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.

Josh was great! He followed my instructions well on specifics, but was able to logically make the right decisions within general guidelines independently. All my leftover moving boxes, partially sorted storage boxes were efficiently sorted, labeled and put away neatly. My spare room is ready for rent! Obvious redundant extras were separated for donation. Would definitely hire again.

House tidy / clean

$200

Calderwood NSW, Australia

31st Mar 2025

I really need help with a clean / tidy - I know typically cleaners will get into the nitty gritty and the preference is to have the house tidy before hand so they can get straight in but me and my husband both work Full time, I am studying at uni, we have 3 little kids, we are struggling to get basics done, I would really love it if someone could come and help me clean, this would include cleaning kids rooms, chucking some laundry on while your here and changing over for the next load, potentially dishes, potentially changing bed sheets, mopping etc. Depending on cost and time availability I would love it if the bathrooms got a good scrub but a general clean would just be good as well. I would probably be working from home when you come so I could hide in my bedroom whilst you clean and move rooms if you got to that point, I am happy to negotiate a price for the clean or someone offered a PH price, set a time your available for and then do what you can within that time. I just really need some help getting my general clean done while the kids are not in the house. Happy for you to bring supplies or use mine I don’t mind - I have a Dyson stick vacuum as an FYI, only noting because this was an issue for a cleaner in the past. Type of clean: Regular Number of bedrooms: 4+ Number of bathrooms: 2 Equipment and supplies: I can provide
