If you're budgeting for a professional house clean in Perth, the honest answer is: it depends. On how big your home is, how often you need it done, what type of clean you're after and who you hire. This guide cuts through the vague numbers and gives you clear, real-world pricing for 2026.
We've covered everything from a quick regular maintenance clean all the way through to deep cleans, spring cleans, end of lease cleans and carpet steam cleaning — so you know exactly what to budget for, regardless of what you need.
Regular clean (hourly): $35–$50/hr · Regular clean (flat rate, 3-bed): $120–$180 · Deep clean: $200–$450 · End of lease: $250–$650 · Carpet steam clean: $80–$160
Regular house cleaning prices in Perth
A regular house clean covers the ongoing tasks you'd want done weekly or fortnightly: vacuuming, mopping, bathrooms, kitchen surfaces, dusting and general tidying. It keeps a property in good condition but doesn't go into the deep detail of an oven scrub-down or window track clean.
| Property size | Hours (approx.) | Typical cost (flat rate) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 bed, 1 bath | 1.5–2 hrs | $60–$100 |
| 2 bed, 1 bath | 2–3 hrs | $80–$140 |
| 3 bed, 2 bath (most common) | 3–4 hrs | $120–$180 |
| 4 bed, 2 bath | 4–5 hrs | $160–$240 |
| 5 bed, 3 bath | 5–7 hrs | $200–$320 |
Hourly rate: Most Perth cleaners charge $35–$50 per hour per cleaner for a regular maintenance clean. At the higher end you'll find companies that include their own supplies, are fully insured and carry police checks — worth paying for.
Deep cleaning prices in Perth
A deep clean goes beyond the regular surfaces. It includes the inside of ovens and cupboards, behind appliances, window tracks, skirting boards, grout lines, ceiling fans and all the areas that build up over months. Most people book a deep clean once or twice a year, or before moving in or out of a property.
| Property size | Typical deep clean price | What's included |
|---|---|---|
| 1–2 bed | $200–$280 | All rooms, full kitchen (incl. oven), bathrooms, windows |
| 3 bed, 2 bath | $280–$380 | Full property, skirting boards, window tracks, rangehood |
| 4 bed, 2 bath | $360–$450 | Full property + garage sweep, all interior surfaces |
| 5+ bed | $450+ | Custom quote based on size and condition |
Types of house cleans and what they cost
Not all cleans are the same. Here's how the main types compare in Perth:
Weekly or fortnightly maintenance clean
The most common service — a professional comes in on a regular schedule to maintain your home. Surfaces, floors, bathrooms and kitchen get attention. Cost: $35–$50/hr or $80–$200 flat rate depending on size.
One-off / occasional clean
For those who only need a clean occasionally — before guests arrive, after a party or just when life gets busy. Usually priced at the higher end of the hourly rate since there's no ongoing booking discount. Cost: $40–$55/hr.
Spring clean / annual deep clean
A thorough top-to-bottom clean that goes into all the areas usually skipped. Includes inside appliances, behind furniture, exterior windows where accessible, and all the dusty spots that build up over a year. Cost: $250–$500 for a standard 3–4 bed home.
End of lease / bond clean
The most thorough clean — every surface, fixture and fitting returned to rental-inspection standard. Priced higher because of the scope and the guarantee attached. Cost: $250–$650. See our full end of lease cleaning cost guide for the detailed breakdown.
Post-renovation / construction clean
Specialised cleaning to remove fine dust, plaster residue and building debris from a newly renovated property. Requires different equipment and more time than a standard clean. Cost: $300–$700+ depending on scope.
"The cheapest quote rarely means the best value. A $60 clean that misses the oven, the bathroom grout and the skirting boards costs you more in the long run — either in time fixing it yourself or in bond deductions."
What affects the cost of house cleaning in Perth?
- Size of the property. More rooms, bathrooms and floor area means more time and more cleaners. This is the biggest price driver.
- Current condition. A home that's been regularly maintained takes far less time than one that hasn't been cleaned in months. Some companies charge a first-clean surcharge if the property needs catch-up work.
- Frequency. Regular clients typically pay less per visit than one-off bookings — companies factor in the reliability of recurring work.
- Supplies included. Some cleaners charge extra to supply their own products and equipment. At Exit Property Co, supplies are always included.
- Add-ons. Oven cleaning, fridge interior, inside cupboards, window tracks and balcony scrubs are often priced as extras on top of a standard clean.
- Location within Perth. Properties outside the main metro area may carry a small travel surcharge.
- Urgency. Same-day or next-day bookings are harder to fill and typically cost 10–20% more than a standard scheduled booking.
Hourly vs flat rate — which should you choose?
Both pricing models are common across Perth cleaning companies. Here's a plain-language comparison:
Hourly rate
- Flexible — you only pay for the time actually worked
- Better for small or straightforward jobs
- Risk: if the job takes longer than expected, the bill grows
- Harder to budget when you're managing other moving or event costs
Flat rate
- Fixed price agreed upfront — no surprises on the invoice
- Better for larger jobs, deep cleans or bond cleans where scope is clearly defined
- The cleaner is motivated to work efficiently, not to extend hours
- Backed by a checklist, so you know exactly what's covered
Exit Property Co offers flat-rate quotes on all jobs. You know the price before a single mop touches your floor.
Always confirm: fully insured (public liability at minimum), police-checked staff, written quote with a checklist, and whether supplies are included. A cheap quote without insurance leaves you exposed if anything is damaged.
Frequently asked questions
In Perth, a regular house clean (fortnightly or weekly maintenance clean) typically costs $35–$50 per hour per cleaner. A standard 3-bedroom home takes 3–4 hours, putting the cost at roughly $120–$180 flat rate. Many companies also offer ongoing rates that are slightly lower than one-off visits.
A deep clean in Perth — covering areas typically skipped in regular cleans, like inside ovens, behind appliances, window tracks and grout — costs $200–$450 for a standard 3–4 bedroom home, depending on the property's condition and size.
For a small, well-maintained property, hourly can be slightly cheaper. For a larger or more complex job, a flat rate gives you price certainty and protects you if the clean takes longer than expected. Always get a written quote either way.
Most Perth households opt for a fortnightly clean, which keeps the property in a consistently good state without the cost of weekly visits. Families with young children or pets often prefer weekly. A quarterly deep clean on top of regular maintenance is a popular and cost-effective approach.
