Definition
House Cleaning in St. Louis, MO
Professional house cleaning involves the systematic sanitization of all living areas using professional-grade protocols. In St. Louis, services range from standard maintenance cleans — kitchens, bathrooms, floors, and dusting — to deep restoration cleans that address appliance interiors, grout lines, baseboards, and vents. Clean Town & Country specializes in steam-first systematic protocols, treating each home as a hygiene project rather than a surface wipe-down. Every dispatch deploys Certified Cleaning Specialists trained in 275°F thermal shock treatment and HEPA filtration, with documented post-construction experience across the St. Louis metro.

How Our Pricing Works
Every price we publish is a flat rate — no hourly clock, no surprise line items when we arrive. Here is exactly what determines what you pay.
1Home Size Sets the Base Price
Our pricing uses an architectural tier system — Apartment, Small, Medium, and Large — based on your number of bedrooms and bathrooms. A 1 bed / 1 bath apartment starts at $150 for a Standard Clean. A 3 bed / 2 bath home in the Medium tier is $230 for Standard, $380 for Deep Clean, or $530 for Move-In / Move-Out. You pay for scope of work, not for the clock running.
2Service Type Determines the Protocol — and the Price
We offer three service tiers. A Standard Clean covers all surfaces, floors, kitchens, and bathrooms — ideal for ongoing maintenance starting from $150. A Deep Clean adds appliance interiors, grout lines, baseboards, vents, and a 275°F steam sanitization pass — starting from $300. A Move-In / Move-Out Clean leaves every surface inspection-ready and starts from $450. The floors shown are the minimums — your exact price depends on your home's tier.
3Recurring Visits Save You Money on Every Clean
A maintained home requires less labor per visit. We pass that efficiency directly to you: weekly service receives a 20% per-visit discount, bi-weekly 15%, and monthly 10%. Your rate is locked from day one — no contracts, no surprise rate increases. The price you see when you book is the price you pay every time.
4Estates and Custom Projects Are Quoted Hourly
Homes with 5+ bedrooms, 4+ bathrooms, or over 5,000 square feet fall outside our flat-rate tiers. These are priced at $75 per hour per Certified Cleaning Specialist, with a written estimate provided before we schedule anything. Post-construction projects start at $450 due to the industrial HEPA equipment and full 3-Phase Protocol required. There are no hidden charges on top of the estimate.
Save More with Recurring Service
A maintained home takes less time to clean — and we pass that savings to you. Your rate is locked from day one, no contracts required.

Why St. Louis House Cleaning Costs Vary — and What You're Actually Paying For
Most cleaning services are priced by the hour. We price by the outcome. Our 3-Phase Protocol (Rough Clean → Detail Clean → Final Inspection) ensures every surface — and the air above it — meets a consistent standard before we leave. That thoroughness takes longer upfront, but means your home stays cleaner between visits and you always know exactly what you paid for.
Post-Construction Minimum: $450
Every post-construction dispatch deploys industrial HEPA air scrubbers, negative air containment, particulate verification, and specialized protective equipment. The $450 minimum covers this full 3-Phase Protocol — it's not comparable to general cleaning pricing. We work directly with general contractors and provide COI documentation within 24 hours.
