AUD per visit, including GST and the Care & Cover fee. Simply Maid list prices from our booking calculator for a home that has been kept on top of, with no extras or discount code. Each extra bedroom or bathroom adds $31 to the price component before the fee. Larger homes are priced in booking.
Apartments, units, townhouses and houses are priced the same for the same bedrooms and bathrooms; we don't record property type, so we can't compare them.

Carpets and furnishings need separate selections. Check carpet cleaning prices in Canberra for area allowances and minimums, or upholstery cleaning prices in Canberra for couches and chairs.
Use the same home size, condition, extras and frequency when comparing quotes. Our current calculator prices do not carry a city premium; local historical booking figures describe the work customers booked, not a surcharge for living here.
By area
No. Our prices are the same in every suburb and every city. We have not yet recorded enough cleans in each area of Canberra to compare the homes booked there (we need 100 per area), so this guide gives one set of prices for the whole city. We don't add travel or parking charges by suburb.
Regular cleaning
Yes. A weekly standard clean costs $178 a visit for a 1 bed, 1 bath home, against $221 one-off, because regular visits carry a discount of up to 20%. The table shows the price per visit and over a year.
Regular visits keep the home at a level that takes less time to maintain, which is what the discount reflects. Plans can be paused or changed in your account. If you are weighing it up, see is it cheaper to hire a cleaner or clean yourself?.

AUD per visit, including GST and the Care & Cover fee. Simply Maid list prices from our booking calculator for a home that has been kept on top of, with no extras or discount code. A year assumes every visit goes ahead at the regular price: 52 weekly, 26 fortnightly or 13 four-weekly visits, with no skips. Your first-year count depends on the start date and changes to your plan. Extras, and a first-visit charge for a home that needs more attention, come on top. Deep cleans are offered one-off or every 4 weeks; end of lease cleans are one-off.
The first clean
Only if the home needs more attention. A one-off clean of a 1 bed, 1 bath home with some build-up costs $96 more, and one that needs a proper reset costs $191 more. On a fortnightly plan the 15% plan discount applies to the first visit too, so it rises by $82 or $162. Later visits return to the regular price.

| Cleaning needs | Charge as listed in booking | Extra cleaner time, one-off | One-off total | First visit, fortnightly | Each later visit, fortnightly |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kept on top of | No charge | None | $221 | $189 | $189 |
| Some build-up | $93 | 60 min | $317 (+$96) | $271 (+$82) | $189 |
| Needs a proper reset | $185 | 120 min | $412 (+$191) | $351 (+$162) | $189 |
AUD per visit, including GST and the Care & Cover fee. Simply Maid list prices from our booking calculator, with no extras or discount code. Each total is the booking calculator’s own result for these choices. The listed charge is not the amount a total rises by: on a one-off clean $93 adds $96, because the Care & Cover fee includes card processing and totals are rounded; on a fortnightly plan the 15% plan discount also applies to it on the first visit, so it adds $82. Time allowances are shown before recurring frequency adjustments. The charge applies to the first visit only, because that is the visit that clears the build-up; later visits return to the regular price.
What you're paying for
Each service has a fixed checklist, and the price covers that checklist for your home size.
Routine upkeep of kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms and living areas: benches, surfaces and floors, with floors vacuumed and mopped. It suits a home that is cleaned regularly. Inside the oven, fridge and cupboards and interior windows are optional extras. See the standard clean checklist.
from $221 1 bed, 1 bath, one-off
A more detailed clean for built-up grime, with more time per room. Cleaning inside the oven is included. Cleaning inside the fridge and inside kitchen cabinets and drawers is optional and costs extra. The dishwasher, bathroom vanities, range hood, tile grout, skirting boards and window sills and tracks are also on the detailed checklist. Interior window glass, wall washing, blinds, balconies, garages and laundry are extras. See the deep clean checklist, or Canberra deep cleaning prices by home size and frequency.

