For homes and flats

The same people, every time - and a proper invoice for the tax office.

Cleaning for private homes and flats, by our own trained staff, at an hourly rate. You get an invoice and pay by transfer - and 20 % of the labour cost comes back from the tax office under § 35a.

What we take on in a home

From the weekly round to the deep clean before moving out - the same two or three people, who know the home and the keys.

The weekly round

The same day, the same hours, the same two people. Floors, bathroom, kitchen, dusting and the rubbish - whatever the home needs every week.

The deep clean

For a home that has not had one for a while: the kitchen and the appliances inside, the joints and the edges, the windows and the frames, the balcony.

Moving in or moving out

The whole home from top to bottom, with a written hand-over protocol of what was found and what was done - for the landlord or the next tenant.

Windows and frames

Inside and outside, frames, sills and blinds. Twice a year or four times, at the rate of the same hour.

After a party or building work

One visit, more hours, more hands if it has to be quick - dust, marks, glass and floors back to normal.

The holiday flat between guests

Change-over cleaning with the linen and the laundry, on the day the guests leave - for owners and for the agencies that look after the flat.

How the price works - honestly

We work at 45 € per hour, and the smallest job we take is 3.0 hours. What is in that hour: our staff, the machines, the cleaning agents, the insurance and the way to your home. A price per square metre would be a guess - two homes of the same size need very different numbers of hours.

First a look, or a trial clean

We look at the home once and write down what it needs. If you prefer, we clean it once as a trial at the normal rate - and if it does not fit, nothing is signed.

The hours are agreed before

You know how many hours we plan, and every visit is clocked at your door. If a visit takes longer than planned, we say why before the next one.

An invoice, never cash

Every visit is on a proper invoice, paid by transfer. That is what makes the tax deduction possible - and it is also why our people are insured and paid properly.

20 % of the labour cost back from the tax office

Cleaning a private household is a household service under § 35a of the income tax law (EStG): 20 % of the labour cost may be counted directly against your tax, up to 4,000 € a year. Two conditions: a proper invoice, and payment by bank transfer - never cash.

What you need from us

A proper invoice with the labour cost shown separately, our tax number and the bank details. It comes after every visit, by e-mail or by post if you prefer.

What you send to the tax office

The invoice and the proof of the transfer, with your tax return. Cash cannot be counted - which is the honest reason a firm with invoices is not more expensive than the alternative.

What this page is not

This is not tax advice. The rule is § 35a EStG; your tax adviser decides what it means in your case. We only make sure the papers are right.

What your home needs - in hours and in money

Say how large the home is and what state it is in, and you get the hours and the price range we would start from. It is an estimate: the exact number comes after the first look or the trial clean.

Fill in the size below and the estimate appears here.

Tell us about your home

The more exact the size and the state, the closer the estimate. We answer with a first number and, if you want, an appointment for a look or a trial clean.

We use your details for this enquiry only. You can have them deleted at any time.
