Pick a time, get matched with a vetted local cleaner, and come home to a place that finally feels like yours again.
Choose your date and see the price upfront — no phone calls, no callbacks. That means you can book from the ferry and be done before it docks.
A police-checked professional who knows compact Inner West homes — so small spaces get proper attention, and strata access is handled without fuss.
Walk in, put the keys down, and exhale. Ask for the same cleaner each visit and they'll learn exactly how you like things done.

Thank you for the excellent cleaning service. Everything looks spotless, and I really appreciate your hard work!
My cleaner of 8 years recently retired and I had to find a new one. I searched online and came across Simply Maid. Given the positive reviews online, I decided to give them a go.<br><br>I organised a deep initial clean for 3 pm on a Saturday. Three cleaners arrived right on time and eager to clean. Within an hour, my 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment was spotless.<br><br>I was very impressed and will be organising a more regular arrangement.
These guys are great. They are thorough and you have an opportunity for feedback after each service so they can redress any issues you may have - this is the most important thing as far as I'm concerned, because it means they only get better over time.<br><br>Easy to contact them by sms, phone, or email. Payments and services are automatic and easily cancelled via a web app.<br><br>Relatively expensive compared to others, but money well spend in my view!
Amazing service, this company goes above and beyond.
Simply Maid have cleaned my apartment in Rose Bay, Sydney twice now and both times have done an excellent job. They arrive on time (en-masse) and just get on with it.
Fantastic service, punctual, very thorough cleaning service. The result was a spotless house and the staff are very, very friendly. Thanks to Caroline for booking me in at short notice and for the cleaning team, they really went above and beyond. Extremely happy customer, highly recommended.
Simply Maid were very thorough and did a great job. We have just finished some renovations so they really helped smarten the place up after all the contractor chaos.
Super friendly team. Very efficient and thorough ... the Simply Maid team came, cleaned and left ... my house sparkling and clean ... thank you team. I will definitely use you again.
Good service, on time
Huy is awesome. The company is trustworthy and has a great customer service. I highly recommend it!
Picture stepping off the ferry at Balmain East wharf, walking up the hill, and opening your door to a home that smells fresh and feels done. No sponge in hand. No weekend lost. That's the whole point.
Most homes we clean here are one- and two-bedroom apartments and snug workers' terraces on the point. Compact places show every crumb, so the work is in the detail — skirting boards, shower glass, the kitchen you actually cook in. Our cleaners know how to handle strata buildings, lockboxes, and streets where parking takes patience.
We've been cleaning Balmain East homes since 2018, with over 140 cleans on record — mostly standard cleans, plus hourly and deep cleans. One deep-clean customer told us: "You did an excellent job, we'd be very happy to hire you again. Thank you very much!" Another put it simply: "Amazing as usual... our house is so beautiful after a simply maid visit!" Today, 63 vetted cleaners cover the 2041 postcode, with the nearest about 15 minutes away.
Book once and see how it feels to come home, exhale, and do nothing. Most people tell us the same thing: "I wish I'd done it sooner."
Balmain East sits on a quiet harbourside peninsula at the end of Darling Street — a mix of compact apartments, sandstone cottages and workers' terraces, home to ferry commuters and long-time locals alike.
