Has anyone used 'The Cleaning Biz'...? And also wondering how much is a reaonable amount to pay a weekly cleaner...?

Been looking at the agency 'The Cleaning biz' - I like the fact that they will find a cleaner, manage them, sort money etc etc. Thing is I was looking at a budget of between 15 and 20 pounds a week for two hours work (though the state of the house makes me wonder how reaistic I'm being !) This company, however, dictates a minimum of 3 hours a week at 9.50 per hour (split then between the agency and the cleaner - £2.50 to the former, £7 to the latter). £28.50 is quite a lot over my budget, but a) is my budget unrealistic and b) do you think £28.50 is OK for three hours cleaning per week...?
