Clean Spaces. Happy Minds.

The Feathery Duster Co. rates are as follows:

Cleaning:

$45 per hour for regular cleans (weekly; bi-weekly or monthly) with a minimum clean of 3 hours.

Kitchen & Pantry Organization:

This can be quoted as a separate job to the regular cleaning and is subject to size and work required.

This is always a separate task and cannot be added on as an extension to the regular clean time.

Bathroom Organization:

This can be quoted as a separate job to the regular cleaning and is subject to size and work required. Typically this can be added on as an extension to the regular clean time.

Home Tidies & Organization:

This can be quoted as a separate job to the regular cleaning and is subject to size and work required. Typically this can be added on as an extension to the regular clean time.

For all organization projects, I use my hourly rate as a guideline. Every home is different—room sizes, the amount of sorting needed, the level of decluttering, and how much movement or rearranging is required can vary widely. Because of this, there’s no truly accurate one-size-fits-all price. Using an hourly structure is both fairer and more cost-effective for my clients, ensuring you only pay for the time your specific project actually needs.

I believe an hourly rate provides the fairest and most transparent pricing structure for both you and me. Every home is different — layout, lifestyle, cleaning needs, and levels of upkeep vary greatly — so a flat-rate based solely on house size doesn’t accurately reflect the true time or work required.

Because you will always have only me personally cleaning your home, there are no additional labor costs, overhead, or staff-related expenses built into the price. This means I don’t need to inflate my rates to cover a team or unpredictable variables. You’re simply paying for the actual time and care your home needs — nothing more, nothing less.

I always aim to be fair and transparent with my pricing. If your first clean takes longer than the estimated time we discussed during the meet & greet, I will absorb the cost for the extra time for that visit up to 30 minutes. I will (subject to schedule) attempt to complete the clean, or prioritize the key areas.

Afterward, I’ll let you know which areas required more attention than expected so we can adjust going forward. For future cleans, we can decide together whether you’d prefer to:

a) increase the scheduled (and paid) cleaning time to accommodate the extra work, or b) keep the original time and simply skip or reduce certain agreed-upon tasks to stay within your budget.

This ensures you always know exactly what to expect—no surprises, and a cleaning plan that works for your home and your needs.

If your clean takes less time than the estimate given during the meet & greet, I’ll use the extra time during that first visit to take care of complimentary bonus details. This might include things like tidying, giving the laundry sink a deep scrub, freshening bathroom grout, or tackling limescale on a kitchen tap.

As I get to know your home, I’ll naturally spot little areas that could use extra attention, and I’m always happy to address them during your scheduled time. I will never leave a clean early.

If I consistently find that the full quoted time isn’t needed, I’ll let you know.

From there, we can either reduce the scheduled time (and price) or decide on small additional tasks you’d like me to incorporate to make the most of your visit.

I will take Cash, Check or Zelle. All payment terms will be on the invoice supplied prior to the clean.

For your first clean as a new client, a $70 deposit is required to secure your appointment. This deposit is simply a way to ensure that the time I set aside for your home is fully protected and helps prevent situations where work is completed but payment isn’t received. The deposit is not an additional fee—it is credited directly toward your final bill on the day of your clean.

Once we’ve established a comfortable working relationship, payment in full will be due within 2 days of each clean or completed job.

For clients who are part of the Terris Wandering Paws family no deposit will be required. Payment will be due within 2 days of each clean or completed job.

Organization and decluttering services will be invoiced under the same payment terms.
