My cleaners clean my house once a week. Works for me.

We only clean once a week, tidy up daily though... have a small place with just one bathroom so it only takes 30 minutes sometimes up to an hour once a week, helps that we are both doing it together.

Once a week here but by the cleaner. We wipe work tops and tidy in between.

I don't clean daily. I don't clean weekly. I do not lilke it Sam-I-am DH and I just clean when things need cleaning. That could be daily, every few days, weekly, fortnightly, depending on what and where.

I don't find the TOMM daily clean works for us either - it means dragging out the cleaning materials and equipment every day.

Far better to do a blitz once a week or two but keep on top of making beds, wiping surfaces and swishing loos every day.

Friday Focus is great as a reminder of the bigger jobs and I may pay someone to do those.

One of the best things I've learned is never to leave a room empty handed and to put away, not put down.

I have whittled the daily tasks down to sweeping the floors downstairs, and DH keeps the kitchen reasonable.
I found the whole thing too demanding. My standards aren’t that high.

Clutterbug has routines for 4 cleaning styles TOMM is a zone style cleaner. You sound more like a weekend warrior.
