Auckland cleaners on BizConnect provide residential cleaning services for homeowners across the city.
Cleaning quotes are usually given either hourly or as a fixed price per visit, and the two are hard to compare without knowing the scope. The most important thing to establish upfront is what counts as included: oven, windows, inside cupboards and skirting boards are the items most often assumed by the client and excluded by the cleaner. End-of-tenancy cleaning is a separate category with a higher standard, since it has to satisfy a property manager rather than you.
Weekly or fortnightly visits covering the usual rooms. Fortnightly visits often take longer per visit than weekly ones, so the per-visit rate is not always directly comparable.
A thorough clean to meet the standard expected at the end of a tenancy, typically including oven, range hood, inside cupboards and window tracks. Worth confirming whether carpet cleaning is included, as it usually is not.
A one-off reset going well beyond routine cleaning — inside appliances, behind furniture, skirtings and light fittings. Often sensible before starting a regular schedule.
Before or after moving, following building work, or ahead of hosting. Post-construction cleaning is its own thing, since fine dust needs repeated passes and settles for days afterwards.
Usually not in a standard clean. Ovens are commonly quoted separately or included only in a deep or end-of-tenancy clean. It is one of the most frequent misunderstandings, so confirm it explicitly when comparing quotes.
A higher standard than routine cleaning, typically including inside the oven and range hood, inside cupboards and drawers, window tracks, and skirtings. Carpet cleaning is generally separate. Check your tenancy agreement, as some specify professional carpet cleaning.
Fixed pricing gives certainty and suits regular cleans of a known property. Hourly can work out better for one-offs where the scope is uncertain. Whichever you pick, make sure the task list is written down — that matters more than the pricing model.
