How much does cleaning cost in the UK?
Most cleaning jobs in the UK cost between $30 and $120. The median is $75.
We do not yet have enough completed cleaning tasks in the UK to publish real price data, so the figures below are our editorial estimate from market rates. They will be replaced with platform data as soon as we have enough jobs.
What you get for that
Regular home cleaning, deep cleans, one-off cleans.
Typical jobs and what they go for
| Job | Typical price |
|---|---|
| Regular clean, 1 bed flat, 2 to 3 hours | £40 to £70 |
| Regular clean, 3 bed house, 3 to 4 hours | £65 to £110 |
| One-off deep clean including oven and limescale | £140 to £280 |
What changes the price for cleaning
- Size and number of bathrooms. Bathrooms and kitchens take the longest per square metre. Bedroom count matters less than you would think.
- Regular or one-off. A weekly clean of a maintained home is much faster than a first visit, so regular bookings carry a lower hourly rate.
- Level of clean. A tidy-and-surfaces clean is not the same job as inside the oven, behind the fridge and descaling a shower screen.
- Who supplies products. Cleaners bringing their own machine and products price a little higher and are usually worth it.
What is usually included
- Kitchen, bathrooms, floors and surfaces
- Own cloths and standard products
And what is usually not
- Inside the oven, unless asked for
- Windows outside
- Moving heavy furniture
- Laundry and ironing
The one thing that saves the most money
Book the same cleaner regularly rather than one-offs. The second visit is always faster than the first, and the hourly rate for a standing slot is lower.

Common questions
How much does cleaning cost in the UK?
$30 to $120 for most jobs, with a median of $75. We do not yet have enough completed cleaning tasks in the UK to publish real price data, so the figures below are our editorial estimate from market rates. They will be replaced with platform data as soon as we have enough jobs.
What makes cleaning more expensive?
Size and access are the two biggest factors, followed by urgency. Same-day and weekend work carries a premium, and anything above ground-floor level or requiring specialist equipment costs more. Materials, waste disposal and parking are often quoted separately, so check what is included.
How do I get an accurate price?
Post the job with photos, measurements and access details, and you will get fixed-price offers rather than estimates. Posting is free and there is no booking fee, so comparing three or four offers costs you nothing.
Should I pay per hour or a fixed price?
A fixed price for the whole job puts the risk of it overrunning on the tasker rather than on you. That is why every offer on Taskerama is a fixed total.
