Four floors of Capitol Hill row house, and the top one never gets finished
A Capitol Hill row house runs narrow and tall, so one bucket turns into trip after trip up and down three or four levels. The top floor gets skipped when Saturday runs out, and the English basement under the stoop has its own kitchen, bath and damp corner waiting.
Walk down from the top floor on Sunday with nothing left on the list
Hand every level to us, basement too if you want it, and keep the weekend. Choose a frequency and the per-visit price shows before anyone asks your name: a weekly Washington visit costs 20% less than a one-time clean, every two weeks 15% less.
Pick the clean for the row house, or just the unit, you actually need
A DC home you keep up needs a standard clean, one that slipped needs a deep clean, and the extra-dirty level covers a house well past that. Moving in or out of an English basement or turning over a rental unit has its own level, and the oven or fridge costs extra only if you tick it.
- Standard clean
- Deep clean
- Move-in or move-out clean
- Vacation-rental turnover
- Extra dirty (above average)
- Inside the oven, +$40
- Inside the fridge and freezer, +$25

Washington house cleaning questions
How much does house cleaning cost in Washington, DC?
Size and cleaning level decide it. We price a Washington clean from the hours a home like yours takes at the Washington rate, so enter bedrooms, bathrooms, rough square footage, level and frequency at the top of the page and the price appears in about a minute.
Will the price go up once you've seen all the stairs?
On the day we check every floor you booked against the quote, then clean on the same visit. If a basement or top floor has slipped, choose deep or extra dirty now.We confirm your price before we start and never change it partway through. 99% of online quotes don't change.
What should I tell you about an English basement or parking?
In the notes, say which floors you want done and whether the English basement is in or out, since owners often rent those separately. Add the entry or buzzer, pets, and where a car can legally stop near your door on a permit-parking block.
Is a regular clean cheaper per visit in DC?
Yes. For a Washington home, weekly visits cost 20% less per visit than a one-time clean, every two weeks 15% less and monthly 10% less. Change the frequency to compare.
Do you clean in Arlington, Alexandria and Silver Spring?
Yes. Along with the District we clean homes in Arlington, Alexandria, Silver Spring and Rockville. Enter your Arlington, Alexandria or Silver Spring ZIP at the top of the page to see your price.
