Apartment cleaning: what's included and what it costs
Apartment and unit cleans are usually quicker than houses of the same bedroom count — but building access, lifts and parking can add time.
What it usually includes
- Kitchen and bathroom clean
- Vacuum and mop throughout
- Dusting and general tidy
- Balcony on request
What it often excludes
- Common-property areas (the building manages those)
- Inside oven, fridge and windows unless added
- Exterior window cleaning at height

Frequently asked questions
Is apartment cleaning cheaper than a house?
Usually a little, for the same number of bedrooms, because there's less floor area — though building access can offset some of that saving.
