"Our First Clean was wonderful! We were so very impressed! Then we were assigned another family member to clean our home along with another person. Things were ok for several months, not stellar like our initial clean. Things left undone or lightly cleaned. And we were in contact with them to let them know when things fell short. We have extensive hardwood and from the beginning gave very specific instructions to how the floors were to be managed. Unfortunately-- a vacuum, with likely a beater bar was used on the wood, ruining about 500 square foot of flooring with hundreds of scratches. The cleaner didn't even realize this was occurring and went about her way cleaning the whole area and damaging the floor of a very large room. To top it off, to our mistake of allowing the company to continue, they scratched more flooring in another room about a month later. Ugg, we were speechless... In order to complete the repair had to have a mover come, a flooring company come, and then a mover again in order to get the room set back up. While Golden Rule did pay for the repair, they weren't caring enough to prevent it a second time. We were out of use of our bedroom for several weeks while getting this all corrected. The frustration and inconvenience of this incident was huge. We would recommend staying clear of this company at all costs. While it may seem they are local to St. Louis, apparently they are based out of Springfield IL having perhaps one local person. The phones are a bit strange as you aren't sure who you are calling or being forwarded to. And there seems to be some confusion over who handles which calls. Overall, a regret. Had we been assigned the first person, we would have likely been in good hands. -- Again we recommend AVOIDING this company."

Yes, many people find hiring a cleaning service to be a worthwhile investment. A professional cleaner frees up hours you’d spend scrubbing floors and usually delivers a deeper result than a quick DIY pass. If you juggle family schedules, host guests, or simply value your weekends, the fee can be money well spent. Regular visits also protect finishes by using the right products on every surface. In short, you’re buying both a cleaner home and extra time in your day.
Start by comparing quotes and asking about recurring‑service discounts, as many companies drop their rate by $5 to $10 per visit when you schedule weekly or biweekly cleanings. Bundling tasks, such as window or appliance cleaning, into one appointment also reduces the trip fee. If your home needs only light upkeep, hire an independent cleaner and reserve a company for deep cleans. Tackling easy chores yourself keeps paid hours down without sacrificing a professional finish.
For one‑time or occasional jobs, plan to tip 10% to 20% of the total bill. Hand the gratuity directly to your cleaner or leave it in a labeled envelope if you won’t be home. When a crew tackles the work, split the tip evenly among team members. Routine weekly service usually doesn’t require a tip every visit, but many homeowners give a larger holiday bonus to show appreciation for consistent care.
Most companies arrive with commercial‑grade vacuums, microfiber cloths, and standard cleansers, so you don’t have to stock anything. Others ask you to provide basic tools or specialty products, especially if you prefer eco‑friendly or fragrance‑free solutions. Always confirm what’s included during the quote. If you have marble counters, for example, make sure the pro brings a stone‑safe cleaner or have it ready yourself to avoid accidental etching.
A routine cleaning of an average‑size home generally takes one to three hours. Deep cleans—scrubbing grout, wiping baseboards, moving furniture—stretch to three to six hours. A thorough move‑out service can run four to eight hours because every cabinet, drawer, and appliance needs attention. Square footage, clutter level, and the number of cleaners on the crew ultimately dictate the time frame, so ask for an estimate when you book.
