Cleaning checklist · by room

The kitchen cleaning checklist: 10 tasks on every visit.

On every visit, a Hometress cleaner works through 10 kitchen tasks, from floors swept / mopped / vacuumed to open carpet areas vacuumed. All 4 tiers keep those 10. Deep adds 2 and Move adds 5 here, for 17 on Dream Home. Dream Home adds none.

The same list, every visit

10 on Standard, 17 on Dream Home.

Whichever tier you book, the cleaner works the same written list on every visit, and every higher tier keeps all 10 Standard kitchen tasks.

02 · Up the ladder

What each tier adds in the kitchen.

Every tier is the one beneath it plus 10 tasks. These are the ones that land in the kitchen, and where the rest go when none do.

Kitchen tasks by tier: Standard 10, Deep 12 (+2), Move 17 (+5), Dream Home 17 (+0)Standard10Deep12+2Move17+5Dream Home17+0
Kitchen tasks on each tier. The pale block is the 10 Standard tasks; the dark block is what that tier adds here.
  1. Deep

    +2 here
    • Wipe Down Refrigerator And Cabinet Tops (up to 9ft)
    • Deeply Scrub & Disinfect Stovetop
  2. Move

    +5 here

    • Deep Scrub of Kitchen Countertops
    • Clean & Degrease Air fryers
    • Deeply Scrub & Degrease Stovetop
  3. Dream Home

    +0 here

    Adds no task that names the kitchen. Dream Home's 10 extras name the whole house (6) and the bedroom (1). The other 3 name no single room: "Laundry Wash & Dry (2 Loads)", "Professional Organization (30-mins)" and "Attempt Removal of Rust, Lime, or Calcium".

Whole-house tasks that reach the kitchen

The sheets list these for the whole home, not for any one room. Each names something the kitchen can have, so the house-wide task can reach it. A cap in brackets counts across the whole home, not per room.

03 · What moves the price

The size band is the line that grows.

Standard starts at $170. The booking form counts bedrooms and baths but not kitchens, so no receipt line is the kitchen's own. What grows with a bigger home is the size band you pick, no charge for Cozy to $90 for Luxury. The line is the same on every tier.

Priced by the booking flow from the published catalog, version 20. Sales tax is added at checkout.
