Who is house cleaning for?
House cleaning is for homes in fair shape that need a reliable standard clean, once or now and then: homeowners, busy renters in apartments and condos, and homes with dogs or cats. A home with months of build-up, or an empty one, needs another service.
A good fit
- Homeowners who want a one-time or occasional standard clean
- Busy professionals in apartments and condos who can leave a key or code
- Homes with dogs or cats
Not the right fit
- Homes that have not had a professional clean in months: book deep cleaning for homes that need a full reset.
- Empty homes before or after a move: book move-out cleaning for empty homes.
How does house cleaning with Extol work?
House cleaning with Extol takes four steps: you reach out, you get a quote, the team cleans, and you have 24 hours to flag anything missed. We answer the same day when possible, always within 24 hours. Visits run Monday to Friday, 7 am to 10 pm.
- Call, text or WhatsApp. Tell us the town, home size and service.
- Visit or quote. Tamiris prefers to see the home first, or quotes without a visit when needed.
- Cleaning day. Book at least 24 hours ahead. A key or door code is fine; we bring all supplies.
- 24-hour check. Walk through when you get back. Anything missed, tell us within 24 hours.
What is included in house cleaning?
House cleaning with Extol Cleaning covers kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms and living areas: surfaces, dusting and floors. Oven, fridge, windows, laundry, linen changes and dishes are add-ons you choose when you ask for a quote, so the visit fits your home.
- Kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms and living areas: surfaces, dusting and floors.
- Walls: dusted and spot-cleaned where needed, never fully washed.
Tamiris's rule: not too fast, not too slow, just the time a complete job needs. Exterior windows are always an extra.
What should you check before hiring a house cleaning company?
Check five things before you let anyone into your home: insurance, a written list of what is included, who does the work, what happens when something is missed, and how fast the company answers. The table shows each check and how Extol Cleaning handles it.
| What to check | How Extol Cleaning does it |
|---|---|
| Insurance | Extol Cleaning is insured |
| What is included | A written list for each service |
| Who comes to the home | Tamiris leads the team and is your point of contact. |
| Re-clean policy | Tell us within 24 hours and we return and redo it at no cost |
| Supplies | Extol brings everything; eco-friendly option |
| Communication | Call, text or WhatsApp; answer within 24 hours |
| Pets | Dogs and cats welcome |
How much does house cleaning cost?
House cleaning with Extol Cleaning is priced by home size, counted in bedrooms and bathrooms, or as a fixed price after Tamiris sees the home. When a visit is not practical, she quotes without one. Either way, the quote is fixed before cleaning day.
What moves the price:
- Home size (bedrooms and bathrooms): the main driver.
- Condition: more build-up since the last professional clean means a longer visit.
- Service type: deep, move and post-construction cleaning include more items than standard house cleaning.
- Add-ons: oven, fridge, interior or exterior windows, laundry, linen change and dishes, added only when you ask.
- Empty or furnished: inside cabinets are cleaned only in empty homes.
Your final quote depends on the size and condition of the home. Call (781) 528-7227Text us

Should you hire Extol Cleaning, a franchise or do it yourself?
Doing it yourself costs your time, a national franchise gives you a large brand, and Extol Cleaning gives you a local, owner-led team. The right choice depends on your free time and who you want in your home. The table compares the three.
| Compared item | Doing it yourself | National cleaning franchise | Extol Cleaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who cleans | You | A crew the local office assigns; ask who comes | Tamiris leads the team and is your point of contact. |
| Supplies | You buy and store them | Varies by location | Extol brings everything |
| If something is missed | You redo it | Ask about their policy | Redo at no cost if told within 24 hours |
Doing it yourself suits a small home and a schedule with free hours. A national franchise suits someone who prefers a big brand name. Extol Cleaning suits someone who wants the owner as their point of contact.
What worries people before hiring a house cleaner?

One of the best decisions i make was to have Thammy over my house to clean. She was precise and clean, had her eyes open for the details and did a great job. When I got home I felt like I was in a wrong house! My house was amazing after her visit! Highly recommend!

What do people ask about house cleaning?
These are the ten questions people ask most before booking house cleaning with Extol Cleaning, from timing and price to payment, coverage and cancellations. Each answer uses Extol's actual policies, so you know exactly what to expect before you call.
How long does a house cleaning take?
It depends on the size and condition of the home. Extol Cleaning works at the pace a complete job needs, never rushed: not too fast, not too slow.
How much does house cleaning cost in Greater Boston?
Extol Cleaning prices house cleaning by home size, in bedrooms and bathrooms, or as a fixed price after seeing the home. Condition and add-ons such as the oven, fridge or laundry also count. You get a fixed quote before the visit, with no surprises after.
How can I pay?
Extol Cleaning accepts Zelle, Venmo, credit card, check and cash. Choose whichever is easiest when you book. There is no app and nothing to set up in advance, and if you leave a key or code for the visit, you can pay without being home.
What if I'm not happy with something?
Tell us within 24 hours of the cleaning and we come back and redo it at no cost. The window gives you time to walk through after a workday, while the visit is still fresh. A call, text or WhatsApp message is enough to start it.
Which towns do you serve?
We serve 20 Massachusetts towns, 3 Boston neighborhoods and Salem, NH, across Greater Boston and the North Shore. See every town we serve.
How often should I book after the first visit?
One client who booked a move-in cleaning wrote that they would hire Extol as their regular cleaners. A set schedule keeps dust from building up again. If that sounds right, read about recurring house cleaning in Greater Boston. If not, simply call or text when the home needs its next standard clean.
Do I need to be home or provide supplies?
No to both. Clients often leave a key or a door code and come home to a clean house. Extol Cleaning brings all products and equipment, with an eco-friendly option on request. You only need to tell us how to get in and whether pets will be home.
House cleaning or deep cleaning: which do I need?
House cleaning keeps a home in fair shape. Deep cleaning adds the oven, fridge, interior windows, baseboards, doors and light fixtures for a home that needs a full reset. If your home has gone months without a professional clean, start with deep cleaning for homes that need a full reset.
What is your cancellation policy?
Give 48 hours' notice to cancel or move a visit at no charge. Between 48 and 24 hours before the visit, 50% of the visit price applies. Under 24 hours' notice, the full price applies, because the team has already held that time for your home.
Are you insured and reviewed?
Yes. Extol Cleaning is insured and women-owned, and is rated 5.0 on Google from 58 reviews, as of October 2026. Reviewers most often mention attention to detail, professionalism and kindness. You can read their own words on the reviews page before you decide.
