House Cleaning Auckland

A spotless home, without lifting a finger.

By the time you've done the week and the commute home, the house is the last thing you've got energy for. It's the reason we send our own local team to take it off your hands, gear and all, one-off or every week or fortnight. You pay once it's done, never before.

What's included

What's included in a house clean.

Every house clean works through the spaces you actually live in, to the same defined checklist. The full list is below. Here's the headline.

Kitchens wiped down: benchtops, splashback, cooktop, the outside of appliances and cabinet fronts, sink and taps.
Bathrooms cleaned: showers, baths, toilets, basins, mirrors and taps left fresh.
Every floor done: carpets vacuumed and hard floors mopped, right into the corners.
Dusting throughout: surfaces, furniture, window sills, skirting boards, light fittings and electronics.
The detail touches: doors and frames wiped, light switches and power points, cobwebs cleared, beds made on request.
Bins emptied, rooms reset: so the whole home feels tidy, not just clean.

Step-by-step process

How a house clean works.

Booking takes under a minute, and every clean runs the same way: a trained team, the same checklist, and a quick check at the end so nothing's missed.

A fixed price in a minute, one-off or regular.

Most people get a fixed house-clean price straight away online, with live availability. Pick a one-off date, or set up a regular weekly or fortnightly slot.

  • Pop in your details and a bit about your home, and your price shows in seconds.
  • Choose a one-off clean or a recurring weekly or fortnightly schedule.
  • A trained, background-checked team is assigned to your booking.
  • Add extras like oven, windows or carpets before the day if you need them.

We turn up ready: gear, products, the lot.

You don't supply or prep a thing. Leave access however suits you and the team lets themselves in, no need to be home.

  • Commercial-grade equipment and the right product for every surface come with the team.
  • Leave a key, lockbox or entry code, since most people are out when we clean.
  • On a regular schedule? We'll send the same cleaner whenever we can.
  • Anything you'd like prioritised that day, just leave a note on your booking.

Room by room, to the same checklist.

Every visit follows the same defined scope, so you get the same result whether it's week one or week fifty.

  • Kitchen: benchtops, splashback, cooktop, appliance exteriors, sink, taps and cabinet fronts.
  • Bathrooms: showers, baths, toilets, basins, mirrors and taps.
  • Dusting throughout: surfaces, furniture, window sills, skirting boards and light fittings.
  • Doors, frames, light switches and power points wiped, and cobwebs cleared.
  • Every floor vacuumed into the corners and hard floors mopped by hand.
  • Bins emptied, beds made on request, and the home left tidy.

A quick check before we go.

The team runs back over the home against the checklist so nothing's missed, and if anything's not right, we'll come back and fix it.

  • Each room checked against the scope before the team leaves.
  • Any missed spots sorted on the spot.
  • Not happy with something? Tell us within 48 hours and we come back, free.
  • On a schedule? Your next clean is already locked in, no need to rebook.
Our services

Our main cleaning services.

The same trained local teams and the same defined standard, whichever clean you book. Pick the one that fits your home and get a fixed price in minutes.

Regular Cleaning

The visit that keeps a busy Auckland household on top of itself: weekly or fortnightly, set up once and it runs automatically. We send the same cleaner whenever we can, so they learn your place and you stop re-explaining it. Weekly slots get a small discount on fortnightly, and both run the same checklist as a one-off.

Deep Cleaning

The detail clean for everything a regular visit doesn't reach: oven and range hood interiors, grout and tile, skirtings, door tops, and behind what can be safely moved. Auckland's older villas and bungalows hold a lot of that detail, and the city's damp doesn't help, so a deep clean is the reset before guests, after a renovation, or once a year.

View service

End of Tenancy

A move-out clean built to the standard Auckland property managers inspect against: interior windows, full oven and range hood, all cabinets and drawers, fridge on request, marks off walls where reasonable. If anything's flagged at handover within 48 hours, we're back to put it right.

View service

Window Cleaning

Glass, frames, sills and tracks, inside and out, single or two-storey. Pure-water poles handle safe-access upper floors, and ladders stay off anything sloped or fragile. Especially handy in the coastal eastern bays, where sea air films the glass fast. Apartment exterior glass, balcony panels and skylights are quoted as separate work.

View service

Carpet Cleaning

Hot-water extraction, what most people call steam cleaning, lifting embedded dirt and dust out of the pile so the carpet feels reset. Pre-treatment for common stains and deodorising on request. Auckland's humidity can stretch dry times, so we plan the visit to get the carpet back in use around the rest of your day.

Pricing

House cleaning prices.

House cleaning, deep cleaning and end-of-tenancy (move-out) prices are all set by the size of your home, from a city apartment to a larger suburban place, so you know the number before you book. Add-ons like oven, carpet and windows are priced separately, and if a package doesn't fit, we offer hourly rates too.

