What it does
Housekeep matches customers with local cleaners using a postcode and supports online or app-based scheduling. Its cleaning offer includes room tasks, optional extras and messages to the cleaner.
Housekeep makes the cleaning brief more specific than a single appointment length. Its listed room tasks distinguish the ordinary clean from extras such as oven cleaning, laundry or ironing, which can be added through the account. Begin with the postcode and the tasks you want included, then use notes to communicate an unusual requirement. The service describes cashless billing after the clean and tools for changing the schedule. Local matching determines availability, so the postcode check is the practical first step. The detailed task list is useful for deciding what the booking needs to cover.
The FAQ allows cancellation or rescheduling without a charge until 12:00 on the day before the clean. For a recurring booking, the account also lets you choose temporary cover when the usual cleaner is away.
