Single moms give a ferocious effort to provide for their babies so we choose to ferociously support them and give single mothers back a few hours of their precious, priceless time each and every week.
A weekly house cleaning service is the perfect way to spend quality time with your little ones without having to worry about getting everything done around the house. You spend so much time providing — let us take care of the cleaning.
We'll come in every week (or every other week) and refresh everything just the way you like it. After just the first couple of regular cleans, we'll learn things about you that you wouldn't even know to let us know about
Time is precious, especially if you're a single mom (or dad!). You deserve a break every once in a while! Get yourself a house cleaning service that makes *that* actually happen for you!
We know one of the first (and most important) things to consider when hiring a reputable cleaning service is budget. So, how much does it typically cost to hire a cleaning service in Vassar?
Every reputable cleaning company will tell you "it depends" when it comes to pricing because, well, it does!
There are so many different things that go into an exceptional client experience... it makes it difficult to give you an exact price/cost for the type of service that you actually need. But! We can get you close!
Hiring a professional home cleaning service in Vassar can prevent stress, help control allergies caused by indoor irritants and make for a happy, healthy home.
House cleaning can be really hard work, especially if you're doing it yourself. You'll need to invest a lot of time, effort, and energy into it. If you have any kind of physical limitations, it's even harder. You can't just clean one time and then never have to clean again. Your house needs cleaning again and again. (And if you have kids? Good luck staying on top of it all!)
Fortunately, regular cleaning services are no longer an unattainable luxury.
In fact, budgeting in a weekly cleaning service or maid service on a regular basis can be worth the investment for the additional freedom and time you get back.
And Custom Maids makes it extremely** **simple to get your home cleaned and refreshed every single week.
My team and I are dedicated to giving you back the most important thing. Your time.

The Reddit community ALWAYS comes through! I copy and pasted one of the best reddit threads I’ve ever read. Please feel free to read through all of the comments on that same thread by clicking the link below!
I just used a leaf blower to dust the ceilings.....I am currently waiting for the dust fallout to settle to GET BUSY!
(to settle the concerns: I cover the flat surfaces with sheets in the room & set a fan facing out the window. I blast the dirt off the ceilings & walls then close the room off for a while. Then I fold/remove the dust-covered sheets. I clean the room as usual. While it's not conventional: it works for me. I live in the ever-dusty south. I only do this as a "deep cleaning" thing. For regular cleaning of the fans/ceiling/walls I do use a vac/broom.)

A company that offers a wildly low price may not be operating legitimately. At the same time, an egregious price could be your red flag warning to stay away from that greedy company (or individual).
If you're working with a larger company, request that the same crew come each time. This creates consistency and accountability
Electronic locks with one-time use codes are handy for giving house cleaning services access to your home while also protecting your privacy
Discuss how you'd like your home cleaned, and work with your cleaner on setting a reasonable price. But always remember, the client doesn't set the price. The company does. If the company isn't willing to agree to your counteroffer(s), there's no harm in searching for other local residential cleaning companies and getting additional estimates from them.
No, you don’t have to be home when cleaners come to your house.
Before our expert cleaning technicians arrive, you can communicate all of your expectations and needs to make sure everything is properly taken care of that day. Think: how can they get in and lock up after cleaning your house, which cleaning products should they use (and where to find them in the house) or do they need to bring their own supplies. If you’d rather be home, that’s great, too. Whatever works for you, works for us! We're Custom Maids for a reason!

In the Vassar area, weekly house cleaning from Custom Maids will be priced anywhere from $97-$197+ depending on the size of the home (or office) and the effort required to clean the space.

For one cleaner on site, they charge $20 per hour. They charge an additional $15 per room to clean windows and an additional $20 per room to clean sliding doors.
Some cleaning companies charge an hourly rate, which means the price you pay for each visit can vary with just how dirty your house is that week.
Typically, house cleaning companies that do charge by the hour will provide you a walk-through before you hire them.
The walk-through allows them to see the size, layout and general cleanliness of your house, and give you an estimate of what a one-time or first-time cleaning will cost as well rates for ongoing services, whether weekly, bi-monthly, or monthly. Typically their hourly rate stays the same, but the one-time or first-time cleaning will cost more because it takes more time.
Your cleaning costs will usually be consistent from week to week or month to month, unless you have a particularly messy part or other unusual situation.
Move-out cleaning costs $160-$250 on average for a 2-bedroom apartment or house. The cost will be higher if cleaners have to spend extra time removing carpet stains or wall marks.
