100 once a week

Then once month we want them to clean all the windows in the house, inside and outside.
This will be extra we are waiting on a price

She is there a good 2.5-3 hours
sometimes she is alone, sometimes she has someone with her

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-Two ques?

$70.00 every two weeks.
We have been using her for a number of years I think she probably charges a little more for new customers.

Yesterday she was here from 8:45 until about 11:30 but we were gabbing for a bit so maybe cut 20 -30 minutes off that time.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

When I had a cleaning lady.....

She was $50 for kitchen, LR, bathroom, bedroom and computer room. DH gave her $60 the first time and we stuck with that price.

She came every two mondays.

She was here about 1 1/2-2 hours I think (honestly I never timed her).

She does everything I ask her to do and doesn't blink an eye. She is VERY trust worthy (she returned a diamond necklace I thought I lost at work but it turned up behind a door that I never close).

My mom started using her too and she does every other 2 weeks as well and she is there about 3 hours. No idea what the price is, but her house is MUCH larger than mine.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

$85 every other week. She is there about 3-3.5 hours.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

I live in an apt (2 bedrroms 1 bath) and I pay $50. She used to come twice a month but we cut back to once a month since Its just my Dh and I right now, but once we have kids Ill prob go back to 2x a month. I think she's there for about 2 hours.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

$80 once every 3 weeks.

She is here for SERIOUSLY...8 hours every time!!

She is AMAZING!! Moves EVERY bit of furniture, cleans the WALLS...she leaves NO stone unturned!

I have had Emilia for 4 years now though. I know she charges a bit more now.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

I used pay $70/week and she came twice a month. I think she would be here around 4 hours. Me and DH would be @ work.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

$100 a month

every other week

6-7 hours and my house is pretty clean to begin with (well, besides the kitchen floor).

My mom has been using her for about 10 years, I just started using her a few months ago. Let me know if you want her info.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

I have someone coming tomorrow for the first time. Its 20/hr and she'll do whatever I ask of her (windows, clean out fridge, etc).

She's coming tomorrow for a deep clean (6 hours) and then probably every 2 weeks for 3-4 hours.

She's part of a service - Home Sweet Home Cleaning - we'll see how it works out.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

I have a service, so it's usually 2-3 people (same people each time.)

$85 every week

They're here about 2 hours. My house is pretty small and they don't have to clean the dining room, mud room or basement.

I'm not happy with them. I just haven't gotten around to looking for someone else or another service.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

50.00 a week

every week

1 1/2 - 2 hrs

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

Our cleaning lady comes 2x per month. She charges us $70 each time, and is here about 3-3 1/2 hours.

I think the cost is insanely low because we have a 5-bedroom house.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

we have a live-in nanny/housekeeper who cleans every week, but before that we paid 90 every two weeks.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

$75 dollars every two weeks. 3 people came to the house. They were there for an hour and a half. We were not happy with the job they did. we will look into another one after we remodel the house.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

Remember i'm in Michigan....I have Custom Maids. biweekly for $50 a time. 2-3 woomen come and it lasts roughly an hour.

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

Deb - I love my cleaning people - let me know if you want their number....about 15 friends/family use them now. It is a husband and a wife!

For my house - which you've seen - they charge 80.00 It's 4bs/2bth. They were going to charge me 70.00 but my crazy mother said "No, we'll pay 80"

They get to my house at 8am and leave at about 11am. I have them every other week!

The very first cleaning they do they charge more (I think I paid 115) and they were here for about 8 hours. They do everything!

Re: If you have a cleaning lady-3 questions (edited)

We have 3 ladies (sometimes 2) come every other week and have them clean 1 out of 3 brs (we don't really use the other 2), 2 1/2 baths, den, kitchen, living room, basement (once a month) and they are here usually about 2-2 1/2 hours, I believe..we pay $70 w/o basement, $75-$80 with basement (it's in sections..don't ask..haha) They do a nice job...we've been using them a couple of months, so I'm seeing what happens..it's worth it, though...
