Cost for once a week home-cleaning?

By sefri

Hello,

I am new in Qatar and I will be bringing my family in September.

I have a big family, and my wife will need help to clean the apartment I have rented.

I am looking for someone (female) to help her once a week (whole day).

The apartment has 3 bedrooms, 1 living room, 3 toilets and a kitchen, but it is not very big (less than 100 squared meters). It is near Markhia roundabout.

There are no carpets and all floors are ceramic tiles.

How much would it cost for a once a week cleaning service?

Also, if you know any trusted person for a reasonable price, please provide me with their contact number.

I will need this person before end of August to clean the apartment for first time.

Thanks.

Dont you know? Everything in Qatar is 10,000 riyals now.

Cant believe people are still contemplating coming to Qatar. And you have a big family ? GOOD LUCK! Hope your making at least 100,000 QR a month cuz if your not you will be living like a beggar.

Ismael, She's pretty unreliable, so I don't recommend her, but I'm on my own so I don't mind too much if she comes on a different day. With your family here I don't think she'd fit in too well, but will pass on your number anyway. Just don't take Wednesday - That's my day ;o)

I pay 25 QR an hour and then 25QR taxi fare. Sorry, my lady is fully booked. Easiest thing is to ask neighbors, co-workers etc for their maid's number or see if their maids know anybody.

I used to pay my part time cleaner QR 20 per hour for the one day she worked for me plus another QR 20 each way for the taxi (even though she walked!). I don't know if this was cheap or expencive, it was just what she asked for and it was okay for me.

My place was a 5 bed villa and it took her 7 or 8 hours. I doubt it would take so long for smaller apartment.

Hi baldrick2dogs,

If they are good and trustworthy, can you give me their contact number, or give them my number and let them contact me?

Thanks.

I would still like more offers -if available- from other members please...
