Doing all the carpets...I get Stanley steamer in once everything else is done. They charge me $200 for a 3 bedroom house. (This is only upstairs...no carpets down).

My cleaning crew gets paid $300 for the job. This is 2-3 people depending on how fast they have to get it done. They are really good, and will work overnight when I want.

I created this crew. Over the years I had different people work with me to clean...the good ones got called back. Eventually I need them to just do the job since I was out of town. A couple years ago they created a LLC and went into the business!

I recommend you work with whoever you hire. Get to know their work habits and know the quality you are getting. I never had good work consistently from Merry Maids and other cleaning companies. They send their best the first time..after that you get whoever they have sitting around..and the quality takes a nose dive.
