The honest starting point
Residential cleaning with Simply Done starts at $38 per hour per cleaner. That rate covers a background-checked cleaner, supplies, insurance, and GPS-tracked time so you only ever pay for the minutes a cleaner is actually in your home. Everything below is about how many of those hours your home needs.
What drives the time
- Size and layout. A three-bedroom, two-bath home with an open main floor is the Grande Prairie standard and the baseline for most of our estimates. Every extra bathroom adds real time; bedrooms add less.
- Current condition. A home that's been cleaned regularly takes a fraction of the time of one that hasn't been touched since spring. This is why the first visit is always the longest.
- Pets. Fur on floors and furniture adds vacuuming passes. Two dogs can add half an hour.
- Frequency. Weekly and bi-weekly homes stay in maintenance mode and take the least time per visit. Monthly homes drift back toward a deep clean every time.
- Extras. Inside the oven, inside the fridge, interior windows and baseboards are add-ons because they take real time; we'll tell you up front what each one adds.
First clean versus recurring clean
Your first visit is a reset. The crew works through the whole house to a deep-clean standard so that every visit after it is maintenance. Expect the first clean to take roughly twice as long as a recurring one. After that, a typical three-bed home on a bi-weekly schedule settles into a predictable visit length and a predictable bill.
Typical ranges in Grande Prairie
Rather than quote a single number that won't match your house, here's how most homes shake out once they're on a schedule:
- Condo or small bungalow, no pets: the shortest visits we do.
- Three-bed, two-bath family home: our most common booking, usually one cleaner for a few hours or two cleaners for half that.
- Large two-storey with a finished basement and pets: two cleaners and a longer visit.
The instant estimate turns your home's details into an actual price in about 30 seconds, with no call required.
How to keep the bill predictable
- Pick a schedule and keep it. Bi-weekly is the sweet spot for most families here.
- Do a quick tidy before the visit so the crew is cleaning, not picking up.
- Tell us what matters most. If bathrooms and floors are your priority, we'll start there every time.
- Ask for the same team. We send the same cleaners back so they learn your house and get faster.
What's included in a standard clean
Kitchens (counters, stovetop, outside of appliances, sink, floors), bathrooms (toilets, tubs, showers, sinks, mirrors, floors), bedrooms and living areas (dusting, surfaces, vacuuming, mopping), and all the touch points in between. Full details are on the residential cleaning page.
