Home cleaning services

Your home is more than a house — it is where you get to stop. Our cleaning goes past the basics: a full, room-by-room clean that gives you the place back rather than one more thing to manage.

What is included

The same list, every visit, written down

Different companies mean different things by “a cleaning”. Ours is published task by task, so you can compare like with like before you book anybody.

Every room has its own list, and the list changes depending on whether we are keeping a home maintained, deep cleaning it, or turning it over for a move. Kitchens and bathrooms carry the most detail because that is where the work actually is.

Common questions

Do I need to be home?

No. Most of our customers are not. We work out access when you book — a key, a code, a lockbox — and the same team comes each time so it stays simple.

Is it the same cleaners every visit?

That is what we aim for, and it is a big part of why recurring service gets better over time. They learn your home. If someone is out sick we will tell you rather than surprise you.

Do you bring your own supplies?

Yes — everything, including the vacuums. Our teams are trained on the products they carry, which is exactly why we do not use whatever is under your sink.

What if I am not happy with the clean?

Tell us within 24 hours and we come back and put it right. That is what our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee means.

Are you insured?

Fully insured and bonded, and our cleaners are our own W-2 employees with workers' compensation — not subcontractors. Ask and we will send you confirmation.

Which towns do you serve?

Around forty across the northwest Chicago suburbs. The full list is on our service areas page.

Straightforward pricing

What does house cleaning cost?

Happy Maids prices every clean by the time a home honestly takes — square footage, how many bathrooms, and the condition it is in right now. Two very different homes should not pay the same number, so we do not pretend they do.

Run the quick estimate for a ballpark, then call us for your exact price — free, no obligation, and a real person answers.

  • Home size & baths — the two biggest levers.
  • How often we come — recurring visits lower the per-clean rate.
  • Add-ons — inside oven or fridge, interior windows, and more, on request.

You don't have to have the whole house cleaned. Plenty of clients have us clean only the rooms they use, alternate floors between visits, or skip tasks they handle themselves. Read what you can change.
