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.

FAQ — Maid Service Garwood
What does maid service in Garwood cost?
Weekly visits start at $120–$160 for a 1–2 bedroom apartment, $160–$220 for a 2–3 bedroom house, $200–$280 for 3–4 bedrooms and $260–$380 for 4–5 bedrooms; biweekly and monthly visits cost a little more per visit. We confirm your rate before the first visit.
Which rooms and tasks does Garwood maid service cover?
The recurring room checklist on this page: kitchens, bathrooms, floors and reachable dusting. No dishes or laundry; linens are $20 per bedroom on request; appliance, cabinet and storage interiors cost extra.
Why do Garwood families keep their recurring plan with us?
Daniela Marque, the owner, comes back with the same small crew every visit; no rotating teams, no subcontractors, no call center. NJ MBE certified. Missed tasks flagged within 24 hours are re-cleaned free, and photos are taken only at your request before we start.
When can a Garwood cleaning plan start?
Tell us the rhythm you want and a start date. We set the recurring list, the rate and a weekday before the first visit, and reply usually the same day or the next.
Is it fine to miss one week of Garwood maid service?
Yes. Tell us ahead of time and the plan resumes on the next visit.
What happens if I change from biweekly to weekly in Garwood?
The new rhythm gets a new quote, because the rate depends on how often we come.
Are extras on a Garwood maid visit priced separately?
Yes. Extras such as a $20-per-bedroom bed-linen change are priced per visit and agreed before the crew arrives.
Does Garwood maid service include childcare or live-in help?
No. The crew comes for scheduled cleaning visits only.
What does a Garwood maid plan cost for a house with three or four bedrooms?
A 3–4 bedroom house is $200–280 per visit weekly, $220–300 every other week and $240–340 monthly. Size and condition decide where in the range your home sits. Appliance and cabinet interiors, or any other extra you add, are priced per visit, so a one-off extra does not change the regular plan price for the weeks after it.
How much warning do you need to move a Garwood maid visit?
Please give us at least 48 hours before the visit you want to move. That lets the crew offer the time to someone else and find you another weekday between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. If you want to change the whole rhythm of the plan, for instance going from weekly to monthly, that is re-quoted rather than moved.
Will you change the sheets during Garwood maid service?
Yes, for $20 per bedroom when you ask and leave a clean set out for us. Laundry itself, meaning washing, drying and folding, is not part of maid service, and the dishes are left for you as well. If you want the sheets changed on every visit, say so when the plan is set so it is added to each visit's price from the start.
