Cleaning across Ōtautahi

  • Christchurch has two housing stories running side by side. Post-rebuild homes through Wigram, Halswell, Prestons and out to Rolleston are new, big and open plan, with a lot of hard flooring, glass and stainless steel that shows every mark. The older streets in Fendalton, Merivale, St Albans and Cashmere hold character homes with sash windows, high skirtings and detail that takes time to do properly.
  • Then there is the weather. A nor’wester puts a film of fine dust over everything, and homes up on the Port Hills or out at Sumner and New Brighton deal with salt and sand as well. It is the sort of thing you only build into a cleaning routine if you actually live here, which is why we match you with a cleaner from your part of the city rather than dispatching from one base.

Cleaning services available in Christchurch

Select the service that works best for you:

Regular Clean Weekly or Fortnightly

From

$99*

2 hrs

Weekly or fortnightly, with the same cleaner each visit. Two hours covers a townhouse or a smaller home, three hours suits most of the newer family houses in the south and west. You set what gets done every time and what rotates through, and you can change it whenever you like.
*Pricing does vary according to your suburb location.
One-Off Clean

From

$255

3 hrs

A single clean for a spring clean and a catch-up when you are too busy to tackle the cleaning regularly. Christchurch customers book one before a house is listed, after a renovation, ahead of family arriving, or when you need a helping hand. Three hours is the minimum so the job gets done rather than rushed.
End of Tenancy Clean
For tenants handing back and need a deep clean. Covers the oven and rangehood filter, inside cupboards and drawers, skirtings, window tracks, interior glass, bathroom scale and surface mould, and floors throughout. Book it once the furniture is out so nothing is left behind it. Also called a bond clean or a move out clean.

Our Christchurch Team Are Here To Help

One cleaner, or a team

You choose how your clean is done. Most of our clients have one regular cleaner. If you’d rather the job was finished faster, or you have a larger home, we can match you with a team of two instead. Either way, you pay for the hours actually worked in your home, and it’s the same cleaner or team who comes back next time. They learn where things live and what you care about, which is the part a rotating crew never gets to

One named cleaner, the same person every visit

Charged for the hours you book, not combined crew hours

Background checked before they are matched to your home

Covered by public liability insurance

A coordinator you can call when something changes

Pay after the clean, with no deposit

No lock-in contract

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How much does a house cleaner cost in Christchurch?

A regular clean starts from two hours and a one-off clean from three, and you pay for the hours your cleaner is actually in your home. Log on to see the current rates for your suburb before you book — no quote request, no call-back.

Yes, along with Prebbleton, West Melton, Templeton, Woodend and Pegasus. Availability depends on which cleaners are working near you, so enter your postcode when you book.

An end of tenancy clean covers the things a property manager checks at the final inspection: the oven and rangehood filter, inside all cupboards and drawers, skirting boards, window tracks and sills, interior glass, bathroom scale and surface mould, and every floor in the house. It works best once the furniture is out, so book it for after you’ve moved. Carpet steam cleaning and exterior windows aren’t included, so arrange those separately if your tenancy agreement requires them.

Yes. Regular cleans are matched to one cleaner who returns each week or fortnight. If the match is not right, tell your coordinator and we will place someone else with you rather than making you start the search again from the beginning.

No. Most Christchurch customers are at work. You can arrange a key or a lockbox with your cleaner once you have met them. It is worth being home for the first clean so you can walk through the house and set the priorities, then it is up to you from there.

Yes cleaners are police checked and background checked before being matched with a household, and the work is covered by public liability insurance.

I feel supported, not managed.

“I’ve worked on my own before, and it was stressful dealing with everything myself. With Absolute Domestics, I still choose my hours and clients, but I always have someone to help if something comes up. It feels like I’m running my own business without being left on my own.”

The flexibility actually works in real life.

“I’m a mum and I needed work that fits around school hours. Absolute Domestics made that possible. I can take school holidays off, increase my work when I want, and never feel pressured to do more than I’m comfortable with.”
