Can You Guess How Long It Took to Clean This Home?

A Behind-the-Scenes Look at a Typical Home Cleaning Session in Milton Keynes

Many homeowners ask how long professional cleaning takes, especially for larger or heavily-used homes. At Your Cleaner Home, based in Milton Keynes, we believe transparency is key, so here is a detailed look into the cleaning process.

Understanding the Factors That Influence Cleaning Time

Several elements determine the duration of a home clean, including the size of the property, the level of dirt and clutter, and the specific services requested. Smaller flats may take less than an hour, while larger family homes could require multiple hours.

Size and Layout of the Property

The number of bedrooms, bathrooms, and living spaces significantly impacts cleaning time. Open-plan layouts often speed up the process, whereas homes with multiple rooms and tight spaces may take longer.

Condition of the Home

A home that has been regularly maintained will generally require less time than one needing intensive tidying and deep cleaning. Accumulated dust and dirt can extend cleaning durations.

Type of Cleaning Service Requested

Standard surface cleaning typically takes less time, while deep cleans, including oven and appliance cleaning or laundry, will extend the duration.

Typical Timeframes for Various Cleaning Services

While each home is unique, typical time estimates can help you understand what to expect.

Standard Weekly or Fortnightly Clean

For an average 2-3 bedroom home, a standard tidy-up usually takes around 1 to 1.5 hours. Larger homes may require 2 to 3 hours.

Deep Cleaning Sessions

Deep cleans, which involve detailed attention to kitchen appliances, bathroom grout, and often walls or skirting boards, can last from 3 to 6 hours depending on the property’s size.

One-Off or Special Occasion Cleans

These cleans tend to be more extensive and may range from 4 to 8 hours, especially if the home has not been cleaned thoroughly in a while.
