For a one-bedroom apartment with one bathroom, Lime Cleaning’s public booking form currently shows $179 for one-time Regular Cleaning, $161.10 per biweekly visit, or $152.15 per weekly visit, before tax and extras. A one-time Deep Cleaning example for the same bedroom and bathroom count is $269 before tax.
These are Lime Cleaning quote examples checked on November 11, 2026. They describe our own prices rather than a citywide market average. Your service, bathroom count, additional rooms, home condition and selected extras matter. This guide explains how to compare the options and plan a recurring budget before choosing an appointment.
Lime Cleaning serves Manhattan, Brooklyn and selected Queens neighborhoods. Check your cleaning price and booking options, or request help with a quote for an unusual layout or specific requirements.
The examples below use the same assumptions: Regular Cleaning, one bathroom, one kitchen, and no selected extras. Our published package-pricing guidance applies to homes of 1,500 square feet or less; larger homes need a quote that reflects their full size. The Regular Cleaning form groups a studio and a one-bedroom apartment together. Prices are per visit, before tax. Review the full booking total for your selected service, and read the extra-time conditions below.
On smaller screens, scroll the tables sideways to see every column.
| Home size | One-time | Weekly | Every two weeks | Every four weeks |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio or 1 bedroom | $179.00 | $152.15 | $161.10 | $170.05 |
| 2 bedrooms | $209.00 | $177.65 | $188.10 | $198.55 |
| 3 bedrooms | $239.00 | $203.15 | $215.10 | $227.05 |
| 4 bedrooms | $269.00 | $228.65 | $242.10 | $255.55 |
Source: Lime Cleaning’s public booking form, checked November 11, 2026. These are examples, not a quote for every home of that bedroom count. They do not include extra bathrooms, added services, or any additional scope that your home requires. No promotional code was used.
Include every bathroom and additional room you want cleaned. A two-bedroom apartment with a separate office and two bathrooms should not be compared with the two-bedroom, one-bathroom example without accounting for those differences. For larger apartments, multiple levels or a layout that does not fit the form, request a quote before scheduling.
The public booking form also offers Hourly cleaning with a three-hour minimum. For three hours and no extras, the checked quote is $180 before tax for one-time service, equivalent to $60 per hour. The same three hours on a weekly schedule is $153 before tax, equivalent to $51 per hour.
Compare an hourly quote with a package using both the work requested and the time allowed. Ask which priorities can be covered in your selected time, and how additional time would be charged. A three-hour hourly booking is not a promise that every task in every home can be completed within that time.
New York City’s combined sales tax rate is 8.875%. For the $180 one-time, three-hour Hourly cleaning example, tax is $15.98 when rounded to the nearest cent, giving a total of $195.98 including tax, with no extras or tip. Review your selected booking’s final total before confirming.
A lower price per visit does not necessarily mean a lower monthly bill. Weekly service costs less per appointment in these examples, but you receive more appointments. Compare the level of upkeep you want with the total budget you are comfortable maintaining.
For the studio/one-bedroom, one-bathroom example, the following estimates spread a 52-week schedule across 12 months:
| Schedule | Example price per visit | Visits in 52 weeks | Average monthly budget |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weekly | $152.15 | 52 | $659.32 |
| Biweekly | $161.10 | 26 | $349.05 |
| Every four weeks | $170.05 | 13 | $184.22 |
Budget calculation: price per visit × visits in 52 weeks ÷ 12. These are planning examples, not monthly subscription charges. Taxes, extras, tips and a possible initial deep clean are excluded. Actual calendar-month spending depends on appointment dates, changes and the number of visits.
Every four weeks is not the same as once per calendar month. For a 52-week planning period, budget for 13 four-weekly visits rather than 12 calendar-month visits. The public form currently labels this option “Every 4 Weeks.” Check the selected interval when planning what you may think of as monthly cleaning.
If floors, a frequently used kitchen or shared bathrooms need attention again well before two weeks have passed, weekly cleaning may be the more useful schedule. It can suit a busy household that wants less cleaning to carry between professional visits. Everyday spills, dishes and putting belongings away still need attention between appointments.
