Standard House Cleaning in Richmond, VA

A standard clean is regular maintenance for a home that's already in good shape. Our team works through a detailed, room-by-room checklist every visit, kitchens, bathrooms, living areas and bedrooms, so your home stays consistently fresh between deeper cleans.

Starting at $185Typically 2–3 hours35-task checklist

Standard cleans are a true flat rate. The price you're quoted is the price you pay, and recurring plans are discounted: the more often we visit, the more you save.

Standard or deep?

If it has been more than a month or two since your last professional clean, start with a deep clean, then keep it up with standard visits.

  • On standard and deep cleans, trash liners, paper towels, fresh linens and towels need to be left out for us. On move in/out cleans we bring everything we need.
  • Shower and tub tile is scrubbed across the whole surface, not grout line by line, so deep-set stains in grout may not fully come out.
  • Garages and other unfinished areas aren't included by default. They can be added as an extra room.

What clients say about our Standard House Cleaning

Recurring cleaning
“I've used Brio for bi-weekly cleanings and the occasional deep clean since January and I've never been happier with a cleaning service. They're prompt, consistent, and easy to work with the couple of times I've had to reschedule around travel.”

Standard House Cleaning: common questions

How often should I book a standard clean?

Most homes do well on a bi-weekly schedule. Busy households, homes with kids or pets, and anyone who wants the place consistently guest-ready tend to prefer weekly. Smaller households often choose monthly (every 4 weeks).

Do I need to be home?

No. Many clients give us an entry method (a code, a lockbox, or an unlocked door) and come home to a finished clean. Just share the details when you book.

Do you bring your own supplies?

Yes. We bring all cleaning equipment and products, including commercial-grade vacuums for hardwood, tile, and carpet. We just ask you to leave out trash liners, paper towels, and fresh linens and towels.

Can I get the same team every visit?

We send the same team to recurring clients whenever possible. If a team change is needed for illness or vacation, we let you know in advance.

How is the price set?

Pricing is flat-rate, based on the size and condition of your home. You get a firm quote before you book, with no surprise charges.

Do recurring cleanings cost less?

Yes. We discount recurring service, and the more often we come the bigger the discount. Weekly saves the most, then every other week, then monthly (every 4 weeks).
