About this tool
Estimate what a professional house cleaning should cost by carpet area, service type, city tier, add-ons and 18% GST.
This estimator prices a professional house clean the way Indian agencies quote it: carpet area multiplied by a per-square-foot rate for the service level, adjusted for city tier, plus itemised add-ons, any recurring-contract discount and 18% GST. Reference rates run from about ₹4 per sq ft for a routine upkeep clean to roughly ₹22 per sq ft for post-construction work. It gives homeowners and tenants a defensible number to compare against a quote before they book.

Area charge, each add-on, the minimum call-out, discount and GST are shown separately.
The same job is priced differently in a metro, a tier-2 city and a small town.
See what regular, deep, move-out and post-construction cleans would each cost for your home.
Roughly ₹9 per sq ft for an empty home and ₹13 per sq ft for a furnished one at tier-1 city rates, so a furnished 1,000 sq ft flat lands near ₹13,000 before GST. Metro rates run about 15% higher and tier-3 towns about 28% lower.
Yes — general cleaning services fall under SAC 998533 and are taxed at 18% GST. A provider whose turnover is below the GST registration threshold can legally quote without it, which is why an unregistered local team often looks cheaper on the invoice.
A deep clean typically costs two to three times a regular clean for the same home — around ₹4 per sq ft versus ₹9–13 per sq ft. The gap reflects inside-cabinet and inside-appliance work, grout scrubbing, hard-water descaling and glass, none of which a routine visit covers.
Commonly yes: about 5% for a monthly contract, 10% fortnightly and up to 15% weekly, because a fixed route is cheaper for the agency to staff. Check whether the discounted rate is locked for the contract term or reviewed annually.
