No, housekeeping and cleaning services are not the same; they are quite different. The cleaning services focus solely on enhancing an area’s cleanliness, while housekeeping involves tidying up and ensuring a space looks overall warm and “on brand.” Apart from cleaning, housekeeping services include organising, decluttering, running errands, etc.

There are a variety of factors that contribute to this, such as the efficiency of the housekeeper and the level of cleaning required. In general, a deep clean takes much longer than a quick pass-through. Plus, if your housekeeper is performing multiple tasks around the house, like running errands and helping in the kitchen, they will be able to clean fewer rooms. If you want your housekeeper to strictly clean a specific number of rooms every day, you will need to communicate it with us before we begin the hiring process.
A full-time housekeeper works for you at least 40 hours per week. Many housekeepers work even more hours, sometimes up to 60 a week. It all depends on the expectations of the employer and the agreement with the housekeeper.
