Deep clean versus regular: when the expensive visit is the cheap one
A regular clean is maintenance: floors, dusting, bathrooms, kitchen surfaces, beds. A deep clean is restoration: inside the oven and fridge, limescale, grout, skirting boards, under and behind furniture. Deep cleans are priced as a job rather than by the hour — commonly AED 400–900 for an apartment and AED 600–1,500 for a three-to-four-bedroom villa — and people flinch at those numbers next to an AED 150–350 regular visit.
Where deep cleans are non-negotiable: move-in and move-out. UAE landlords routinely withhold part of a security deposit over cleaning, and deposits are far larger than the AED 400–900 an apartment move-out clean costs. A documented professional clean, with photos, is one of the highest-return cleaning purchases in the country.
AED ranges
apartment cleaning generally falls in the AED 35–90 per hour band. Comparing several verified vendors on the same job description is what stops you overpaying.
Standard hourly rate, per cleanerAED 35–90
Materials and supplies surcharge, per visitAED 10–30
Regular clean, 2-bed apartment (3–4 hours)AED 120–350
Deep clean, 1–2 bed apartmentAED 400–900
Sofa or mattress shampoo, per pieceAED 100–300
The range narrows to an actual figure once a vendor sees the scope. You approve it before work starts.
Frequently asked questions
Is AED 35–40 per hour too cheap to be safe?
Not automatically — weekday, no-materials rates from lean Sharjah or Ajman companies legitimately sit there. It becomes a red flag combined with no trade licence, cash-only payment, or staff who are not the company's own employees, because then there is no accountability for damage. Verify the company, not just the price.
Should I provide cleaning supplies or pay for theirs?
For regular weekly cleaning, your own kit usually pays for itself within two to three months against a surcharge of AED 10–30 per visit, and lets you control what touches marble and delicate surfaces. For deep cleans, pay the inclusive rate — the machinery is the point.
Is a cleaning package worth it over ad-hoc booking?
If you clean weekly at a fixed rhythm, usually yes — packages typically work out meaningfully cheaper per hour. Check three terms before signing: cancellation notice, whether missed visits roll over, and whether your slot and cleaner are fixed. Rigid terms with no rollover can cost more than ad-hoc booking in a travel-heavy year.
Do I need to be home during the clean?
No, and many regular clients hand over access once trust is established, but stay home for the first visit or two. Either way, secure valuables, cash and documents as standard practice — it protects the cleaner from suspicion as much as it protects you.
Does a regular clean include the oven, fridge and windows?
Usually not — interior oven and fridge cleaning, full window washing and grout work are deep-clean or add-on items, and assuming otherwise is the most common source of end-of-visit disappointment. If you want them, name them in the scope when booking so hours and price reflect it.
Do you cover Boulevard?
Yes — Boulevard is covered across Dubai, with vendors who regularly work the area. Availability shows live in the app.
