Perfect for Every Home Type
Primary Residences
Whether you live alone, have a busy family life, work from home or have pets — we offer flexible housekeeping plans to suit your lifestyle and needs.
Holiday & Second Homes
Our team keeps seasonal and holiday homes fresh, dust-free, and move-in ready, preventing issues such as insects, mould, and build-up during periods of vacancy.
Rental Properties
Landlords and property owners trust us to maintain properties between tenants and keep them in pristine condition.
Flats & Apartments
Small spaces still require expert care — we clean apartments of all sizes with the same thorough approach, often at lower costs due to reduced square footage.
Our Core Cleaning Services
Vacuuming
We vacuum all accessible areas, using HEPA-filtered equipment to remove fine dust, allergens, pet dander, and pollutants.
Dusting
Our reusable microfibre cleaning cloths trap dust and dirt effectively, reducing waste and improving air quality.
Mopping
Mopping helps sanitise floors, reduce allergens, prevent scratches, and restore shine — essential for maintaining high-traffic areas.
Mopping can help make your floor look shiny and new
Sanitising
We sanitise surfaces to eliminate bacteria and allergens, supporting a clean,
healthy home environment.
Introducing Our Recurring-Clean System
Our Recurring-Clean System is a brilliantly designed cleaning program we’ve refined over the years to suit clients’ needs.
Dividing our efforts into four zones, we keep everything consistently cleaned. Our Rotation System begins with two fully detailed cleans:
Initial Deep Cleans
-
Clean A – Detailed clean of kitchen
-
Clean B – Detailed clean of bathrooms
-
Clean C – Detailed clean of dining areas
-
Clean D – Detailed clean of living, & sleeping areas
After these first visits, we rotate deep-clean focus areas during routine cleans — delivering consistent, exceptional results. Full-home deep cleans can also be arranged upon request.
Room-by-Room Expertise
With our housekeepers regularly stopping by, you will be able to sleep soundly knowing sanitized surfaces surround you.
Bathrooms
We sanitise fixtures, scrub grout, wipe tiles, clean mirrors, remove hair from drains, and polish surfaces for a hygienic, sparkling finish.
Sleeping Areas
We dust, vacuum, mop where required, clean furniture carefully, and help create a calm, clean space for restful sleep.
Living Areas
We dust fixtures, clean furniture and surfaces, wipe frames and sills, and deep-clean floors to create a fresh, tidy environment.
Kitchens
We sanitise worktops, clean appliances, degrease surfaces, mop floors, and clean behind/under appliances where accessible — helping prevent pests and bacteria build-up.

Is Housekeeping Worth It?
In today’s busy world, where most of us juggle work, family commitments, commuting, and daily tasks, finding time to deep-clean your home several times a week is nearly impossible. After a long day, the last thing anyone wants to do is mop floors and scrub bathrooms.
Our professional housekeeping service keeps your home running smoothly and spotless, allowing you to relax and enjoy your free time. We take care of the labour-intensive tasks and bring our own supplies, so you can focus on the things that matter most.
Cleaning Your Home Yourself vs Hiring a Housekeeper
For many households, professional housekeeping is a valuable support service. We take on the heavy, time-consuming chores so you can reduce your weekly task list and enjoy a cleaner, more organised environment.
Many clients tell us that having a regular housekeeper motivates them to stay tidier between visits. Knowing that a professional team will routinely handle deep cleaning — from vacuuming and mopping to scrubbing and dusting — can be refreshing and motivating.
With a partnership approach, together we keep your home looking its best.

Housekeeping Services FAQ
How Much Does a Housekeeping Service Cost?
The cost of professional housekeeping varies depending on several key factors, including the size of your property, how often you require cleaning, and the level of activity in your home.
A larger family or a busy household with children and pets will naturally require more frequent housekeeping than a smaller or less frequently occupied property. Likewise, homes that are used daily or contain multiple living areas tend to accumulate dust and clutter more quickly, increasing the need for regular maintenance.
We also take into account factors such as:
-
The frequency of your cleaning schedule (weekly, fortnightly, monthly, etc.)
-
The extent of cleaning required (standard vs deep clean)
-
Any special requests or add-on services (such as oven, fridge, basement or window cleaning)
-
The condition and usage of the property (for example, a frequently rented home or holiday property)
At Best Help Cleaning, we believe in complete transparency. Before starting any service, we’ll provide a free, no-obligation quote tailored to your needs and budget — ensuring no hidden fees or unexpected costs.
What Are the Two Types of Housekeeping?
There are two main types of professional housekeeping: institutional and domestic.
-
Institutional housekeeping applies to commercial or short-term residential properties, such as hotels, resorts, serviced apartments, or Airbnb® rentals.
-
Domestic housekeeping applies to private, permanent residences such as houses, flats, or family homes.
At Best Help Cleaning, we proudly provide both. Whether you manage a rental property or simply want your home kept spotless, our trained professionals deliver the same high-quality, detail-oriented service across every environment.
Is There a Difference Between a Housekeeper and a Maid?
The terms housekeeper and maid are often used interchangeably. However, traditionally:
-
A maid focuses primarily on cleaning and tidying tasks.
-
A housekeeper provides a more comprehensive service, often including organisation, laundry, and general household management.
At Best Help Cleaning, no matter which term you prefer, you’ll receive the same exceptional standard of service — carried out by professional, fully trained staff who ensure your home is clean, fresh, and beautifully maintained.
Can I Customise My Maid Service to Focus on Specific Tasks?
Absolutely. Our housekeeping and maid services are completely customisable to suit your specific needs. You can choose:
-
Which rooms or areas to clean each visit
-
The level of detail (standard or deep clean)
-
How often you’d like us to visit
For instance, you may prefer weekly cleaning of your kitchen, bathrooms, and living room, while scheduling bedrooms or guest areas less frequently. We offer full flexibility so your cleaning plan perfectly matches your household’s routine and lifestyle.
Can I Reschedule My Housekeeping Appointment?
Yes, of course. If you need to change your appointment, simply give us a call and our team will be happy to assist you.
We kindly ask for at least 48 hours’ notice when rescheduling so we can adjust our cleaning calendar accordingly. This helps ensure our team and other clients are properly accommodated.
