FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About Home Cleaning

Quick answers to common questions about home cleaning in Helsinki.

When you book professional cleaning services in Helsinki, you are eligible for a 35% household tax deduction (kotitalousvähennys) on all labor costs. This tax credit is deducted directly from your annual taxes, making professional home maintenance significantly more affordable.

Maximizing your savings. Under the current 2026 regulations, the maximum annual deduction is €1,600 per person (or €3,200 for couples), with a standard €150 annual deductible. For example, if you book cleaning every two weeks for a 60 m² home, your monthly labor cost is €350; after the 35% deduction, your out-of-pocket expense is €227.50, meaning you save €122.50. We provide detailed, compliant invoices that clearly break down the labor costs, ensuring you have the exact documentation needed for your tax return. This deduction applies to work performed in your primary Helsinki residence, your vacation property, or even the home of your parents.

For one-time and move-out cleanings, we require payment in advance to confirm your booking. We will send you an invoice with a secure online payment link once your request is received.

For regular recurring cleanings, you will be charged once a month after the services have been provided. If you would like to start a regular cleaning service, please submit your request through our calculator quote form, and we will follow up via email to confirm your schedule.

Cleaning time depends on your apartment size and selected services. We have a 3-hour minimum for all bookings in Helsinki, which is usually sufficient for apartments up to 60m². Larger spaces or those with add-ons, such as oven or window cleaning, will require more time. Our calculator automatically estimates the hours needed based on your input, so you will see the exact duration and cost before booking. For reference, most standard Helsinki apartments (60-80m²) take 3-4 hours for a thorough cleaning.

Absolutely. Every member of our team is thoroughly background-checked and fully insured. We maintain comprehensive liability insurance to ensure your home and property are protected at all times. Our cleaning professionals are experienced, highly trained, and committed to the highest standards of service. To further guarantee your privacy, all staff members sign strict confidentiality agreements before entering any Helsinki home. Your safety, security, and peace of mind are our primary concerns.

No — you do not need to be home. Most of our Helsinki customers prefer to have their homes cleaned while they are at work or away. You simply need to arrange access via a door code or key. We can collect keys from a building reception, a secure key box, or any other location you specify. Your security is our priority. We treat every home with complete respect and care. For your peace of mind, all our cleaners are background-checked, professionally trained, and fully insured. This ensures a seamless and secure service whether you are present or not.

We provide secure and flexible key management for all our Helsinki clients. You may arrange access via a building reception, a secure lockbox, or a location of your choice. For your convenience, many of our regular customers provide a spare key for our team to hold. Your security is our priority. All keys in our possession are stored using a professional coded system with no names or addresses attached, ensuring complete anonymity. You will receive a notification when your cleaner arrives and another once the service is complete. We take full responsibility for the security of your keys and never share access details with third parties.

Yes — we prioritize consistency for all our regular clients. We maintain dedicated teams who live and work within the Helsinki region. This local structure allows us to assign the same professional to your home for every visit, ensuring they become familiar with your specific preferences and requirements. To reduce our carbon footprint, our local teams use public transportation for standard cleanings where the customer provides the equipment. However, for specialized services—such as Move-Out or One-Time cleanings where we provide all equipment and supplies—we utilize a service vehicle. While we cannot 100% guarantee the same cleaner in the event of illness, we will always provide a qualified substitute from the same local team to ensure your service remains seamless.

We stand behind every service with a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. If any aspect of the cleaning does not meet your expectations, please contact us within 24 hours. We will return to your home to rectify the issue immediately—completely free of charge. Your trust is our priority, and we aim to earn your long-term business through consistent, high-quality results. We take full responsibility for the quality of our work in every Helsinki home we serve.

Yes — we cover all of Helsinki. Whether you are in the city center or the suburbs, we've got you covered. Check your address during booking and we'll confirm availability immediately

Yes — we typically use your equipment. To ensure the highest hygiene standards and prevent cross-contamination between homes, we clean using your vacuum, mop, and cleaning agents. We will confirm with you beforehand that you have a working vacuum and the necessary supplies available.

Our commitment to a smaller carbon footprint. By using your on-site equipment for regular cleanings, our local Helsinki teams can travel via public transportation. This significantly reduces our environmental impact compared to traditional cleaning companies that rely on service vehicles for every visit.

Flexible supply options. If you do not have the required cleaning agents or microfiber cloths, we are happy to assist. We can purchase these for you at local supermarket prices—with no added markup—and add the cost to your monthly invoice. Alternatively, for specialized services where we must provide all equipment and supplies, we utilize a service vehicle for a supply fee of €20, where travel fees may also apply.

Yes — you can cancel or reschedule your appointment as long as you provide sufficient notice.

• Regular cleanings: Free changes or cancellations with at least 48 hours’ notice.                                                                  

• One-Time and Move-Out cleanings: Free changes or cancellations with at least 48 hours’ notice.                                                    

Providing advance notice allows us to properly coordinate our local Helsinki team. Cancellations made after the notice period may incur a fee to cover reserved time.