| Steam cleaning — large rug | — | $60 per item | $60 per item |
“Included” means the task is on that service’s checklist at no extra charge; “not offered” means it is neither on the checklist nor bookable as an extra for that service. Listed prices include GST. Because the Care & Cover fee includes card processing, which grows with the total, an extra adds a little more than its listed price: the $46 inside oven deep clean extra adds $47 to a 2 bed, 1 bath one-off. Extras on a regular plan are charged on the first visit unless you add them again, except eco & green cleaning products, which is charged on every visit. On completed cleans since our current booking platform began in April 2026, 24% of standard cleans (127) and 38% of deep cleans (90) added at least one paid extra.
Market check
Here is what other Canberra companies publish for the same services, beside our price for the same home today.
Many Canberra price pages belong to Sydney or national companies; most fully local operators publish 'from' prices rather than a full price list. End of lease prices are the best covered. The highest 'from' price we found comes from a page that doesn't say what it includes.
Prices below are as each company publishes them, checked on the date shown. We count a price as lower or higher than ours only when it states GST treatment and is for the same bedrooms and bathrooms; "from" prices, regular-visit rates and hourly rates are listed for context, not counted.
Deep clean. None of these published prices meets all comparison requirements, including stated bedrooms, bathrooms and GST treatment, so we list them without counting cheaper or dearer. Also listed, not counted: 2 without stated GST treatment.
End of lease clean. None of these published prices meets all comparison requirements, including stated bedrooms, bathrooms and GST treatment, so we list them without counting cheaper or dearer. Also listed, not counted: 6 without stated GST treatment and 6 starting prices.

Published prices read from each provider’s own website on 12 October 2026, as advertised, not quotes for a specific home. GST is shown only where the provider states it; an ex-GST price is compared with 10% added. A price is counted as lower or higher only when it is a stated price for the same bedrooms and bathrooms and is not a regular-visit rate. A page that doesn’t mention a task tells us nothing about whether it is included. Providers that also publish a national price list are included only where they publish a page for this city.
What customers paid
This is what customers paid per clean on our current booking platform, which mixes home sizes, extras and discounts. These are past bills, not a price list: for what your home costs today, use the price tables above. We publish a Canberra figure only once enough cleans have been completed.
| Service | Canberra: median paid | All seven cities: median paid | List price today, 1 bed, 1 bath |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard clean | Not enough cleans yet (1) | $254 (middle half $189–$310) · 127 cleans, 86 customers | $221 |
| Deep clean | Not enough cleans yet (0) | $424 (middle half $333–$555) · 90 cleans, 83 customers | $329 |
| End of lease clean | Not enough cleans yet (0) | Not enough cleans yet (15) | $423 |
AUD including GST and fees, after recurring discounts and any discount code, net of partial refunds; extras and first-visit cleaning-needs charges included. Completed cleans booked through our current platform only, data through 13 October 2026. A median is shown at 30+ cleans from 20+ customers; the middle half at 50+. These are our customers’ bills, not a survey of the wider market, and they mix home sizes, so they are not a price list.

Price questions
Not with Simply Maid. Our prices are the same in all seven cities we serve, so a home in Canberra costs the same as the same home in any other city. Other companies set their own prices.
A one-off standard clean of a 3 bed, 2 bath home costs $317; a 2 bed, 1 bath home is $253 and a 4 bed, 2 bath home $349. Regular visits cost less per visit.
No. Your cleaner brings the supplies and equipment for the service you book. If you have a sensitive surface or a product you'd like used, tell us before the visit.
No. The price is the same on any day a cleaner is available. The only date-related charge is a $40 same-day fee, which booking asks you to accept before it applies.
You pay after your clean. We may place a temporary security hold on your card before the visit; it is not a charge.
Yes. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before your clean. Inside 24 hours a fee may apply under our booking terms.
Tell us within 48 hours of the clean, with photos if we ask for them, and we arrange a free re-clean of the missed areas within seven business days under our booking terms.
No. We don't add parking or travel charges anywhere in Canberra. If your building has no visitor parking, add parking instructions when you book.
Homes we clean
The home we clean most often in Canberra is a 1 bed, 1 bath, and a one-off standard clean of it costs $221 today. The table shows the sizes booked most often since 2021 and what each costs now.
| Home size | Share of standard cleans | Standard, one-off | Deep, one-off | End of lease |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bed, 1 bath | 27% | $221 | $329 | $423 |
| 3 bed, 1 bath | 26% | $285 | $393 | $487 |

