Frequently Asked Questions

What does house cleaning include?+
Standard house cleaning covers: dusting all accessible surfaces, vacuuming carpets and rugs, mopping hard floors, cleaning bathrooms (toilet, sink, shower/tub, mirror), wiping kitchen counters and appliance exteriors, cleaning the stovetop, and emptying trash. Bedrooms include dusting, vacuuming, and making beds if linens are left out.
How long does house cleaning take?+
A 1-bedroom apartment takes approximately 1.5-2 hours. A 3-bedroom house takes 2.5-3.5 hours. A 4-bedroom home can take 3.5-5 hours. Time varies based on home condition -- a home in regular maintenance condition takes less time than one that has not been cleaned in several months.
Do I need to be home during the cleaning?+
No. Many clients provide a key, lockbox code, or building access instructions and are not home during cleanings. We handle your home with the same care whether you are present or not. For first-time cleanings, some clients prefer to be home to walk the team through any special instructions.
How much does house cleaning cost in Chicago?+
House cleaning in Chicagoland starts at $120 for a studio or 1-bedroom. A 2-bedroom apartment typically runs $150-$220. A 3-bedroom home in the western suburbs costs $220-$300. Larger homes in premium areas like Wilmette or Hinsdale run $300-$450+. Recurring clients save 10-20% per visit.
How often should I have my house cleaned?+
For a typical family home, bi-weekly cleaning is the most popular frequency -- frequent enough to stay on top of daily buildup without being excessive. Single-person households often do monthly. Families with children or pets benefit from weekly service. The right frequency depends on your household activity level.
Do you clean all types of homes?+
Chicago Cleaning Pros cleans condos, apartments, townhouses, single-family homes, and larger estates across Chicagoland. We are familiar with everything from Lincoln Park high-rises to Naperville colonials, Oak Park bungalows to Lake Forest estate homes. Each requires slightly different approaches and products.