Biweekly cleaning can balance regular professional upkeep with a smaller ongoing budget than weekly appointments. It may suit a household that is comfortable handling the kitchen, bathroom touch-ups and visible mess during the intervening week. The right choice depends on how the home is used, not simply its number of bedrooms.
Every-four-week cleaning may suit a lightly used home or someone who does more cleaning themselves. If buildup accumulates between visits, discuss the home’s condition and appropriate service rather than selecting a lighter package solely for its price. Review the full Regular Cleaning service and recurring options before booking.
Compare service scope before comparing totals. These one-time examples use a one-bedroom home with one bathroom, one kitchen and no selected extras:
| Service | Example before tax | How to decide |
|---|---|---|
| Regular Cleaning | $179 | Routine upkeep of kitchens, bathrooms, floors and living spaces. |
| Deep Cleaning | $269 | More detailed attention to buildup and areas that routine upkeep can miss. |
| Deep Cleaning Plus | $359 | Everything in Deep Cleaning, plus the interiors of the first refrigerator, first oven and kitchen cabinets. |
| Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning | $359 | Cleaning around the handoff between homes; describe whether the space is empty and what remains. |
Deep Cleaning includes interior-window cleaning and more detailed work such as dusting baseboards and cleaning reachable areas. Deep Cleaning Plus includes all Deep Cleaning tasks and adds cleaning inside the first refrigerator, first oven and kitchen cabinets. These interior-cleaning tasks distinguish Plus from the standard Deep Cleaning package. Let us know if you have additional appliances so your quote reflects the work you need.
With Lime Cleaning’s Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning, cleaning inside the first refrigerator and first oven is included. An additional refrigerator or oven incurs an extra charge. Tell us about additional appliances and the apartment’s condition when arranging the visit.
Some items shown in a shared extras list may already be included in your selected package. Check the package details and ask us to confirm anything unclear before adding a service. This helps you compare the work you need without assuming that every package has identical inclusions.
Lime Cleaning brings cleaning products and tools, with exceptions including a vacuum, bucket, step stool and toilet brush. The booking form currently lists Vacuum Delivery at $30 before tax as an optional extra, checked November 11, 2026. Confirm the equipment arrangements for your appointment. Eco-friendly cleaning products are available upon request; review any selected option in your quote.
No. These are Lime Cleaning’s observed quote examples. Independent cleaners, hourly services and companies with different inclusions are not directly interchangeable. We have not calculated a citywide market average from a few advertised prices.
Bedroom count is one input. More bathrooms, extra rooms, requested tasks and the condition of the home can change the quote. Describe the full space instead of relying on the rental listing’s bedroom count alone.
The appropriate first service depends on the home’s condition. If you are unsure whether Regular Cleaning is sufficient, tell us about the areas needing attention before booking. Do not assume a deep clean is mandatory for every new recurring customer.
Cleaning packages include an allowance of labor hours for the selected service and home size. If the home’s condition or additional tasks require more time, an extra charge may apply. Our published package-pricing notes state $25 per additional 30 minutes per cleaner. Hourly bookings are charged for additional hours separately. Describe buildup and priority tasks before booking, and ask us to clarify any extra-time costs for your visit.
We understand the importance of consistency. For recurring cleanings, we aim to assign the same cleaner whenever possible. You can also request a preferred cleaner, subject to availability. While occasional scheduling changes may be necessary, we’re committed to maintaining consistent service quality.
The cancellation fee is $45 per cleaner within 48 hours, increasing to $90 per cleaner within 24 hours. Keep the appointment time and number of cleaners in mind when reviewing the service terms.
Choose your service, enter the full home size, select your preferred frequency and review any extras. For help deciding between weekly and biweekly visits, tell us which tasks become difficult to keep up with between cleanings.
We serve Manhattan, Brooklyn and selected Queens neighborhoods, including Long Island City, the Upper East Side and Park Slope. These are examples of our coverage; see the full Areas We Serve page.
