Cleaning Service Prices

The cost and pricing of a cleaning service are important in deciding which company you choose. We believe Sophia’s Cleaning Service combines quality, reliability, and value perfectly. If you are not completely satisfied with your cleaning, we will return to make it right, free of charge.

Unlike many local cleaning services and janitorial companies, we are 100% transparent regarding prices and costs. Below are some of the most frequently asked cleaning pricing questions we get from homeowners.

How much do most cleaning services charge?

Most cleaning services charge an average of $44-$96 per hour for an individual cleaner.

The cost of a cleaning service depends on local labor rates and the cost of running the business locally.

This includes the cost of liability insurance, workers’ compensation coverage, and cleaning supplies. Other cleaning service business costs include taxes, office rent, technology, and administration staff salaries.

Furthermore, a cleaning company must pay for transportation time and gas for a cleaner to drive to your home or office, among other fixed and variable costs, to run a cleaning company. Depending on where you do business, the cost to comply with all state and regional laws and regulations can be quite high for a typical cleaning service.

Do I need to provide the cleaning supplies?

This depends on the cleaning company. Some companies bring their own supplies and equipment, while others may offer a discount if you provide your own.

We typically provide the supplies with Sophia’s Cleaning, but you can request we use your own supplies instead.

Some customers love a certain product or require an allergy-free or eco-friendly cleaning solution. If requested, we are happy to use any cleaning solution you provide and will swap out our own at no additional cost.

Is there a difference in cost between regular and deep cleaning services?

Deep cleaning services are typically more extensive and cost more than regular cleaning. We recommend a deep cleaning for any home or space that has not been professionally cleaned within a month. Furthermore, deep cleanings may include add-on items such as cleaning inside appliances, washing baseboards, and detailed scrubbing upon request.

What is your cancellation policy?

Please inform us of any cancellation 48 hours before your cleaning visit to avoid a $40 late cancellation fee.

Our cleaning professionals rely on a full schedule to pay their bills and any gaps in their calendar hurt their ability to support their families. Any fees associated with cancellations are in place to help support our cleaners in case emergencies arise, and a customer has to cancel a visit.

What payment methods are accepted?

Most residential cleaning clients conveniently pay for their cleaning services via credit card via our secure online customer portal. We accept all major credit cards, including Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express.

In addition, we accept Zelle or Quickpay, ACH payments, or payment by invoice by check for recurring commercial cleaning customers.
