Let’s face it—nobody enjoys housework. Anyone who claims to find it ‘therapeutic’ is most likely lying. But at the end of the day, someone has to change the bedsheets, scrub the toilet, and mop the floor. And it doesn’t have to be you—if you’re willing to pay, of course.
Enter cleaning services. These agencies are here to take care of the chores for you, and the best part is—they’re just a phone call away.
Here are 6 of Singapore’s most affordable house cleaning services (ranging from $25-$30/hr) to help lighten your load.

You need to sign up for a minimum of 3 hours per cleaning session. For additional hours on top of the minimum, cleaners will help in laundry and ironing as well as grocery shopping too.
If you sign up for their regular cleaning package, they will try their best to assign the same cleaner to you each time should you be happy with a particular cleaner’s service. Deep cleaning service is available for an additional $20 per hour.
For one-time services, hiring your preferred cleaner is chargeable at an additional $2 per hour.

You can choose from once weekly, twice weekly or thrice weekly. The regularity of cleaning determines which house cleaning package you are paying for.

Package 3, thrice weekly, covers basic house cleaning as well as laundry including ironing. You can also request for their clothes-ironing service separately at $110 for 4 hours.

Is a home cleaning service the same as a part-time helper agency?
With a maid agency, you get more insight about the cleaner you are engaging based on the agency’s recommendations according to your requests. Such customisation is possible with a home cleaning service too but it may not be as precise, especially if you are merely making a quick booking online.
With an agency, you can request for the same cleaner each time but with a cleaning service, cleaners tend to rotate and change often. Agency cleaners are also known to be more reliable as they are obliged to show up according to their contracts with the agency. For home cleaning services that engage independent cleaners, you might not have the same assurance.
How to avoid scam cleaning companies?
One key way is to avoid engaging independent cleaners¸—on sites like Carousell—that do not have the backing of a properly licensed company. If you are asked to transfer money to a personal account for cleaning services, it may likely be a scam. You should not make payment on any house cleaning services unless the transaction is secure.
Try to read independent reviews of cleaning companies before you commit, and if there are ad-hoc services to be done, make sure that the prices of the services are negotiated and in black-and-white before the cleaners start work.
