Representative reviewIllustrative portrait

Booked again after a year away — same cleaner, same kitchen routine, same calm walk-in. The receipt hitting my phone before I'm home is a small thing that does a lot of work.

Asked for a same-day on a Tuesday and they moved a slot to make it happen. Quietly excellent — and the price was exactly what the booking screen said.

Recurring reset for two months now. The house just stays handled — I stopped writing the checklist after the third visit.

About Hometress

Philadelphia house cleaning & maid service.

Hometress is a house cleaning and maid service built for Philadelphia homes. We connect you with background-checked independent cleaning professionals — and on recurring plans we prefer to send the cleaner who already knows your home, so your home gets a routine, not a roster of strangers.

Book a standard reset, a quarterly deep clean, or a move-in / move-out clean in about a minute, with flat all-in pricing shown before a card is ever held. No quote forms, no phone tag, no surprise upcharges — and we clean thoroughly but thoughtfully, with eco-friendly products that are gentle on your home and the people in it.

Every visit is backed by our White Glove Guarantee: if something isn't right, we'll make it right. That's housekeeping you can count on across Philadelphia, week over week.

Philadelphia's home & maid cleaning service

At Hometress, we treat your home or business with the respect and care you can depend on. A space isn't really clean until you can feel it — that first easy breath when you walk back in.

We know how Philadelphia homes are actually built — narrow rowhome stairwells, original hardwood and plaster, radiators and exposed brick, trinities with no central air. Your cleaner cleans for that, not a generic floor plan. And parking and supplies are already in the flat price, so the number on the screen is the number you pay.

The room-by-room standard

Every room,
accounted for.

A home reset should never feel vague. Your pro follows a clear plan, brings every supply, and closes the loop before they leave.

“Clean” is not a mood. It is a standard you can see, room by room.

How it works

Three taps to a finished home.

No quote forms. No back-and-forth. No surprise upcharges. The path from “I should book a clean” to “the kitchen looks great” is shorter than you think.

  1. Book in under a minute

    Pick a service, tell us your home, choose a time. You see the all-in price before you confirm. Held now · charged after your clean, so there's nothing left to settle later. No quote form, no phone tag.

    Standard · Deep · Move

  2. We match a vetted cleaner

    Background-checked, experienced, and matched to your home. Recurring visits prefer the same cleaner each time — you see who's coming before they arrive.

    Background-checked · Supplies included

  3. Your home, reset

    The cleaner arrives, does the work, and an itemised receipt lands on your phone. Nothing else gets charged — the price you paid is the whole price. If anything's missed, tell us within 48 hours and we'll return or refund the affected portion.

    No add-on charges · 48-hr White Glove Guarantee

Our mission

Leave your home comfortable & healthy.

Our mission is simple: make your space clean, comfortable, and healthy — and keep it that way without harsh chemicals, in an eco-friendly way. Life doesn't leave much room for scrubbing grout, and doing it all yourself just isn't necessary. We're a tap away.

There's no reason to sacrifice the health of your home or workspace. Our methods are thorough but always thoughtful — of both you and your environment — and we deliver them with a smile.

We make life worry-free with a service that's reliable, capable, and there when you need it most. We guarantee our work and stand behind it. Good help, when you need it — you've found it with Hometress.

The Hometress standard

Home & maid cleaning services you can depend on.

Our goal has never changed: exceed expectations by treating your home — or your business — with the respect and care it deserves. A space isn't really clean until you can feel it: that pleasant freshness when you walk back in, the “Ahhh…” moment that tells you the job was done right.

Trained cleaning professionals take pride in that moment. A healthy, clean environment to live and work in isn't a luxury — it's what lets you relax, focus, and take the worry off your plate. That's the standard every visit is held to.

Our promise

Backed by our White Glove Guarantee.

We stand behind our work. If the clean isn't right, tell us within 48 hours. We review every concern and make it right — a free re-clean of what was missed, or a credit or refund on that portion. That's the White Glove Guarantee, and it rides along on every visit.

Pricing & billing

Why is there no quote form?

Because the answer to "how much?" should not require a phone call. Our prices are set by service and home size — you see the all-in number on the booking screen before you enter a card.

See pricing
What does "all-in" actually cover?

Labor, supplies, parking allowance, support follow-up, and any taxes that apply in your city. The number on the booking screen is the number that hits the card. No tip pre-checked, no surprise upcharge at the door.

How much does house cleaning cost in Philadelphia?

A standard reset starts at $170, a deep clean at $255, and a move-in / move-out clean at $290 — flat and all-in, sized to your home. Your exact price shows on the booking screen before you enter a card.

See full pricing
Do I have to tip?

Never required, never pre-checked. The all-in price already pays your cleaner fairly. If you'd like to add a tip you can — but it's always your call, not a default.

Your cleaner

Can I keep the same cleaner each visit?

Where availability allows, yes. Your booking flow will name the cleaner being matched to you, and recurring resets prefer the same cleaner each time. If they are out, you will see who is covering before the visit — never a surprise face.

Are your cleaners background-checked?

Hometress works with background-checked independent cleaning professionals, held to one standard on every visit. Hometress also carries general liability insurance that may cover damage caused by a cleaner's negligence — the terms and exclusions are in our Terms of Service.

The clean itself

What's included in a deep cleaning?

Everything in a standard reset — kitchens, bathrooms, surfaces, floors — plus the built-up work: baseboards and trim, tile and grout, fixtures, vents, and appliance interiors. It's the quarterly clean that catches what weekly passes can't.

See the deep reset
How long does a cleaning take?

A standard reset runs about 2.5 hours, a deep clean about 4, and a move-in / move-out clean about 5 — depending on your home's size and state. You'll see the estimated window when you book.

Access & your home

What if I'm not home?

Lockbox, doorman, smart-lock code, or a key handoff at the door — any of these work. You'll be asked how you want entry handled during booking, and your home notes carry forward to every future reset.

Do I need to provide supplies?

No. Your cleaner arrives with professional, eco-friendly supplies and equipment. If you'd rather we use your own products — for a sensitivity, a finish, or a pet — just leave a note and we will.

Guarantee & flexibility

What happens if something gets missed?

Tell us within 48 hours. We review every concern and make it right — a return visit at no second charge, or a credit or refund on the affected portion. That's the 48-hour White Glove Guarantee. Your itemised receipt and your follow-up message tell us exactly what landed and what didn't.

Read the guarantee
Can I pause or cancel a recurring reset?

Yes — skip a week, swap a time, or end the series. Give more than 48 hours' notice and there's no cancellation fee; inside that window our published fee schedule applies (Terms, Section 2.4).
