I got married, so I've been paying every day since. Way too expensive for the poor job that's done.

Deep clean once a month or every other month. Best money I’ve ever spent

Bi weekly, 2800 sq ft, $140. Best money I spend. My house is always picked up and the kitchen is clean but these ladies do all the stuff we don’t wanna do on the weekends when we’re off.

4 Kids and 2 Working Parents

Fought my wife on it for a long time but currently pay $120 bi weekly. We keep house pretty clean and picked up as is but I no longer have to mop, dust, clean toilets/sinks, etc.

Its the best money I've ever spent! Weekends are free and wife is happy!

I was. But I’m grown so screw all that hospital corner shite. This is my house

Our daily standard is that we won’t be embarrassed if someone stops by, not “spotless”. We pay our team for “spotless” once a month. Keeps things going.

No I’m not a lazy POS. I can clean my own shite stains off my toilets. It takes 1 minute.

There is no profession where you work too much to take a little time out of each day to clean a little. It doesn’t need done all at once. Do a little per day. People are frickin lazy

Once a month two ladies come and do a deep clean. Blinds, curtains, floors, base boards, bathrooms, etc. We keep it clean on a daily basis but let them handle those jobs. Been about 8 months or so and totally worth the $190/mo.

I’ll pass on taking life advice from someone who shits on his toilet as opposed to in it.

We drop $180 a week on it (house is roughly 3300 sq ft), I think that’s on the expensive side, but we both trust the housekeeper and she’s good with the dogs, etc., so in my opinion it’s ultimately not worth rocking the boat over something I don’t have the time or desire to do myself.

Jealous of some of these prices. Ours comes once a month and it’s $350. They are thorough i will say that.

A take away from Loyola Law school, bi-weekly,,,,,, is a very poor statement as it can be used to describe twice a week or twice a month and be correct.

I have 2-3 peeps clean house for 2 hours every two weeks for a hundred bucks cash.

I do work 2-3 hours the night before they come to get the house in order

I pay her way too much, like half of my shite too much, and get way to little cleaning for my coats.
