Maid or House Cleaner? What's the difference?

While the terms "maid" and "house cleaner" are often used interchangeably, they can actually refer to different types of services. In this blog, we'll explore the key differences between the two.


Maid Services:

A maid service typically provides more comprehensive cleaning services than a standard house cleaner. Maids are typically employed to clean a home on a regular basis, often daily or weekly. They are responsible for tasks such as:

  1. Polishing silverware.

  2. Doing dishes.

  3. Changing bed linens and making beds.

  4. Doing laundry and ironing.

  5. Tidying up and organizing.

  6. General house keeping.

Maid services may also provide additional services, such as grocery shopping, running errands, and meal preparation. In general, maid services tend to be more personalized and customized to each individual client's needs.



House Cleaning Services:

House cleaning services, on the other hand, typically offer deeper cleaning services and special projects. House cleaners are usually employed to clean a home on a regular basis as well, or just once for special occasions. They are responsible for tasks such as:

  1. Deep cleaning bathrooms.

  2. Deep cleaning kitchens.

  3. Dusting furniture and surfaces.

  4. Vacuuming carpets and mopping floors.

  5. Taking out the trash.

  6. Special projects like cleaning interior of cabinets, ovens, fridges.

House cleaners may also provide additional services, such as window cleaning and oven cleaning, but these tend to be more specialized and not typically included in a standard cleaning package.





Differences in Cost:

The cost of maid services and house cleaning services can vary widely depending on factors such as the size of the home, the frequency of cleaning, and the level of customization required. In general, maid services tend to be more expensive than house cleaning services, due to the additional level of personalization and customization they provide.


Which is right for you?

Ultimately, the decision of whether to hire a maid service or a house cleaning service will depend on your individual needs and preferences. If you require more comprehensive cleaning services on a regular basis, a maid service may be the better option. However, if you need cleaning services on an occasional basis, a house cleaning service may be more appropriate.
