"Two men came in a truck at 4:00 pm. One climbed a ladder to the roof. He came back down, went to the truck to fill out the proposal. He came into the house with a handwritten proposal stating: "Patch cement chimney to save money and prevent a full rebuild. Seal all of the cracks in the crown. Waterproof entire chimney top to bottom. Chimney is in really bad shape. The bricks are deteriorating. I suggested doing all of the work to prevent needing a rebuild to save money and this will make it so no more water will be getting in their chimney anymore." The total price on the proposal was $6400 or $6000 if paid same day. He said they have a company who could finance it for us. My husband and I, unfortunately, decided to pay the $6000 with our check. I told them I want a legible copy of the handwritten proposal and pictures of the work they do. They assured us we could get all that by contacting their office. The two men took buckets from the truck and took them up on the roof. They came back down and washed their hands in our kitchen sink. By now it was getting dark and starting to rain. It must have been around 5:30 when they left the house. One man came back and asked to use the bathroom. I showed him the one in the basement. He came back up and they left. The following day I sent them a request for a legible bill and pictures. I received no reply."

Although there are no set rules for tipping house cleaners, you may want to consider tipping from 15% to 20% of the cost of house cleaning, or up to 25% if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the cleaner’s policy or preference for tipping.
There are several things to know before hiring a cleaning service to do any work on your home.
What services do they offer?
Do they work alone or with a company?
Do they have any references you can check?
Do they conduct background checks on employees?
What is their schedule and availability?
When can they get you an estimate?
Do they have insurance?
Do they offer a guarantee?
Do they bring cleaning supplies and equipment?
Do you need to be home when they clean?
Is there a written contract?
Can they be available for emergencies and how much do they charge?
Typically, professional house cleaning services cost between $30 and $50 per hour. The ultimate price depends on the size of your house, the types of cleaning services, and how much cleaning needs to be done. Other cost factors include the thoroughness of each cleaning.
Standard cleaning that likely includes sweeping, vacuuming, dusting, and wiping down kitchen and bathroom surfaces cost from $75 to $175 per visit. Deep cleaning, which may include window washing, cleaning under and behind furniture, and polishing surfaces that are harder to clean can cost from $200 to $400.
No, house cleaners or house cleaning services do not need to be certified or licensed. Each state has its own requirements for licensing and certifications for companies, but most states don't require any special training to clean a home. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local cleaning service guidelines.
