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.

Yard & house cleanup - organic, bricks, closets, junk to skip bin

$400

Palmyra Melville Willagee Ward WA, Australia

17th Apr 2025

I’ve done my back in so I need some help to clean up the house and surrounding property.. Removing junk, stones, sorting bricks into piles, old trees, branches, old wardrobes, throwing out old stuff and clearing and are to make way for a shed. Using a wheel barrow and dumping things in the skip bin. Help demo some old cupboards inside the house and out in skip. Using shovel to clear away dirt and help level out an area. Looking at about 6 hours work I estimate.

Great Irish lad — hard worker, harder than most! He didn’t stop for a break the entire time, which is rare these days. Polite, respectful, and showed genuine care for our home and belongings. Everything was done with care and attention to detail. Would highly recommend — no hesitation whatsoever.

Hello! Please don’t be misled by the price - just starting at $50 and will be guided by you for quotes. I am looking for a cleaning angel to come and help get my house ready for my big house ready for my 8 guests that will be arriving for Easter. I have 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms. The house is a nice modern home. Bathrooms are an easy clean. Would love all the bathrooms done and windows done throughout, floors, clean the sliding glass and front doors upstairs and downstairs, door tracks etc. AND if it interests you I would absolutely love a bit of organisation help as well - clean out the fridge, organise the pantry, maybe help with my walk in wardrobe - so many clothes I need to put away. I would love a big hand! This could be full day cleaning or organisation or both! Thank you so much. You are welcome to work on Friday as I will be heading to Sydney to collect from the airport and guests driving arrive around lunch time. Lots of love. Meghan Type of clean: Regular Number of bedrooms: 4+ Number of bathrooms: 4+ Equipment and supplies: Tasker must provide

There are not enough words to describe how incredibly grateful I am to Nicole. 2 entire days this angel spent at my home helping me prepare my huge house for 10 visitors. She did every single window, all 4 bathrooms sparkling, she cleans like it’s her own house I cannot believe what she has done to help me. She even rearranged my entire wardrobe and re-designed it so I can actually use it properly. 10000/10 not enough stars in the world
