Cleaning service cost in Singapore (2026): regular, move-in and post-reno
Cleaning service cost in Singapore: typical hourly rates for part-time cleaners and published prices for move-in and post-renovation cleans by flat size.
Updated 2 min read
Your cleaning service cost in Singapore depends mostly on the type of clean, your home size and how dirty the job is. Here's what people typically pay in 2026, and how to get quotes you can compare.
Regular and part-time cleaning
For weekly or fortnightly help, most services charge by the hour:
- 2026 price guides put home cleaning at roughly S$20 to S$30 an hour.
- Most set a 3 to 4 hour minimum per visit.
- Recurring bookings are often 10 to 20% cheaper per hour than one-off visits.
A 4-hour fortnightly clean therefore costs roughly S$80 to S$120 a visit before GST, if the company is GST-registered.
Move-in, end-of-tenancy and deep cleans
One-off cleans are usually priced per job by flat size, with a crew of two or three working for several hours. They cover kitchens, bathrooms, floors, windows (inside), cabinets and fittings. Prices vary by provider, so ask for a per-job quote that lists what's included.

Post-renovation cleaning
After renovation, fine dust settles everywhere, so this is the most thorough clean:
| Home | Typical published range (2026) |
|---|---|
| 3-room HDB | about S$300 to S$450 |
| 4-room HDB | about S$250 to S$475 |
These are ranges from published guides and provider price lists, not quotes. Heavy dust, paint marks, high windows and cabinet interiors push the price up. See our post-renovation cleaning checklist for what a good clean covers.
How to compare cleaning quotes
- Same scope: give every company the same list of rooms and extras.
- Per job or per hour: for hourly pricing, ask how long they expect it to take.
- Equipment and supplies: who brings them?
- GST: is the price all-in?
- Re-clean policy: what happens if something's missed?
Cleaning businesses in Singapore are licensed by NEA, and cleaners' pay is set under the Progressive Wage Model, which is one reason very cheap quotes deserve a second look.

2026 price guides put home cleaning at roughly S$20 to S$30 an hour, usually with a 3 to 4 hour minimum per visit. Regular weekly or fortnightly bookings are often cheaper per hour than one-off visits.
How much does post-renovation cleaning cost for a 4-room HDB?
Published guides and provider price lists in 2026 mostly fall between about S$250 and S$475 for a 4-room HDB, depending on how much dust and debris is left and whether you want extras like cabinet interiors.

Not always. GST-registered companies add 9% GST, and some quote before GST. Ask for the all-in price when comparing quotes.