Across Auckland

House cleaning across Auckland.

Auckland is home turf, and our trained teams cover the whole region: the central and city-fringe suburbs, the North Shore over the bridge, West Auckland, the eastern bays, and out south. Pop in your address at booking and it confirms in seconds whether you're in range.

Auckland doesn't have one kind of home, and the clean flexes to suit. The central suburbs, places like Grey Lynn, Mt Eden, Ponsonby and Kingsland, are full of older villas and bungalows: more rooms, more surfaces, more detail to get through. The city and fringe run to apartments and terraced townhouses, smaller footprints but tight and detail-dense, often with body corporate standards to meet. Out on the Shore, west and south you get the standard family homes, where it's about getting through the volume to the same finish. We clean all of them to the one checklist.

Auckland life is busy, so a lot of what we do here is the regular weekly or fortnightly cleaning that keeps the house on top of itself while you get on with life.

100 % Guarantee
Not happy? We come back.

If your house clean isn't right, tell us within 48 hours and we'll come back and sort it, at no extra cost. The guarantee covers everything that was part of your booking. (It doesn't cover jobs that weren't booked: if windows weren't on the list, they're not included.)

FAQ

House cleaning FAQs.

The things our Auckland house cleaning customers ask us most.

All of it. Our trained teams work the central and city-fringe suburbs, the North Shore, West Auckland, the eastern bays and South Auckland. Not sure about your street? Pop in your address when you book and it'll confirm.
Yes, all the time. Apartments, townhouses, units and standalone houses all get cleaned to the same checklist. For a city apartment, let us know at booking if there's a lift to use or a loading dock window for access, and we'll work around it.
Yes, and it's most of what we do here. Set up a weekly or fortnightly slot once and it runs automatically, the same trained team whenever we can, so they learn your home and you stop re-explaining it. Weekly visits get a small discount versus fortnightly.
We work around the building, not against it. Tell us at booking if there's a lift to book, a loading dock window, or visitor parking to sort, and leave your preferred access method, whether that's a key, fob, code or the concierge. The team takes care of the rest.
We book in arrival windows rather than to-the-minute times, and we factor in getting across the city, so motorway delays rarely throw a clean off. If a team is ever running behind, you'll hear from us before they're due.
Every house clean works to a defined checklist: kitchens (surfaces, cooktop, appliance exteriors, sink and cabinet fronts), bathrooms (showers, baths, toilets, basins, mirrors and taps), dusting throughout, doors and skirting boards wiped, bins emptied, and every floor vacuumed and mopped. The full room-by-room list is above, and you can add extras like oven, fridge, windows or carpets when you book.
Yes, home cleaning and house cleaning are the same service. Whichever you call it, Spruce sends a trained, insured local team to clean your home to the same defined room-by-room checklist, for a fixed price you see before you book. It covers houses, townhouses, units and apartments right across Auckland.
The clean itself is the same: the same checklist, the same scope. A one-off is a single booking. A regular clean is an ongoing weekly or fortnightly visit that's set up once and runs automatically, usually with the same cleaner. Regular cleans keep an already-tidy home on top of things, while a one-off is great for a reset. For a deeper, top-to-bottom job, see our deep cleaning service.
House cleaning is fixed by the size of your home, from $85 for a one-bedroom, one-bathroom (see the table above), and extras are priced separately. If a package doesn't fit, we also offer hourly rates. Book online to see your exact price before you confirm, with no hidden fees.
A standard one-bedroom home usually takes around an hour and a half. Larger homes, or a first clean of a place that's been a while between cleans, take longer, as do bookings with extras like oven, carpet or windows. You'll get an estimated timeframe when you book.
No. Most people leave access by key, lockbox or entry code and come home to a finished house. Tell us your preferred method at booking and the team takes it from there.
Yes. Every Spruce house cleaner is fully insured and background-checked, including police vetting, and trained in our system before they work in your home. We only send vetted, trusted cleaners.
Yes. The team arrives fully equipped with commercial-grade gear, and every house clean uses eco-friendly, biodegradable products that are safe for families and pets, so you don't supply or prep a thing. Prefer we use your own products, or need fragrance-free? Just let us know at booking and we'll work to it.
On a regular weekly or fortnightly schedule we'll send the same cleaner whenever we can, so they get to know your home and how you like things. If they're ever away, another trained team member steps in and works to the same checklist.
Yes. Inside oven, inside fridge, range hood, dishwasher, interior and exterior windows, blinds, walls, ceilings and carpet steam cleaning are all optional add-ons. Pick them when you book and we'll do the lot in one visit: one team, one invoice.
Log into your Spruce account any time to change the date, cancel, or add and remove services. We just ask for at least 24 hours' notice on any change or cancellation, otherwise a $60 fee may apply.
