How Much Does House Cleaning Cost? (2026 Pricing Guide)

A standard house cleaning in the U.S. costs $118 to $238 per visit, and the national average is $176, according to Angi’s 2026 cost data. Cleaners typically charge $25 to $50 per hour. Home size, condition, frequency, and add-ons set your final price. On our pricing page, La Petite (1-2 Bedrooms Condo, under 1000 sq. ft.) starts at $159.

How much does a cleaning service cost?

National figures from Angi’s house cleaning cost guide give a useful starting point:

These are national figures across many companies and independent cleaners. Your local market, the size of your home, and how long it has been since the last professional clean move the number up or down.

How much is weekly maid service?

Angi puts weekly cleaning at $75 to $200 per visit nationally. Our pricing page lists these Recurring Customers rates with each package:

• Every Week – 20%
• Every 2 Weeks – 15%
• Every 3 Weeks – 10%
• Every 4 Weeks – 5%

How much does a housekeeper cost per hour?

Angi’s 2026 data puts the typical rate at $25 to $50 per cleaner per hour, with deep cleaning labor running higher. A two-person crew doubles the hourly figure but finishes in about half the time, so the total for the visit is similar.

Our pricing page lists Starting Rates by Home Size rather than an hourly rate for standard cleans. One hourly item appears under Add-On Services: One Hour of Organizing – $75.

Deep cleaning and move-out cleaning costs

A deep clean covers what routine visits skip: baseboards, ceiling fans, light fixtures, door frames, inside appliances, and built-up grime in kitchens and bathrooms. According to Angi’s deep cleaning cost data, the national average is $260, and most homeowners pay $180 to $375.

Move-in and move-out cleans add empty cabinets, drawers, and appliances, and they matter when a security deposit or a closing walkthrough is on the line. Angi lists move-out cleaning at up to $500.

Our pricing page lists these under Add-On Services: Deep Clean – $99, Moving In/Out Clean – $174, and Post Construction Cleaning – $300. Check the pricing page for current rates, and see what a deep clean covers on our deep cleaning page.

What affects the cost of house cleaning?

• Size and layout. Bedrooms, bathrooms, and square footage drive the time a clean takes. Bathrooms and kitchens take the longest per square foot.
• Condition. A first clean, or a home that has not been professionally cleaned in months, takes longer than a maintenance visit.
• Frequency. Weekly and biweekly visits cost less per visit than one-time cleans.
• Pets. Hair, litter, and paw prints add time, and many companies charge for it. Our add-on list includes Pet Owners – $35.
• Clutter and furnishings. Cleaners clean surfaces, not piles. A furnished home with many decorative items takes longer than an empty one of the same size.
• Products. Eco-friendly products can cost extra. Our add-on list includes Use Eco-Friendly Products – $35.
• Location. Labor costs differ widely by city, which is the main reason national averages vary so much.

How to get an accurate house cleaning quote

1. Count rooms and square footage. Have your bedroom count, bathroom count, and approximate square feet ready, since most companies price on these.
2. Pick the type of clean. Standard upkeep, deep clean, move-in or move-out, or post-construction. Each has a different scope.
3. Choose a frequency. One-time or recurring. Say up front if you plan to book a recurring schedule.
4. List add-ons. Inside the oven, fridge, cabinets, windows, laundry, or baseboards. Only add what you need.
5. Mention pets and special requests. Pets, eco-friendly products, and fragile surfaces like marble or unsealed wood should be noted before the visit.
6. Ask what is included. Get the checklist in writing so you can compare quotes fairly.
7. Confirm insurance and screening. Ask whether cleaners are insured and background-checked, and whether they are employees or subcontractors.

Should you hire a cleaning company or an independent cleaner?

An independent cleaner is often cheaper per visit, and many are excellent. The trade-offs are coverage and consistency. If an uninsured cleaner is hurt in your home or breaks something valuable, the cost can land on you. Independent cleaners also may not have a backup when they are sick or on vacation.

A company usually costs a little more but handles insurance, screening, scheduling, and replacements. Whoever you hire, ask for proof of insurance, check reviews, and find out whether the same people will come each time.

How much to charge for house cleaning

If you are pricing your own cleaning business, start with the time each home takes and build up from there. A sustainable rate covers wages, payroll taxes, insurance, supplies, travel time, scheduling and admin, and a profit margin. Cleaners who only price for their hourly wage often find that taxes and insurance eat the difference. Check local competitors and national data like Angi’s ranges to make sure you are in line with your market.

Is a house cleaning service worth it?

For most people the answer depends on what their time is worth and how they want to spend weekends. A recurring service keeps a home consistently clean, which is easier than catching up after a busy month. A one-time deep clean is useful before guests, a move, or a new baby, or when you want a reset without committing to a schedule. If budget is tight, book less often and keep up with daily tidying between visits, or focus the service on the rooms that take you longest, usually kitchens and bathrooms.

How to save money on house cleaning

• Book a recurring schedule. Recurring Customers rates are listed with each package on our pricing page.
• Tidy surfaces before the visit, so paid time goes to cleaning instead of picking up.
• Skip add-ons you do not need every time. Inside the oven or fridge can be every few visits.
• Schedule a deep clean first, then switch to maintenance cleans. Our deep cleaning checklist shows what a reset covers.
