Cleaning services for your home

Six home cleans, open in every region.

Pick the clean that matches what's happening at your place, and a local cleaning business quotes it, does the work and invoices you.

We find the cleaner. The cleaning business quotes, cleans and invoices you directly.

Which house cleaning service fits what you're doing?

Living there and want it kept on top of every week or two: a regular house clean.
Handing back the keys to a rental: an end of tenancy clean.
It's been a while and the grime has built up in the corners: a deep or spring clean.
Getting the keys to an empty place, or getting one ready to sell: a move-in or pre-sale clean.
The renovation is done and the dust hasn't left with the builder: an after-builders clean.
A bach, crib or short-stay home that needs turning round between guests: a holiday home clean.

Add-ons you can tick with any cleaning service

Four extras sit inside any clean: the oven, inside windows, carpet steam cleaning and wall marks. They vary the most from one home to the next, so ticking them in the form means the quote starts from the real job.

Carpet cleaning and window cleaning aren't offered as jobs of their own here, and neither is office or commercial cleaning. Every clean on this page is for a home.

What stays the same with every cleaning service you pick

We find a local cleaning business for the clean you need. They ring you, quote, do the work and invoice you, and the price and the day are settled between you and them. There are no prices on this site because no two homes are the same.

Before anyone starts, ask for the business's NZBN and look it up on the NZBN Register, and get the list of what's included in writing. The guide to choosing a cleaner covers the rest.

Questions

Questions about cleaning services for your home

Can I book an office or shop clean here?

No. Cleaner Scout passes on home cleans only, so commercial and office cleaning aren't part of it.

Can I send a carpet clean on its own?

Not on its own. Carpet steam cleaning is an add-on inside one of the six cleans, so pick the clean first and tick carpet steam with it.

Is every clean open where I live?

Yes. All six cleans are offered in every region of New Zealand, with no place left out of the form.

When the cleaning business rings

Know how many bedrooms and bathrooms there are, and any extras you want done.
Moving out? Have your property inspection report and the day the keys go back.
Think about getting in: keys, parking, stairs, and any pets home on the day.

Cleaner Scout passes your clean to a local cleaning business. They quote, clean and invoice you themselves. We don't clean, and we don't employ cleaners.