Share: 152 completed standard cleans in Canberra from January 2021 to 14 October 2026, across both our booking platforms. Prices: AUD, including GST and the Care & Cover fee. Simply Maid list prices from our booking calculator for a home that has been kept on top of, with no extras or discount code.
By the hour
Simply Maid doesn't charge by the hour: the price is fixed for your home before you book. Of the Canberra companies we checked, one publishes an hourly rate: $60 an hour. Hourly quotes usually carry a minimum of two or three hours, so ask how many hours they expect.
An hourly quote only becomes a price once you know the hours. Ask how many hours they expect for your home, what the minimum is, and whether GST and products are included. The table shows the time we book for one cleaner by home size.
| Home size | Standard clean | Deep clean | End of lease clean |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bed, 1 bath | 2h 00m | 3h 23m | 4h 30m |
| 2 bed, 1 bath | 2h 20m | 3h 43m | 4h 50m |
| 3 bed, 1 bath | 2h 40m | 4h 03m | 5h 10m |
| 3 bed, 2 bath | 3h 00m | 4h 23m | 5h 30m |
| 4 bed, 2 bath | 3h 20m | 4h 43m | 5h 50m |
| 4 bed, 3 bath | 3h 40m | 5h 03m | 6h 10m |
| 5 bed, 3 bath | 4h 00m | 5h 23m | 6h 30m |
Planned time: what one cleaner would spend on a home that has been kept on top of, with no extras. A team of two shares it, so they are on site for about half as long; the price does not change. Elapsed time on site: on 169 recent cleans with check-in and check-out times from our cleaner app, it was a median 99% of the visit's scheduled window (middle half 79–115%); a team's window is shorter because the work is shared. Measured labour: every cleaner's clocked time added together came to a median 2h 47m for a standard clean, across 91 of those visits.
End of lease
An end of lease clean with Simply Maid costs from $423 for a 1 bed, 1 bath home and $423 for a 1 bed, 1 bath home (the size we clean most often there), with the oven, fridge, interior windows and inside all cupboards and wardrobes included.
Carpet steam cleaning, wall washing, garages, blinds and balconies are extras. Check your entry condition report and your agent's checklist before you book; Access Canberra explains what tenants must leave behind in ACT. For local price lists, what our Canberra bookings show and ACT bond rules, see end of lease cleaning prices in Canberra; for the full checklist and booking, see end of lease cleaning in Canberra.
How pricing works
Compare the live per-visit prices for a 1 bed, 1 bath home. Choose the frequency that matches how much upkeep your home needs.
In a smaller home, how often should you book a clean? In our Canberra bookings, the home we clean most often is one bedroom, one bathroom. Here's what each option costs.
A one-off standard clean is $221.
Every four weeks, each visit is $200. Every two weeks, $189. And every week, $178.
So weekly is the cheapest per visit. But over a year, it costs the most: $9,256, for 52 cleans.
Every two weeks comes to $4,914 a year, and every four weeks to $2,600.
Regular visits cost less, because a home that's cleaned often takes less time to keep on top of. So choose the gap that suits how you live: a week, a fortnight, or four weeks.
You can pause or change a plan in your account, so you're not locked in.

Comparing quotes
Check what the price covers before you compare totals: hours, GST, inclusions, supplies, surcharges and what happens if something is missed.
Two quotes for the "same" clean can describe very different jobs. Before you compare totals, check:
Ask each provider for the same written scope, pricing unit, frequency, minimum and full total. An unstated inclusion or GST treatment is unknown. A starting price, historical bill and current fixed quote are different kinds of evidence.
Keep unanswered conditions beside the price.
Choosing between providers? House cleaning providers in Canberra compared. Compare cleaning providers’ inclusions, prices, who arranges the cleaner and what happens if a task is missed.
Value for money
A fixed checklist for your home at a price you see before you book, with GST, products, insurance and a free re-clean if something on the checklist is missed. It suits people who want that certainty more than the lowest hourly rate.
We suit you if you want a set checklist done in one visit at a price you know beforehand, with someone to contact if something is missed. Another provider may suit you better if you want the lowest hourly rate, want to choose the hours and tasks yourself, or need work outside our published checklists. Carpet steam cleaning can be booked on its own or added to a deep or end-of-lease clean.
If that sounds like you, see how our Canberra house cleaning service works and check the price for your home.
Method
Current prices come from our live booking calculator; booking figures come from completed Simply Maid cleans; market prices come from other companies' own websites. We keep the three apart.
Read live from the same calculator the booking form uses, for a home that has been kept on top of, with no extras or discount code. They include GST and the Care & Cover fee. The calculator has no location input, so prices are identical in every city.
One completed clean is one observation. We exclude cancelled, test and staff bookings, $0 bookings and cleans refunded 90% or more, and net partial refunds off the price. Medians are shown only at 30 or more cleans from 20 or more customers, and the middle half only at 50 or more. Figures about what customers paid use only our current booking platform, because cleans on our previous platform were priced on old price lists. Home-size mixes use completed cleans from January 2021 on both platforms. Figures are recalculated daily. Our customers are not a sample of the whole market, so we don't present these as market averages.
Prices published on each company's own website, read on the date shown: fixed price lists, 'from' prices, a company's own calculator and stated hourly rates. We exclude marketplace and guide estimates, sites that copy one price table across cities, franchise duplicates and pages that did not load. We don't convert flat prices into hourly rates.
Current prices, discounts, allocated times and interior inclusion summaries are read from the production booking catalogue. These describe new bookings; existing recurring customers retain their agreed terms. Historical paid prices and dated competitor research describe their stated periods.
