bi-weekly. $125

They're off the books if you know what I mean, or else it would be more.

We used to have someone come in 3 days a week when we had kids in the house. Now we have a cleaning lady come every 2 weeks and pay her $200. If she brings a friend, she takes about 2 hours. By herself she is there 3-4 hours. We have a 2 story, 3600 sq foot home and a dog. She waxes floors, cleans windows, etc...

helps my wife is stay at home...and has OCD...also I don't want to know how much it would cost a month for a 3.3K sqft house to get cleaned

Too add to this thread, we have deep cleaned two houses when we were preparing to sell them...was about $150

Yes. Seems like biweekly now but last I knew it was 3 on, 1 off. For specifics or additional inquiries, please contact the office of my SVP of Home Operations.

No because I’m not lazy or do I need people to clean my own house for me. That’s what a wife is for.

We have this older, semi-retired lady that cleans my office/ business once a week and cleans my home once a month. The wife and I keep up with the day to day at home, but she come in for the deeper cleaning, dusting and mopping.

She's incredible and I do not look forward to the day she is done with cleaning.

ETA: $125 for once every 4 weeks, at home. $400 monthly for the office/ business.

Yes.

$165 bi-weekly. Down from $220 bi-weekly.

A tandem of Maids ventured off and started their own business and poached several customers from a large cleaning company we used, including our household as clients.

You can call him a wife all you want but he’ll never actually be one.

To an extent...yes

always love these threads. we have 3 dogs and a cat and a toddler and need to clean the house everyday or we both go crazy. if we waited every two weeks, my wife and I would go nuts. Even for a deep clean


Well whose fault is all of that?

But yeah, house stays picked up. But it saves us from having to dust, mop the floors, clean the toilets, etc, etc.
