Pick a time, get matched with a local professional, and come home to a place that finally feels like yours again.
Enter your Deakin address and see your price straight away — no phone calls, no callbacks, no waiting. Booking takes less time than the walk from the Deakin shops to your front door.
We pair you with a police-checked professional based nearby — Dorji and Kinley work out of neighbouring Curtin. Keep the same cleaner each visit and they learn your home, so you never have to explain twice.
Walk in after work to fresh floors, a spotless kitchen and made beds. Your weekend is yours again — that's the whole point.
The most common thing new customers tell us: "I wish I'd done it sooner."
Our promise to Deakin customers
If anything about your clean isn't right, tell us within 48 hours and we'll come back and re-clean it — free, no questions asked. Not a discount, not a credit. A real person back in your home, fixing it. That's how confident we are.
Care & Cover™
Every cleaner who enters your Deakin home is police-checked and trained before their first job. You're backed by $10M public liability insurance through Chubb and up to $2,000 in damage protection. We don't expect anything to go wrong — but if it does, you're covered, and that's what lets you relax.

Sonam did a brilliant clean and was really kind to my 90 year old Mum Mum said her bathroom was so clean and smelt beautiful
Amazing job
Jimmy and Bhindia were great. Punctual, polite, efficient and did a wonderful job on our flat. Very pleased indeed.
Both Chris and Akemi are outstanding cleaners. They deliver high level results consistently and both are intent on exceeding our expectations each and every time.
They were phenomenal!!!
fantastic clean as always
Wonderful service as always.
It's always a pleasure to come home to a lovely clean house.
I'm making it very hard for my team at the moment with a lot of extra stuff cluttering up my space but they have been doing a great job working around that and still leaving my house lovely and clean.
Our cleaner was exceptional.
Working long hours in Barton or up on Capital Hill, then spending your one day off cleaning? Even a one-bedroom unit finds a way to eat a whole Saturday. The mental load never turns off — and a compact space shows every crumb.
Deakin sits between Parliament House and Red Hill, and its homes reflect that. There are apartments and townhouses close to the Deakin shops, and wide, leafy streets of larger houses toward the embassy belt. Cleaning here ranges from small kitchens where every surface counts to end-of-lease turnarounds for renters across postcode 2600. We clean both, properly.
Four active, vetted cleaning professionals cover Deakin. Two of them, Dorji and Kinley, are based in neighbouring Curtin — just a few minutes down Adelaide Avenue. We've cleaned homes in Deakin, and we also service Barton, Parkes, Capital Hill and Deakin West. Every professional is police-checked and covered by $10M public liability insurance, so you know exactly who's walking through your door.
Then comes the good part: you walk in after work, the benches gleam, the floors are done, and your weekend belongs to you again. Most customers tell us the same thing — "I wish I'd done it sooner."
Deakin is one of Canberra's inner-south suburbs, wedged between Parliament House and Red Hill — a mix of compact units near the local shops, townhouses, and grand homes along the embassy belt.
