House Cleaning in Larnaca

It varies and you must confirm before booking. Most companies bring everything; many independent and platform-booked cleaners expect you to provide products, a vacuum and a mop — especially in Asia and the Middle East. If the cleaner brings supplies, tell them about any surface restrictions (stone worktops, hardwood) and preferences like fragrance-free or eco products.

Three reasons: insurance and legitimate employment cost real money (the cheapest quotes usually skip both), companies price in supervision and cover for sick days, and scope assumptions differ — one quote's 'clean' may exclude half of what another includes. Compare on a written task list, insurance status and the same visit frequency, not on the headline number.

Yes, and most providers accommodate it — either with their own green product line (sometimes a small surcharge) or by using products you supply. Flag allergies, babies, and pets when booking. Note that some jobs, like heavy limescale or mould, genuinely need stronger chemistry to work.

Reputable providers carry public/general liability insurance that covers accidental damage — ask for proof before the first visit, not after an incident. Report damage within 24 hours with photos. With uninsured independents you're relying on goodwill, which is the real cost hidden inside a cheap hourly rate.

Typically €10-€20 per hour — noticeably below northern-European rates, reflecting local wages. A standard apartment clean runs €40-€90 and a villa or larger house €60-€130. Registered companies with insurance sit at the top of the range; informal cleaners at the bottom.

It's a mature niche serving the rental market: a fixed per-changeover fee covering cleaning, linen change and a basic checks list, typically €50-€100 depending on property size. In peak summer, book a provider with backup staff — solo cleaners get overwhelmed and same-day turnarounds fail.
