We used to pay $65 every 4 weeks for 1700 sf house, no kids, no pets. After the baby came along and we moved, we starting paying $75 for 2350 sf.

Problem is, with the baby we spend far more time at home than before, and also one grandma visits often to help. Therefore, we need more cleaning, so now we go for every other week. I thought they’d give me break in the price for the higher frequency, but no luck. I often round up the pay to $80 anyways.

It’s a cleaning crew, they’re usually 4 people, although sometimes 5 of them show up. It takes them between 60 and 80 minutes. But I have to be observant… they may miss a spot occasionally. One of the is the crew leader, and I suspect he gets a bigger cut, but I’m not sure.
