Top Housekeepers related questions

A housekeeper can be responsible for a range of household tasks, from cleaning and organising, to laundry and cooking.
A housekeeper should be competent in completing basic household chores to a high standard. They should have meticulous attention to detail and be able to follow instructions.
Yes. Some household tasks may require trade specialists - this is generally beyond the skills of a housekeeper. Most housekeepers also focus on areas inside the home - not outside/garden maintenance.

Some people have a daily housekeeper, others get help in once a week, once a month, or just on special occasions to help them get caught up.

Housekeeping agencies are popular, but they don’t offer as much flexibility and control. Hiring a housekeeper directly means you can choose your preferred housekeeper, based on ratings, reviews, and skillsets.

The cost of housekeeping depends mainly on how many hours you’d like your housekeeper to work. On Airtasker, people typically spend $60-$150 on housekeeping services.

What does a housekeeping service include?

Housekeeping services can include one-off services or regular domestic tasks (daily, weekly, or fortnightly), from cleaning and cooking to even home maintenance. Your housekeeper will bring along all the products and equipment they need to clean and maintain your home - all you need to do is tell them what you need done. Here’s how they can help:


Cleaning 

The most common housekeeping service involves cleaning. This could include general cleaning, like vacuumingmoppingdusting, and bathroom cleaning. Or it might include detail cleaning tasks like couchcurtainfloorfridge, and rug cleaning. Depending on the number of tasks you’d like your housekeeper to complete, they may clean for just an hour, or up to the entire day. Your housekeeper will discuss a time that’s convenient for you, the tasks you need done, and the timeframe it should take to complete these tasks. If needed, they can bring their own cleaning supplies, like a vacuum cleaner and feather duster. 


Organising and tidying 

Many housekeepers offer professional organising services, where they help organise and tidy all areas of your home. This includes desks, filing cabinets, stationery, linen, wardrobes, toys, kitchen cupboards, garage interiors, and more. They’ll pull out all the items, organise them by category, and help you choose what you should keep, donate, or bin. They’ll also help by recommending suitable storage solutions to help you keep your home tidy for longer.


Cooking 

Some housekeepers are available to help with cooking in your home. They might prepare a few snacks, or help prep several meals ahead of time so you don’t have to worry about cooking. Your housekeeper will present menu and recipe options for you to choose from and use your ingredient and kitchen supplies to cook everything in your kitchen. Once they’re done, they’ll store the freshly cooked food (with heating instructions) and clean up any mess.


Laundry

Washing and ironing starting to pile up? Housekeepers can help by putting on loads of washing, hanging clothes, loading the dryer, folding washing, ironing, and even putting it away. They’ll check the care labels to ensure appropriate washing/drying methods are used before they start the process. With some extra help, you’ll be all caught up on the laundry in no time.


Home maintenance

Many housekeepers are skilled in basic household maintenance tasks. But if they’re unable to do the job themselves, they’ll help organise and oversee skilled contractors who can help do repairs and maintenance in and around your home.

Garage Sorting & Organisation

$160

Banyo QLD 4014, Australia

19th Feb 2026

Organisation Expert Needed – Garage/Under House Declutter (Additional work may be available) We’re seeking an experienced organisation expert to help us tackle the clutter in our garage/under-house storage area. Over the last few years we’ve done a rushed downsizing and sold our previous home, which has resulted in boxes and boxes of mixed items being stored under our highset house. It’s now at the point where we need a practical, hands-on professional to help us sort, categorise, and create order before proper decluttering can begin. What the job will involve: Going through numerous packed boxes Collating like items into logical sections Creating organised zones/categories that make sense Working alongside me as decisions are made about: Repacking in a more functional order Relocating items to different areas Creating discard/donate piles This will be a collaborative process — I’ll provide guidance as we go, but I need someone confident in leading the physical organisation side of things. Environment: Garage space under a highset home Expect dust, dirt, and the occasional spider Pedestal fans available for cooling Doors at either end can be opened for airflow Some heavy lifting required Ongoing Opportunity: Once the under-house area is complete, there will be similar organising projects inside the home, so this could lead to additional work. A bit about us: My ADHD brain (and life with 4 young children including a baby!) has made it incredibly hard to get on top of this. We really need someone calm, practical, and non-judgemental to help bring order to the chaos. If you’re experienced in home organisation, physically capable, efficient, and kind — we’d love to hear from you. Please let me know: Your experience with similar jobs Your availability Help desperately needed — thank you!

Jennifer was great to communicate with, and very helpful in my task of organising & decluttering my garage space. Would recommend & engage Jennifer’s services again!

I need to rearrange my chaotic storage unit in order to prepare for an upcoming move interstate — ideally I will get two movers who are able to take everything out then put it back in, regrouping all items for greater convenience / access ! Must be able to follow my directions. Bonus if you can also take misc hard rubbish items such as a pallet off my hands as well

Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an INCREDIBLE experience with Marco - the two of them absolutely smashed it out of the park ! Everything went smoothly, they were busy working from the very beginning till the very end and we finished up much quicker than I expected. They were very attentive to the details and completed the job to a high standard. I was absolutely stoked by the result and would book again in a heartbeat
