Hourly rates around Milawa typically sit at $45–$60. The bigger question is whether to hire hourly at all — Green Koala doesn’t, because hourly billing creates a hidden incentive to slow the job down. We walk through your home, write a detailed scope, and give you one fixed price up front. The model gives you peace of mind on two fronts: you know exactly what the clean will cost before any work starts, and you know exactly what’s going to be cleaned, room by room. The cleaner ticks off each item on the checklist as they go, so when we’re done you can see for yourself that nothing was missed.

At typical hourly rates of $45–$60, a 1-hour clean lands in that range. With Green Koala you don’t pay by the hour — we walk through your Milawa home, agree a detailed scope, and give you one fixed price. The model gives you peace of mind on two fronts: you know exactly what the clean will cost before any work starts, and you know exactly what’s going to be cleaned, room by room.

In 3 hours we’d typically cover a full standard clean of a 3-bedroom Milawa home: kitchen surfaces, sink and floor, both bathrooms (toilet, basin, shower, mirror, floor), all bedrooms (dust, vacuum, beds), living areas (dust, vacuum, mop), bins out. The exact scope is agreed at your free walkthrough and the cleaner ticks off each item on the checklist as they go — so you know nothing was missed. We do everything properly — we move the chair to vacuum under it, we wipe the skirtings, we get behind the TV. The detailed scope of work covers it all and the cleaner ticks each item off as they go.

The 20-minute rule is a household-side trick: spend 20 focused minutes a day on one zone (kitchen, one bathroom, one living area) and the home never reaches a state where a big reset is needed. For the deeper work — moving furniture, getting behind appliances, skirtings, the things you’d rather not do — Green Koala comes in on a weekly, fortnightly, or monthly schedule with a fixed price agreed up front.

A 2-hour clean is a focused top-up: kitchen surfaces and floor, both bathrooms (toilet, basin, shower, mirror), bins out, vacuum and mop high-traffic areas.

Around $45–$60 per hour. Green Koala doesn’t bill that way though — we quote one fixed price up front after a free walkthrough of your home. We know what the market charges per hour. Our model gives you a better deal because you know exactly what’s included, exactly what it costs, and exactly when it’s done — no clock-watching, no surprises, no misunderstandings.
