How much does house cleaning cost in Miami?
Last reviewed August 21, 2026 by the cleaning.miami team
Short answer
Nationally, a standard house cleaning visit runs about $118 to $237, averaging $175 per Angi, or roughly $120 to $280 per HomeAdvisor. Individual cleaners typically charge $25 to $50 an hour. A first-visit deep clean or a move-out clean is a different job and usually lands between $250 and $600. Miami quotes sit inside those ranges, set by square footage, bathroom count and condition rather than by the hour.

What the published numbers actually say
There is no public dataset of Miami-specific house cleaning prices. What exists is national cost-guide data, and it is consistent enough to be useful. Angi puts a professional house cleaning visit between $118 and $237 with a per-visit average of $175. HomeAdvisor, working from a different sample, puts housekeeping around $200 per visit with a normal range of $120 to $280. Both land in the same place: a routine clean of an average home is a two-hundred-dollar decision, not a fifty-dollar one.
Hourly rates are quoted per cleaner, which is where most confused quotes come from. At $25 to $50 an hour per person, a two-person team in your home for three hours is six billable hours, not three. Companies that quote flat rates have already done that arithmetic; companies that quote hourly expect you to.
The comparison people make in their heads is against doing it themselves, and it is worth making honestly. Angi estimates DIY supplies at $20 to $70 a month. The gap between that and $175 a visit is what you are paying for, so it is fair to ask what you get for it: time back, a standard you probably cannot hit on a Saturday morning, and someone else's problem if the grout has gone dark.

What actually moves the number on a Miami quote
Square footage matters less than people expect and bathrooms matter more. A bathroom is the slowest room per square foot in any house, and in Miami it is slower again, because grout and caulk that stay damp in 76% average humidity need scrubbing rather than wiping. Two bathrooms in a 900-square-foot condo can take longer than one bathroom in a 1,800-square-foot house.
Condition is the other half. A home cleaned every two weeks is a maintenance job. A home nobody has deep-cleaned in a year is a recovery job priced closer to a deep clean, which is why most companies, us included, start with one and then move you onto a cheaper recurring rate.
- Number of bathrooms, then bedrooms, then total square footage
- How long since the last professional clean, which decides deep versus standard
- Frequency: weekly and biweekly recurring rates run roughly 10-20% under a one-off
- Building access in Brickell, Downtown, Sunny Isles and Miami Beach high-rises, where freight elevator windows and certificate-of-insurance filing add time before anyone starts cleaning
- Pets, which add hair volume and usually a vacuum pass
- Seasonal demand: December through April is peak in Miami-Dade for both residents and rental turnovers
Ask for the quote in writing before you book
A company that has priced homes like yours before can give you a flat rate from size, bathroom count and condition. "We'll see when we get there" is not a quote, it is an invoice you have not seen yet.
Hourly or flat rate: which one you want
Flat rate prices the outcome. Hourly prices the input. If you are buying a clean house, flat rate puts the risk of a slow day on the company rather than on you, and it removes the incentive to work slowly. Hourly is genuinely better in two cases: when the job is open-ended, such as a first clean of a badly neglected home, and when you want a fixed budget spent on your priorities rather than a full checklist.
Whichever you pick, get the scope written down first. Almost every dispute about a cleaning bill is actually a dispute about whether the inside of the oven was included.
What cleaning.miami charges
We quote flat rates per home after asking about size, bathroom count, condition and access, and the quote is free and given before we arrive. We publish full checklists for every service so the scope is settled before anyone books, and recurring schedules cost less per visit than one-offs.
We do not publish a price list on this page, because a single Miami number covering a Kendall townhouse and a 30th-floor Brickell unit would be wrong in both directions. Text or call and you will have a real figure the same day.
Related questions
Is house cleaning more expensive in Miami than the national average?
There is no published Miami-specific dataset, so anyone quoting you a precise local average is estimating. What is documented is that dense high-rise markets add access time — freight elevator windows, security check-in, certificate-of-insurance filing — and that Miami's humidity puts more work into bathrooms and any room with grout. Both push a quote toward the upper half of the national range rather than out of it.
How much does a deep clean cost compared to a regular clean?
Housecall Pro puts deep cleans and move-out cleans at $250 to $600, against a national standard-visit average of $175 per Angi. A deep clean is typically two to three times the work of a maintenance visit because it covers inside appliances, baseboards, window tracks, grout and the areas a routine clean passes over.
Do cleaning companies charge per hour or per house in Miami?
Both exist. Independent cleaners more often charge hourly, commonly $25 to $50 per cleaner per hour, and companies more often quote a flat rate per visit. Flat rate is usually the better deal for a routine clean because the company absorbs the risk of the job running long. cleaning.miami quotes flat rates.
Is the first cleaning more expensive?
Usually, yes. Most companies start with a deep clean to set a baseline, then charge a lower recurring rate afterwards because maintaining a clean home is faster than catching one up. If a company quotes its recurring rate for a first visit on a home that has not been professionally cleaned in a year, expect either a short visit or a revised invoice.
How much can I save by booking recurring cleaning?
Recurring schedules generally run about 10-20% below a comparable one-off visit, with weekly saving the most and monthly the least. The saving is real work, not a discount: a home cleaned every week never accumulates the buildup that makes a visit slow.
