tamam connects Al Jaddaf households and businesses with vetted cleaning providers. You see the options, the AED range and the availability, then book directly.
Al Jaddaf is primarily residential, so most bookings are villa or apartment work and timing follows family routines, which shapes how cleaning jobs run here — vendors who cover the area already know the access routine, the parking situation and the timing that suits residents.
Vendor availability is steady and lead times are typically short. 2–6 hours is the usual window for window cleaning; larger properties or added scope push it out.
Glass, tracks and frames, inside and reachable outside.
The honest answer on cost is a range, not a figure. For window cleaning the typical band is AED 35–90 per hour, and you see each vendor's position in it before committing.
| work | usual band |
|---|---|
| Standard hourly rate, per cleaner | AED 35–90 |
| Regular clean, 2-bed apartment (3–4 hours) | AED 120–350 |
| Deep clean, 1–2 bed apartment | AED 400–900 |
Nothing is charged until you have chosen a vendor and seen their number. There are no surprise call-out fees.
The headline number in the UAE market is an hourly rate per cleaner, and it sits in a wide band of roughly AED 35–90. At the bottom you are usually getting one cleaner, no supplies, a weekday daytime slot, and a company that keeps overheads thin. At the top you are paying for provided materials, a supervisor, weekend or evening timing, insurance cover for breakages, and sometimes simply a brand premium in areas like Downtown Dubai or Saadiyat where companies know clients rarely compare.
Break the hour apart and the cost structure is consistent across the Emirates: the cleaner's wage and accommodation, transport between jobs, consumables if included, the company's trade licence and visa costs, and margin. That is why a rate of AED 25–30 per hour should worry you rather than please you — at that price something is being skipped, usually either the worker's legal status or any accountability when your glass dining table cracks.
Hourly booking is flexible and suits irregular needs — a pre-guest tidy, a post-party recovery, a one-off before an inspection. But per-hour rates on ad-hoc bookings sit at the top of the band, typically AED 50–90 with materials. If you are booking the same visit every week, you are paying a premium for flexibility you are not using.
Packages flip that. A monthly plan of one four-hour visit per week commonly lands around AED 550–1,300 depending on emirate and materials. Worked back per hour, that is often AED 35–65 — noticeably below the same visits booked one by one. The trade-off is commitment: check cancellation terms, whether unused visits roll over, and what happens during your annual leave, because a package that charges for four August visits while you are abroad has quietly erased its own discount.
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.

An AED 40–50 rate with a materials surcharge and a four-hour minimum can cost more than an AED 60–75 all-inclusive quote. Reprice every quote as total dirhams for your exact scope. The hourly number is a marketing figure, not a price.
A genuine deep clean holds its value for months; a company proposing one every four weeks is selling regular cleaning in expensive packaging. Two or three deep cleans a year plus disciplined weekly maintenance is the cost-efficient rhythm for almost every UAE home.
Hours creep and rate drift are silent: the four-hour slot set years ago continues after your real need fell, and loyal-customer rates rise above market. Re-check booked hours against actual finish times and current ranges twice a year, then ask your existing vendor to match rather than switching.
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.
Two to three times a year for most UAE apartments, plus always at move-in and move-out. Homes near construction or with heavy shamal exposure may justify quarterly. More often than that and you are buying regular cleaning at deep-clean prices.
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.
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.
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.
