Average House Cleaning Prices in Maryland (2026)
Here are typical price ranges for professional house cleaning in the Maryland, DC, and Northern Virginia area:
- Studio / 1-bedroom apartment: $150 – $180 per standard clean
- 2-bedroom home: $180 – $230 per standard clean
- 3-bedroom home: $220 – $290 per standard clean
- 4-bedroom home: $270 – $360 per standard clean
- 5+ bedroom home: $340 – $480+ per standard clean
These are ranges for a standard recurring clean. First-time or one-time cleans typically cost 20–40% more due to the extra time required to get the home to a baseline standard.
Deep Cleaning Prices
A deep cleaning goes well beyond a standard clean — inside the oven, refrigerator, cabinets, grout scrubbing, and more. Typical prices:
- 2-bedroom home: $200 – $280
- 3-bedroom home: $260 – $360
- 4-bedroom home: $320 – $450
Move-Out Cleaning Prices
Move-out cleaning is the most thorough service — landlords expect pristine results. In cities like Rockville and Arlington, typical move-out cleaning prices range from $250 to $500 depending on square footage and condition of the property.
Recurring Cleaning Discounts
Most professional cleaning companies in Maryland offer recurring discounts:
- Weekly service: 20–25% off per visit vs. one-time rate
- Bi-weekly service: 10–15% off per visit
- Monthly service: 5–8% off per visit
Our recurring cleaning plans at Capital Clean Care lock in your discounted rate for as long as you're a client.
What Affects the Price?
- Square footage: Larger homes take more time and product
- Number of bathrooms: Bathrooms are the most labor-intensive rooms
- Condition: Homes that haven't been professionally cleaned recently require more work
- Pets: Pet hair and dander add time to every room
- Add-ons: Inside oven, inside refrigerator, laundry, window cleaning
- Location: Urban areas like Washington DC and Bethesda tend to have slightly higher rates than outer suburbs
