House cleaning is local. Tell us where you are and we show who is in your area, their real hourly rate and how far away they are.
Where are you?
Results are ranked by real distance, so we need a place to start from. An Eircode is most accurate; a town or area works too.

What is hourly house cleaning on Locufy?
One cleaner, by the hour — or a company for the big jobs
Hourly house cleaning is one local cleaner you book by the hour, at a rate they show up front. Most people book two or three hours, weekly or fortnightly, and keep the same cleaner. Deep cleans, end of tenancy, after builders, carpets, upholstery, ovens and windows are a different job: a cleaning company sends a team and quotes for the whole job, usually by the size of your home.

The rate you see is the rate you pay
Credit makes it lower
Cleaners set their own hourly rates. Locufy Credit comes off that rate automatically when you book — no codes, and it doesn't expire. Every referral and every review adds more.
- £10credit that lowers hourly service rates — sign up and download the app
- £10per friend — both of you
- £1for every review
To get your £10: sign up and download the Locufy app.
The credit lands in your account in the app and reduces your hourly rate.
Typically around 10% off the rate; the exact amount depends on the cleaner.

Hourly rate, distance, badges and reviews from booked jobs — side by side.
- 3

One-off or repeating. Instant Book confirms on the spot; others confirm your request. Extend during the job if you need to.

What protects you
The checks behind every booking
What we do before you book, and what happens if something goes wrong.
They prove who they are
Providers prove who they are with photo ID. We check it's really them — then the ID is deleted, not kept. The “ID checked” badge shows who has done it.
Garda vetting & references on request
Badges on the profile show which ones a cleaner has; the documents themselves are never published. Request them with one tap: if they're on file, they come straight to you.
Reviews with a make-it-right step
Under four stars, you're asked first whether to send it to the cleaner so they can put it right — and we follow it through. Sorted or not, you then leave whatever review you want.
Your number stays private
Calls and messages open once a booking is confirmed and run through Locufy, so you never have to hand out your number — unless you want to.
No-show protection
If a cleaner doesn't turn up, it's recorded. Three no-shows and they're suspended from Locufy for six months.
Hours that are real
Cleaners confirm their available hours every month, or they stop showing — so the people you see are actually taking work.
A cleaner without the Garda vetting or reference badge hasn't failed anything — they just haven't added it yet. You can always ask them to.
We're new, and we won't pretend otherwise
No invented ratings or “trusted by thousands” here — reviews appear as real customers leave them (see us on Trustpilot). We are growing area by area. None in yours yet? Tell us where you are and our team will go and find someone.
Questions about hourly cleaning
- Each cleaner sets their own rate and shows it on their profile, and your credit comes off it automatically.
- Most people book two or three hours. If it runs over, you can extend the hours during the job, and you only pay for the time used.
- It varies by cleaner. Once your booking is confirmed, messaging opens and you can agree supplies and what to focus on before they arrive.
- That is between you and your cleaner — agree key access in messages once the booking is confirmed.
- Yes — save or follow a cleaner and rebook them in a tap, weekly, fortnightly or monthly.
- Companies send a team and quote for the whole job — deep cleans, end of tenancy, after builders, carpets, upholstery, ovens, windows — usually by the size of your home, and some inspect first. Hourly service cleaners are one person you book by the hour, mostly for regular cleaning. See cleaning companies and quotes →
- Tell us what you need and where. Our team goes looking for cleaners in your area, adds them to Locufy and emails you when someone's bookable — we aim to do it within 24–48 hours.
