What it costs
There is no single correct price for cleaning — there is a range, and where you land in it depends on scope and which vendor you pick. The app shows you that range up front.
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
Move-in / move-out clean, apartmentAED 400–900
The range narrows to an actual figure once a vendor sees the scope. You approve it before work starts.
Live-in help versus on-demand: the honest total-cost comparison
The traditional UAE answer to housework is sponsoring a full-time domestic worker. The visible costs are salary and visa, but the true annual figure adds mandatory medical insurance, accommodation and food, a return flight, end-of-service gratuity accrual, and agency fees amortised over the contract. Counted honestly, a live-in commonly costs AED 30,000–60,000 per year — far above the salary line most people quote at dinner parties.
On-demand cleaning at AED 35–90 per hour makes the comparison mechanical. Eight hours a week — two solid visits — costs roughly AED 15,000–37,000 a year at ad-hoc rates, less on a package. Below about ten to twelve hours of genuine weekly need, on-demand is almost always cheaper. Above twenty hours, or where the role includes childcare and cooking, the live-in model starts to justify itself on grounds no hourly service can match.
Frequently asked questions
How many hours should I book for my home?
As a working rule: two to three hours for a studio, three to four for a two-bed apartment, and five to eight cleaner-hours for a villa, often split across a team of two. First visits run longer than maintenance visits, so book generously once, then trim after you see what the cleaner actually finishes.
Can I request the same cleaner every visit?
Yes, and you should — a cleaner who knows your home works noticeably faster by the third visit, which is a real saving on hourly billing. Rebooking the same vendor through the tamam app is the practical way to keep that continuity without a contract.
What is safe to use on marble floors?
Only pH-neutral cleaners. Vinegar, lemon-based products and most descalers etch marble permanently, and repolishing costs roughly AED 15–40 per square metre. State your floor type at booking and, if supplying materials, put the correct bottle out first.
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.
Is on-demand cleaning cheaper than sponsoring a live-in maid?
Below roughly ten to twelve genuinely needed hours a week, almost always — the full cost of sponsorship including visa, insurance, accommodation, flights and gratuity commonly reaches AED 30,000–60,000 a year, well above the salary figure people quote. Above twenty hours, or where the role includes childcare and cooking, live-in starts to make sense.
