Maid Service in Vancouver
If you have been searching for a maid service in Vancouver, what you want is straightforward: someone reliable to clean your home properly, on a schedule, without you having to arrange it each time. That is the service we run — we just call it recurring home cleaning, because it describes what you actually get.
What “maid service” means in Vancouver
The phrase is older than the industry around it. It comes from an era of individual cleaners paid by the hour, often cash, often without insurance, and it still carries that expectation — which is why so many people are surprised when a professional company quotes a flat price instead of an hourly rate.
In practice, a maid service is residential cleaning. Someone arrives at your home, works through kitchens, bathrooms, floors and surfaces, and leaves it clean. The differences between providers are not in the label, they are in what happens when something goes wrong: whether the price holds, whether the same standard shows up next time, and whether anyone answers the phone.
What our service includes
Every visit works to the same written checklist, in the same order — kitchen, then bathrooms, then living areas — because that sequence stops dirt being carried back into rooms already finished.
- Kitchen: counters, sink, stovetop, appliance exteriors, backsplash and cabinet fronts
- Bathrooms: toilets, tubs, showers, sinks, mirrors and chrome, with grout refreshed where build-up shows
- Living areas and bedrooms: dusting of horizontal surfaces, shelves, frames and blinds
- Floors: vacuum throughout, hard surfaces mopped including edges and corners
- High-touch points: light switches, door handles, interior glass and mirrors
- Bins emptied and liners replaced; beds made on request
Supplies and equipment arrive with us. You do not need to buy anything or stage the home beforehand beyond clearing clutter from surfaces you want cleaned.
How this differs from an hourly maid
Pricing is the obvious difference. An hourly arrangement bills you for time, which means the total is unknown until the work is finished and the incentive runs the wrong way. Our rates are fixed by the size of your home: a two-bedroom, two-bathroom clean is $139 whether it takes 95 minutes or two hours.
The less obvious differences matter more over a year of service. We carry general liability insurance. The team works in uniform, from a checklist, with products we have chosen and briefed them on. There is no cash on the day — you pay after the clean by card or e-transfer. And if we miss something, tell us within 24 hours and we return within 48 to put it right.
What it costs
Flat rates by home size, with supplies included:
| Home size | Time | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Bed, 1 Bath | 120 min | $119 |
| 2 Bed, 2 Bath | 120 min | $139 |
| 3 Bed, 2.5 Bath | 120 min | $159 |
| 4+ Bed, 3+ Bath | 120 min | $179 |
Larger homes, heavy build-up, or a first visit after a long gap may need a deep clean rather than a maintenance clean. We will tell you which one you actually need before booking, rather than sell you the bigger job.
One visit or a standing schedule
Both are fine. Most households settle into biweekly: frequent enough that nothing accumulates, spaced enough to fit a budget. Weekly suits busy families and rentals with regular turnarounds; monthly works for smaller condos and couples who stay on top of things between visits.
Your booking reserves the first visit only. After that you agree a rhythm with us directly — the calendar is not locked into a series you cannot change.
Who books this
Busy professionals who would rather spend Saturday elsewhere. New parents. People downsizing from a house to a condo who no longer want the upkeep. Landlords and property managers keeping a rental presentable between tenancies. The common thread is not income or property type — it is that the time is worth more than the cleaning.

Across Vancouver: downtown, Yaletown, Gastown, Coal Harbour, the West End, Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant, Kerrisdale, East Vancouver, South Vancouver and the west side. If you are outside those neighbourhoods, check the service area page or call and we will tell you honestly whether we cover you.
Questions
Is a maid service the same as house cleaning?
In Vancouver, yes — the two phrases describe the same work: someone comes to your home and cleans it for you. We use “recurring home cleaning” because it is more precise about what you get: a standing schedule with a fixed scope and a flat price, rather than an open-ended hourly arrangement.
Do you send one person or a team?
It depends on the size of the home and the service. Smaller condos are usually handled by one cleaner; larger houses get a two-person team. Either way the work follows the same written checklist, so the result does not depend on who happens to be assigned.
How much does a maid service cost in Vancouver?
Our flat rates start at $119 for a one-bedroom, one-bathroom home and rise with bedrooms and bathrooms — $139 for two bed two bath, $159 for three bed two-and-a-half bath, $179 for four or more. The price is fixed by home size, not by the clock, and supplies are included.
Do I need to be home while you clean?
No, and most customers are not. We arrange access before the first visit — a lockbox, a building concierge, or a key handed over in person. You get a message when we arrive and again when we finish.
Can I book a one-time clean rather than a regular schedule?
Yes. A single visit is fine, and plenty of customers start that way before deciding on a rhythm. If the home has not been cleaned in a while, a deep clean is the better first booking — a maintenance clean can only maintain a standard that is already there.
Are you insured, and who is coming into my home?
Framework carries general liability insurance and is responsible for its team and equipment while on site. Our cleaners work in uniform, from a written checklist, with the products we have briefed them on.
