House Cleaning in Stróvolos

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.

Independents are usually 20-40% cheaper and you get the same person every time, but you carry more risk: no cover if they're sick, and often no insurance. Companies cost more but handle vetting, insurance, replacements and payment admin. If you choose an independent, ask directly about liability insurance and references — many excellent independents carry both.

Cross-check reviews on at least two platforms, ask for two recent references you can actually call, and confirm insurance in writing. For companies, check the business is registered. A short paid trial clean is the best test: judge punctuality, whether they follow your task list, and how they handle feedback before committing to a recurring slot.

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.

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.
