FAQ

ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS

Find answers to the most common questions about pricing, cleaning services, and bookings.

General

What’s included in a standard cleaning?

A standard clean covers your kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and living areas — surfaces wiped, floors vacuumed and mopped, bins emptied and beds made. It's designed to keep your home fresh between deep cleans.

How much does a cleaning cost?

Residential cleans start from $180 for a one-bedroom and $310 for a three-bedroom. Airbnb turnovers start from $220. Final pricing depends on the size and condition of your property, and travel charges may apply outside our core service areas. You'll always have a fixed quote before we start.

How long does a cleaning take?

Most standard cleans take two to four hours depending on home size and condition. Deep cleans, end-of-lease and first-time cleans take longer.

Are cleaners background-checked?

Yes. Every HouseKept cleaner is a direct employee — we never subcontract. All staff are police-checked, vetted and complete our in-house training program. We're fully insured, and our NDIS team holds the additional clearances required for that work.

Can I request the same cleaner every time?

Yes — if you book recurring cleanings we’ll assign the same cleaner whenever possible.

Cleaning & Equipment

Do I need to provide any supplies?

No. Our cleaners arrive fully equipped with all tools and products.

 Can I request specific products (e.g., unscented)?

Yes — just tell us in your booking notes and we'll adjust. If anyone in the home has allergies or sensitivities, let us know and we'll work around it.

Do you clean inside the oven, fridge, or cabinets?

These are part of our deep clean service and can be added to any booking. They're included as standard in our end-of-lease cleans.

Do you clean windows?

Interior window cleaning is available as an add-on. Exterior glass is included in our Airbnb outdoor clean-up service.

Can you handle pet hair?

Absolutely. Our equipment is built for it — we work in plenty of homes with dogs and cats.

Do you move furniture?

We move lightweight items to clean underneath. We don't shift heavy furniture, for our team's safety and to protect your floors.

Do you wash dishes or handle laundry?

Light dishwashing is included. Laundry isn't included as standard, though linen handling is part of every Airbnb turnover.

Do you clean after renovation or construction?

Yes. Our post-build clean covers dust removal, surfaces and floors once the trades have finished.

Booking & Policies

Can I book a one-time cleaning?

Yes — one-off, recurring and deep cleans are all available.

How far in advance should I book?

We recommend two to three days ahead. Same-week slots are often available, and we do our best to accommodate urgent Airbnb turnovers.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule?

You can reschedule or cancel up to 24 hours before your appointment at no charge.

What happens if the cleaner is late?

We'll contact you as soon as we know and adjust your window.

What if I’m not satisfied with the cleaning?

Get in touch within 24 hours and we'll send a team back to put it right — no questions asked.

Do I need to be home during the cleaning?

No. Most clients give us access via a key safe, lockbox or a key left with us. We'll lock up and secure the property when we're done.

How do I pay?

We invoice after each clean, payable by card or bank transfer through our online customer portal.

Do you offer recurring discounts?

Yes — weekly, fortnightly and monthly plans all include automatic savings on every clean.
