How Much Does House Cleaning Cost in Denver? (2026 Pricing Guide)

Professional house cleaning in Denver costs $149 to $225 per biweekly visit for a recurring membership, plus custom quotes for one-time deep cleans. Learn what drives the price and how to get an accurate quote.

Professional house cleaning in Denver typically costs $149 to $225 per biweekly visit for a recurring membership, or a custom-quoted amount for a one-time deep clean based on home size and condition. With Queen of Maids — a family-owned company serving the Denver metro and the Front Range — pricing follows three flat-rate biweekly tiers (Partial, Full, Full Premium) plus à la carte quotes for one-time and specialty services. Final cost depends on square footage, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, how recently your home was cleaned, and whether you have pets (which Denver homes typically have more of than the national average).

What's included at each price point

Queen of Maids offers three recurring membership tiers across the Denver metro, available in Denver, Aurora, Lakewood, Arvada, Westminster, Thornton, Centennial, and Highlands Ranch:

Partial Clean — from $149 biweekly. Kitchen, all bathrooms, floors (vacuum and mop), and trash removal. Ideal for homes that already stay tidy and need help with the high-impact zones.
Full Clean — from $175 biweekly (most popular). Everything in Partial plus all bedrooms, living areas, dusting, and vacuuming. The right fit for most Denver family homes.
Full Premium — from $225 biweekly. Everything in Full plus ceiling fans, vents, deep detailing, and priority scheduling. Best for larger homes or anyone who wants the highest level of service.

One-time cleanings — deep cleans, move-in/move-out, and vacation rental turnovers — are priced individually based on home size, condition, and the rooms included.

How Denver house cleaning prices are calculated

Five factors drive the final price of a cleaning in Denver:

Square footage. Larger homes take longer. A 2,500 sq ft home typically takes 1.5 to 2× the time of a 1,200 sq ft home.
Number of bedrooms and bathrooms. Bathrooms are the most labor-intensive room per square foot — three bathrooms always costs more than two.
Condition of the home. A first-time deep clean runs longer than a maintenance visit. Plan on roughly 1 labor hour per 1,000 sq ft for a maintenance clean and 1.5 labor hours per 1,000 sq ft for a deep clean. Labor hours don't equal real-time hours — we usually send teams of two, so a job that totals 3 labor hours often finishes in roughly 90 minutes of clock time.
Frequency. Recurring members pay less per visit than one-time clients, because we can rotate detail tasks across visits instead of doing everything every time.
Add-ons. Inside the oven, inside the refrigerator, laundry, and interior windows are common Denver add-ons that influence price.

Pets, winter ice melt and tracked-in grit, Front Range pollen in spring, and how long it's been since the last professional cleaning all also affect time and price.

How Denver prices compare to other Western metros

House cleaning prices in Denver are generally consistent with other major Western metros. Queen of Maids uses the same three-tier membership pricing structure ($149 / $175 / $225 biweekly) across all four of its metros — Phoenix, Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, and Denver — so the per-visit base price doesn't change based on which Western city you live in. What varies between metros is per-square-foot adjustments and the prevalence of certain services like vacation-rental turnovers in Las Vegas.

You can also call our Denver line directly at (720) 807-3424 between 8 AM and 5 PM Monday through Friday.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a minimum charge for house cleaning in Denver?

Yes. The minimum charge for a Queen of Maids cleaning in Denver is $149 per visit, which corresponds to our Partial Clean membership baseline. One-time cleans and specialty services may have higher minimums depending on the scope.

How long does a typical Denver house cleaning take?

A standard maintenance clean takes about 1 labor hour per 1,000 sq ft, and a deep clean takes about 1.5 labor hours per 1,000 sq ft. These are labor hours, not clock-time hours — Queen of Maids typically sends teams of two cleaners, so a 2,000 sq ft home that requires 3 labor hours often finishes in roughly 90 minutes of real time. Exact duration varies with home condition, pet ownership, and any add-ons like inside-oven or laundry.

Are deep cleans more expensive than standard cleanings?

Yes. A deep clean takes about 1.5 labor hours per 1,000 sq ft compared to roughly 1 labor hour per 1,000 sq ft for a maintenance clean — meaning a deep clean takes about 50% longer for the same home. Because Queen of Maids prices by time and home size, deep cleans cost more, but most clients only need a deep clean once a year or as a one-time service before starting recurring visits.

Can I get a quote without committing to anything?

Yes. The online quote tool and phone quotes are free and never require a deposit or commitment. You see the price before you book, and you can cancel before your first cleaning at no charge.

Do prices change for homes in Aurora, Lakewood, or other Denver metro cities?

No. Queen of Maids uses the same pricing across the entire Denver metro service area — Denver, Aurora, Lakewood, Arvada, Westminster, Thornton, Centennial, and Highlands Ranch. Price depends on your home size and the service you choose, not which Denver metro city you live in.
