Contrary to public thought, apartment renters are just as busy as homeowners. They go to work and have to navigate the same world as everyone else. With that being the case, it should come as no surprise that apartment renters also like delegating their housekeeping responsibilities to professional cleaners.
As you contemplate your circumstances, wouldn’t it be great if a maid came in maybe once a week and cleaned your apartment? Think of the smile you would have on your face coming home to your clean apartment at the end of a busy day. Good news! MaidThis in Durham is offering such a service at affordable prices. Now you are thinking, how much does it cost to clean a 1 bedroom apartment?
How Much is It to Clean a 1 Bedroom Apartment in Durham?
Before we get into the details, we thought it would be prudent to mention our 1 bedroom apartment cleaning prices right off the bat.
At this time, our 1 bedroom apartment cleaning prices will typically range from $121 to $220 per cleaning. That will cover basic cleaning chores like scrubbing bathrooms and the kitchen, dusting and polishing furniture, and floor cleaning.
Note: Additional “deep cleaning chores” can be provided at a small additional cost. This is something you might want to consider doing once a month to get at that hidden dirt/grease/grime.
A Pricing Model That Works for You
In the home, apartment, and Airbnb cleaning business, there is a lot of competition, especially in the Durham area. What separates the good ones from the average ones is the attention that’s paid to a customer’s needs.
We have come to understand that apartment renters like you are usually dealing with a limited budget. It might be that you just started your career and living alone or maybe you are saving money to buy your first home. We can certainly respect this kind of reasoning. That’s exactly why we go to great lengths to ensure our 1 bedroom apartment cleaning prices are competitive and affordable while offering real value.
The pricing starts with what we would consider our basic apartment cleaning price. If you wanted a bit more attention via a deep cleaning, we would take a little extra cost onto the basic package price. If by chance you have special cleaning needs, we would gladly listen to what you need and price the chore or chores accordingly.
Here’s what we want you to know. We have great appreciation for the patronage of our customers. At all times, we want customers like you to feel they are getting what they need at a fair price.
How We Set Our Prices

As a responsible and reputable cleaning company, we put a lot of effort into establishing our prices. Let’s take a look at the factors we take into account when we come up with a final quote:
Apartment size
It makes perfect sense that the size of the apartment would be our #1 consideration. Since we have already established we are referring to a 1-bedroom apartment, our primary focus would fall on square footage. A smaller unit would fall at the lower end of our price range while larger apartments would come in at the higher level.
Level of service requested
Above, we briefly discussed the fact we offer a variety of apartment cleaning packages. The most affordable package is the basic cleaning package that includes basic chores like:
- Scrubbing and disinfecting the bathroom
- Scrubbing and disinfecting of the kitchen
- Dusting and polishing furniture and fixtures
- Floor cleaning – vacuuming, sweeping, and mopping
The next cleaning level would be apartment deep cleaning. This package would include added chores like:
- Window and window cover washing
- Cleaning out the fridge and cabinets
- Cleaning carpets and upholstery
- Wiping walls, baseboards, and door hardware
As for special cleaning requests, those would be priced out based on the chore requested.
Apartment location
Apartment location would be a minor consideration. An extra fee might be charged if the apartment unit was out of the main Durham area.
Cleaning service frequency
Cleaning frequency is certainly a consideration. We are more likely to quote a lower price for customers who are using our services bi-weekly or weekly. We can do that because of our confidence that prior cleanings leave the apartment reasonably clean on a regular basis.
Customization – special cleaning requests
We are more than happy to accept special cleaning requests. Such requests might include apartment decluttering or cleanups after a party. We would normally price these requests based on what the cleaning request would entail.
