ The result? A home that looks (and smells!) brand new. ✨
