Montclair is an Essex County township that includes Upper Montclair; Wikipedia lists 6,216 students in the Montclair Public Schools' 11 schools in 2022–23.
Our crew is based in Kenilworth, NJ, and each routine visit is booked once the rooms, entry and weekday are agreed.
Set a Montclair routine by how the house is lived in: which floors, kitchens and baths need keeping up and how quickly dust returns. Weekly, every-other-week and monthly visits all follow one agreed list.
Areas and priorities
Tell the crew about pets, the rooms you care most about and how to get inside. The checklist is the job; dishes and laundry stay with you, a bed-linen change is $20 per bedroom when asked, and interiors are priced separately.
Address details
Send the street address in Montclair or Upper Montclair, the floors and your entry routine. Mention woodwork, tile or glass that needs care so the regular products suit it.
Prepare for the visit
- Set visits weekly, biweekly or monthly, whatever the household needs.
- Every visit works through the rooms and surfaces on the agreed checklist.
- Share pet details, entry arrangements and any product preferences.

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 Montclair
What does a Montclair maid service routine cost per visit?
Maid service in Montclair is priced from the home's size and condition. Prices start at $130 per visit; your exact rate is fixed from the rooms and tasks you ask for. Most of the rate comes down to square footage, bathrooms and whether the first visit is a deep clean or a routine one. Send for a free quote to see your exact rate.
What gets done on each Montclair maid visit?
Each maid visit works through the room-by-room checklist on this page. Laundry and dishwashing are not included. Ask and bed linens are changed for $20 per bedroom; appliance, cabinet and storage insides add to the maid-visit price. We confirm what's included before booking.
Who comes to my Montclair home on each regular visit?
The same people each time: Daniela Marque and a small crew she employs directly, with no subcontractors. The business is NJ MBE certified, and a routine task that slips past us is redone without charge when reported within 24 hours.
How soon can a Montclair maid routine start?
We review your request before confirming availability. Send your preferred date and any deadline; we confirm the appointment once the work, the way we get in and our availability are settled.
What should I tell you before starting a Montclair routine?
The rooms for every visit, the rhythm you want, who lets us in and any pets. A switch to a different rhythm later is re-quoted, and extras are priced per visit.
Is it all right to pass on one week of my Montclair routine?
Yes. Tell us ahead of time; with 48 hours' notice the visit can be moved or skipped without changing the plan.
What does weekly maid service cost for a Montclair house?
For a 2–3 bedroom house, weekly visits run $170–$230, biweekly $190–$250 and monthly $210–$290. The exact rate follows your room list and condition.
Can I change my Montclair routine from weekly to biweekly?
Yes. A new rhythm is simply re-quoted, and the new rate starts once you agree to it.
Are extras charged on every visit?
Extras such as the $20-per-bedroom bed-linen change are priced per visit, only when you ask for them.
Do you provide a live-in housekeeper or nanny?
No. DM House Cleaning offers scheduled cleaning visits only, with no live-in help and no childcare.

Yes. Daniela Marque works with one small crew she employs herself, so the faces at your door stay familiar from visit to visit.
