"The kitchen and bathrooms looked brand new."
I hired DM House Cleaning for a deep cleaning before hosting guests, and they exceeded my expectations. The kitchen and bathrooms looked brand new. It’s great to find a dependable house cleaning service in Union County that really cares about quality. I will definitely use them again.

Absolutely amazing experience! The team was friendly, respectful, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. You can tell they truly care about their work and their customers. Walking into my home after they finished was the best feeling—everything was fresh, clean, and sparkling. I’ll definitely be using them again and recommending them to friends and family!

Helpful guide: Weekly, Biweekly or Monthly Cleaning?
Before we confirm your appointment
Cleaning products and vacuum
On the first visit we bring all the cleaning products and our own vacuum. On later visits we still bring our vacuum, and we use your products: you can buy the ones you like, or we can buy them for you and give you the receipt.
Payment
We accept Zelle, Venmo and checks.
Weekday appointments
Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Time for the visit
It depends on the size and condition of the home. We don’t rush: Daniela checks every room before the crew moves on to the next, so larger homes and first visits take longer.
Tipping
Tips are never expected, but always appreciated.
Changing an appointment
Please give us 48 hours’ notice so we can offer the time to another family.
Optional keys and access
You do not need to be home if authorized entry is arranged. Providing a key or access code is optional and your choice. If you give us a key for recurring visits, we keep it on file, labeled, for your scheduled visits and return it whenever you ask or when service ends. We only accept one if you choose to give it to us. Share door, lockbox or alarm codes privately when arranging access, not in the quote form.
Missed agreed tasks
Report a missed agreed task within 24 hours of the visit; we will re-clean that task at no charge.
A return visit requires authorized access. The guarantee provides a re-clean, not a refund.

Questions about Maid Service in Colonia
How is recurring maid service in Colonia priced?
Visits start from $120. Size, bathroom count, condition, frequency, the rooms included and extras set your quote. Tasks and the exact price are fixed before booking; no single price is applied to every recurring visit.
Which tasks come with every Colonia maid visit?
The checklist on this page: kitchen surfaces and appliance fronts, bathrooms, reachable dusting, baseboards, inside windowsills, fans in reach, floors, high-touch spots and trash. The rooms and tasks in your quote shape each visit, and photos are taken only on request before we start.
Weekly, biweekly or monthly: how should a Colonia household decide?
Base it on how much the rooms get used and how much you clean between visits. Busy households often lean weekly, biweekly gives steady upkeep, and monthly can suit homes kept up between appointments. Priorities, condition, budget and open dates are discussed before any plan is confirmed.
Must maid service in Colonia begin with a deep clean?
Usually, yes. Most first visits start with a deep clean. If our crew has inspected your home before we agree the work, the first visit can be a regular cleaning.
Are dishes, laundry or linen changes part of maid service?
Dishes and the washing, drying or folding of clothes are not included, and laundry and mudroom areas get a light tidy only. Bed linen is changed for a $20 per bedroom fee if requested. Appliance, cabinet or storage insides are extra and agreed before booking.
Can finished basement rooms be added in Colonia?
Yes; name the finished basement rooms and floors to include. Access, condition, tasks and price are confirmed in your quote. Surface and floor cleaning excludes humidity checks and moisture remediation.
Which crew shows up at my Colonia home for regular visits?
Daniela Marque and one small, unchanging crew handle the rhythm, never subcontractors, and DM House Cleaning carries NJ MBE certification. If a checklist item was missed, report it within 24 hours and it is cleaned again at no charge under the guarantee terms.
What should I decide before regular Colonia visits start?
Which rooms are on the list, whether stairs, a home office or a lower level are included, and the rhythm: weekly, every two weeks or monthly. Changing that rhythm later is re-quoted, and extras are priced per visit.
How do I start visits or change my priorities?
Send the frequency and date you want, the home's size, bathroom count, rooms and entry details. Dates depend on availability we confirm. Pick up loose items before the crew arrives and let us know in advance about changes, product preferences, pets or extras.
Is it fine to pass on one week of my Colonia maid service?
Yes. Tell us ahead, and the regular rhythm resumes at the following visit.
My Colonia household now needs weekly visits instead of biweekly. What happens?
We can change it; a new rhythm gets a new quote before it starts.
Does Colonia maid service include childcare or a live-in helper?
No. The crew cleans on scheduled visits only; it does not live in and does not look after children.
How are one-off extras priced on Colonia regular visits?
Each extra is priced for the visit you add it to, and agreed before that visit.
