The typical figures are for Kuala Lumpur and the Klang Valley side of Selangor. Companies that sell by the hour, by the square foot or by package are converted to the same unit so the rows can be compared.
What the price usually includes, and what it does not
- Tools and cleaning products. Most rate cards show the session price without them and add RM30 or so per visit, or ask you to provide a vacuum, mop and detergents. With Home Services KL they are in the price.
- SST. Some companies quote before the 8% service tax and add it at checkout, so the figure on the page grows by 8% at checkout. Ask whether the figure is the final amount. The price we confirm on WhatsApp is the full amount.
- Transport. A few companies add a transport fee for areas outside their base. We quote one price for the job.
- Minimum booking. Two hours with two cleaners, or four hours with one cleaner, is the usual minimum for a regular session. Deep, move-out and post-renovation cleaning are priced per home rather than per hour.
- Weekend or evening surcharge. Uncommon in Kuala Lumpur for home cleaning, but check. We charge the same price on weekends and public holidays.
What changes the price
- Floor area and bedrooms. Deep and move-out cleaning are priced by size band; a regular session covers a home up to about 1,000 sqft and needs an extra hour above that.
- Condition. Months without a proper clean, a kitchen with built-up grease or stained grout turn a regular session into a deep clean.
- Furniture in or out. An empty unit is faster to clean than a furnished one, which is why move-out prices assume your belongings are packed and out of the way.
- Frequency. Weekly plans cost less per session at most companies, usually in exchange for a package paid up front. We price every session the same and do not ask for a contract.
- Team size. A 2-cleaner team finishes in half the time of one cleaner; a 3-bedroom deep clean usually gets three.
- What was done to the unit. After a renovation, a repaint and a full hack-and-retile are different jobs, which is why post-renovation cleaning is quoted from photos.
How we compiled these prices
We checked the published rate cards and pricing pages of 14 cleaning companies serving Kuala Lumpur in October 2026: company-run services, apps and booking platforms. Where a company prices by the hour, by the square foot or by package, we converted the figure to the unit in the table: a session of 2 cleaners x 2 hours for a home up to 1,000 sqft, or a home of the given size for deep and move-out cleaning. The typical figure is drawn from those rates and rounded to the nearest ten ringgit. Prices on other companies’ pages change, so treat the typical column as a guide to the level, not as a quote. Our own column is our rate card and is confirmed on WhatsApp before you book.
How to compare cleaning quotes in KL
- Ask for the number of cleaners and the hours, not just the price. RM140 for one cleaner for 4 hours and RM140 for two cleaners for 2 hours are the same amount of work done in half the time.
- Ask whether tools and products are included, or whether you are expected to provide them.
- Ask whether the figure is before or after SST.
- Check the size band. A 2-bedroom condo of 1,100 sqft may fall into a different row than a 2-bedroom of 900 sqft.
- Check what happens if something is missed. We send the cleaners back within 48 hours at no charge if a checklist item was skipped.
- Check how you pay. We take payment after the clean, by bank transfer to the Home Services KL company account.
Prices by type of cleaning
A regular session is the routine clean most households book weekly or every two weeks: kitchen surfaces, bathrooms, dusting, bins and floors. In Kuala Lumpur it typically costs RM140 plus supplies for 2 cleaners x 2 hours; with Home Services KL it is RM140 with supplies included, and RM60 for each extra hour for the pair. Details are on our part-time cleaner page.
Deep cleaning reaches what a routine session skips: the hood, grout, the inside of empty cabinets, window tracks and skirting boards. Kuala Lumpur rate cards typically ask RM390 for a studio or 1-bedroom and RM810 for a 3-bedroom. Ours is RM380 to RM750 by size, on our deep cleaning page.
Move-in or move-out cleaning is a full clean of an empty unit before a handover inspection. Typical Kuala Lumpur prices run from RM420 for a studio or 1-bedroom to RM850 for a 3-bedroom; ours are RM350 to RM700, on our move-in and move-out page.
Post-renovation cleaning has the widest spread of any service, because a repaint and a full retile leave very different amounts of dust and cement haze. For a 1,000 sqft condo the published figures sit around RM500, with published figures ranging from about half to nearly double that. We quote each job individually from the floor area and photos, on our post-renovation cleaning page.
Office cleaning is priced per visit for small offices and per month for daily contracts. A visit for an office up to 1,000 sqft typically costs RM130 in Kuala Lumpur; ours is RM150, on our office cleaning page.
