Recurring Cleaning

How often should you have your house professionally cleaned?

The right schedule depends on who lives in your home, how much you cook, whether you have pets and how much time you want back. Here is a simple way to pick one.

Quick answer

Most St. Louis families with kids or pets do best with bi-weekly cleaning. Couples, singles and smaller homes usually do well with monthly cleaning. If you only need help a few times a year, book a deep clean each season.

Bi-weekly cleaning (every two weeks)

Bi-weekly is the most popular schedule for a reason. Two weeks is about as long as a busy household can go before bathrooms, kitchens and floors start to slip.

Best for:

  • Families with kids
  • Homes with dogs or cats, especially shedders
  • Households where everyone works full-time
  • People who cook at home most nights

Because the home never gets far behind, each visit is quicker, and most companies offer their biggest recurring discount at this frequency. At Sleec, bi-weekly clients save 20% on every maintenance visit.

Monthly cleaning

Monthly cleaning works well when you keep up with daily tidying yourself and want a professional reset once a month.

Best for:

  • Singles and couples
  • Apartments, condos and smaller homes
  • Homes without pets
  • Anyone who wants help but has a tighter budget

Monthly visits take a little longer than bi-weekly ones because there is more buildup to remove. Sleec monthly clients save 10% per visit.

Weekly cleaning

Weekly service makes sense for large households, homes with several pets, or anyone who works from home and wants the house spotless all the time. Many people find that bi-weekly cleaning plus a little daily tidying gives nearly the same result for half the cost.

One-time and seasonal cleaning

Not ready for a schedule? A one-time deep clean each spring and fall, plus standard cleans before holidays or guests, keeps most homes in good shape without a commitment.

Why recurring cleaning costs less per visit

The first clean takes the most time because it removes built-up grime. Once that is gone, each maintenance visit only has to handle a couple of weeks of normal life. That is why most companies, including Sleec, start with a deep clean and then discount every recurring visit after it. You also get the same cleaner whenever possible, so they learn your home and your preferences.
