How long should it take ?

[pluiedeprintemps]

Hello,

Can anyone give me an idea of how long it should take to

• clean 2 bathrooms 1 shower room ( all glass shower and bath panels)
• 2 toilets
• 3 bedrooms
• 1 large kitchen
• large sitting room
• large dining room
• large hallway
• fold a big load of laundry

-make one double bed, one single bed

Dust, quick tidy of toddler bedroom, Damp mop wooden floors, Hoover carpets, clean bathrooms (very hard water so lime scale every week), clean toilets properly, clean kitchen properly. Empty all bins. Clean dining room table (glass+toddler). Mop kitchen and bathroom floors. And wash a load of dishes. (All including doing skirting boards, light switches etc). There’s a cat. It’s an apartment so all one floor.

Oh and it’s using only eco products. - white vinegar - marseille soap solution - cleaning alcohol - eco washing up liquid.

Thanks.

I typically go on 20-30 minutes per room but it obviously depends on size, thoroughness, amount of stuff to move/ornaments etc. So around 5 ish hours. It's certainly not a 2 hour job to do it properly, that's for sure.

Depends how messy/dirty it is to begin with.

We have a 4 bed house, large open plan living-dining-kitchen and utility room which takes me a day a week to hoover, mop, do 2 bathrooms, dust. Including skirting boards etc I'd say maybe 10 hours but I wouldn't be surprised if a cleaner estimated a bit more than that.

Still an alomost impossible question to answer, as will depend on the size of the room, how it's laid out and how much is to be clean/how messy it is in the first place.

If you are trying to gauge how long it would take as you're gauging for a cleaner. Best way is to to think how long it takes you to do it, and go from there , allowing for the fact that if a cleaner is professional they will be more efficient, but it will still take them longer than their normal in the beginning until they've established their system.

I’m a cleaner and would say at least 4 hours for that but like PP say its Impossible to say for sure without seeing the property and the amount of dirt and clutter.

Actually, no, 5+ hours.

Absolutely ages, I'd probably loose the will tbh.
If it had been deep cleaned and regularly maintained then maybe 4 hours. PILs house is a bit larger and it would take a couple of days, it's va very variable and subjective thing to work out.

Definitely no less than 6 hours I'd say

That would take me all day!! 7/8 hours , if it you doing it a always do two room at a time ( deep clean) as I run out of steam!!

We pay our cleaners for 4 hours a week to do:
2 bathrooms, 1 toilet
4 bedrooms (3 good sized doubles, 1 single)
2 good sized sitting rooms
1 large kitchen diner
1 utility room
1 good sized hallway over 3 floors
Strip and make 2 beds and wash the sheets
We don't ask them to wash dishes but if there are any left out they do wash them, they do everything else on your list.
