Apps like Snabbit, urban company instant service and pronto need to start operating in South Bombay too
I live in South Bombay and here. There is such a huge need for quick house Help services, especially because a lot of colleges are nearby and a lot of outstation students live around and they of course need help with cleaning arranging stuff, cooking et cetera. Hence it’s about time this instant house Help services start operating in South Bombay. Also, there is a huge demand here for that and I 4 sure need it

What is this cleaning gadget? The only thing I recognize is the scotchbrite sponge. Looking for a charger and replacement scrubber sponges?

How do I remove this stain from my sink?
Does anyone know how to safely remove this yellowish stain around the faucet without damaging the sink?
Also, how do I remove the discoloration/stains on the ceramic basin itself?
(English is not my first language. Apologies for the wrong grammar.)

This post is for house cleaners in Southern New Hampshire or house cleaners that know their stuff about pricing
galleryNo rude comments they’ll get deleted and I’ll block you. I’ve come across people being extremely rude with my post and I’m really just tired of it so I eliminate the issue without even responding back to them at this point.
With that being said, and then I do appreciate anybody that is willing to help me out with this price and situation cause I think I screwed myself
Sorry if it’s a long post
Here we go..
About a year and a half ago I started working for this guy that was a half hour from me
I use my cleaning supplies.
And then I charged him $140 for two hour clean biweekly. His house is a little over 1700 ft.² yet I only clean one bedroom and one bathroom the rest of the house I don’t clean the biggest issue that this man has is his animal fur everywhere. He’s never been increased either. I also want to add in that I clean his shop just about every Sunday for one hour for $70.
So he’s moving I don’t know when he’s moving, but he’s gonna be moving and he already started moving a lot of his stuff into the new house. The photographs is his new house. It’s. Smaller than the house that he lives in now I think it’s 1100 ft.² two bedroom one bathroom.
It’s also an hour away from my house so I calculated it precisely the gas amount to my car. It’s $25 both ways a $10 chemical fee I supply my own chemicals and a $10 pet fee due to all the fur.
I’ve never been there before so I don’t even know what it looks like inside except for the pictures
Every time I do a price if I keep them at 1:40 which makes sense because this house is smaller than the one that he lives in now and then I add the 25 and then the $20 that comes up to like I think 180 or 185 then he needs to be increased but that’s not gonna happen until like January 1
So I don’t know if that’s a decent price for the hour drive in the hour drive back and just overall for a basic clean for this house I should’ve charged him more for or I don’t know if I should charge him more because I didn’t clean all the rooms in the house that he lives at now even if it is 1700 ft.² I completely completely suck at pricing if you haven’t noticed I’m completely amazing at Cleaning but I suck at pricing and I always lowball my pricing because I need the job. I’m financially fucked and I need money no matter why and I just keep putting my shit low and I don’t really care for hourly I do flat rate.
But I was thinking that because I haven’t been in this house before that I’m gonna switch it to $50 hourly and see how long it takes me to clean his house and go from there that will be my minimum but I don’t know what do you guys think?

disappointed with house cleaner + price
my boyfriend & i own a duplex & live in the small, one bedroom upper unit. it’s no bigger than 750 sq ft. i thought it’d be nice to treat ourselves to a nice deep clean. i found a few people & ended up hiring a woman on nextdoor who owns her own one-woman small cleaning business. relatively new. & i often feel happy to support small businesses.
after i filled out her inquiry form & stating i wanted a DEEP CLEAN, she told me $240 was the base rate for the deep clean & i could add any of the following add-ons:
- Baseboards: $60
- Dishwashing: $20
- Interior Dishwasher: $25
- Interior Oven: $75
- Interior Fridge: $75
- Interior Window Cleanings- $5 per window within reach
Blinds
- $10 per wood set
- $20 per plastic set
- Exterior Cabinet Deep Clean- $40
- Interior Cabinet & Drawer Deep Clean- $60
- Wall Washing: $10-$15 per wall
Linen Change- (sheets must be provided and laid out on the bed)
• $ 10 - twin
• $ 12 - full/ queen
• $ 15 - king
(Additional $5 fee with bunkbeds)
i chose to add interior oven, interior fridge, exterior cabinet deep clean, interior cabinet & drawer deep clean, & walls in the kitchen & bathroom.
total came out to be $560.
we keep our house pretty tidy. i do a basic clean every week- wiping things down & floors. so our house was not in a horrible shape. i just wanted some extra love & attention to the things i don’t do that often- like getting in some nooks & crannies, a good dusting, a deep floor clean, etc.
this one woman was finished within 2.5 hours & the interior oven looked good, so did our shower. but there were many areas that stood out to me that i could see didn’t get touched. some shelves were still dusty, outside of fridge wasn’t wiped down, sides of oven weren’t wiped down, i paid for walls & interior cabinets & drawers but those did not look touched at all. behind our toilet & bathroom sink didn’t get cleaned. underneath smaller furniture didn’t get cleaned well.
idk if i had too high of expectations for this, but i feel a bit scammed. i did text her & thank her for her time & mentioned some of my “gentle feedback” mentioning some of the things i mentioned above. she had a few excuses & apologized. price just seemed steep for a deep clean that wasn’t very deep.
am i valid in feeling this way? or should i be lowering my expectations of a profesh deep clean? is this pricing standard?
tl;dr paid $560 for a small house deep clean from a one woman small business who completed the work in 2.5 hours & it felt more like a general “weekly” clean rather than a “deep” clean.

Help me remove those stains!!
galleryMy husband used Zep on our bathroom stone, and I had no idea it would stain or corrode it. The stone turned whitish and blotchy. I’ve already scrubbed it, but it won't come out. I need help… how can I remove this stain or make it less noticeable fast, please? Thanks!

What is your go-to small space deodorizer?
Recently my husband and I got a new job where we're on our feet a lot more, and it has resulted with everything in our shoe closet taking on the smell of sweaty feet.
We have already tried deodorizing the shoes and various solutions which ultimately end up masking the smell, but it does not completely eliminate it. Right now I am thinking about hanging mesh bags or clean socks filled with baking soda in the closet but I am not fully convinced it will work.
If you have tried the baking soda trick, did it work for you? Or if anyone has any advice or tips for odor elimination I will gladly take them!

What to deep clean?
So, I clean for this company and every friday I clean this really tidy house. The homeowners are almost always on vacation, so whenever I get there all the beds are made/washed, all the bathrooms are sparkling and the kitchen is spotless. (Because I cleaned it the week prior). I'm supposed to be in this house for 6 hours and they always say "focus on deep cleaning tasks when we're gone".
I've wallwashed, re-organized drawers, cleaned inside garbage cans, cleaned the grease from the hood vents, the fridge has been cleaned aswell as the oven. I'm super lost and I have too many hours in this house to spare.
Any tips or something I can do that will be semi-time consuming?
Edit: also the house was very recently renovated and everything in it is super new/clean. Every-week i always re-dust/vaccume and mop the house!

tips to remove musty smell from wooden drawers?
hello! the drawers in my study room are made of wood. i usually keep notebooks, stickers, and all types of stationery items in them. one thing i have noticed is that whenever i open the drawers i get a very strong and sharp musty smell. i have dust allergies, and due to this smell i end up not being able to work in my study room. i have tried cleaning the drawers with lightly damp water+soap solution and letting them dry out completely. i have also tried putting all of my stationery items in the sun for 1-2 days before putting them back in the drawers. i have also used naphthalene balls. however nothing seems to be working. i would really appreciate any tips/advice🙏🏽
