House cleaning FAQ
Straight answers about how Sunday Best Cleaning Co. prices, cleans and books homes in Katy and west Houston.
General
How much does house cleaning cost in Katy, TX?
Sunday Best publishes flat prices. On a typical 3 bed / 2 bath home (about 1,800 to 2,100 sq ft): first standard clean $185; recurring $149 weekly, $165 every two weeks, $185 monthly; deep clean $355; move-in or move-out clean $385. Smaller and larger homes are on our pricing table. Founding members can prepay 4 cleans for $640.
Do you add sales tax?
No. Texas does not list residential house cleaning as a taxable service (it taxes janitorial work on nonresidential property), so we do not add tax to residential cleaning. Some local companies quote '+8.25% tax'; our price is the full price.
Which areas do you serve?
We are booking now in Katy (77494, 77450, 77493, 77449), Cinco Ranch, Fulshear (77441) and Richmond (77406, 77407). Cypress, West Houston and the Energy Corridor, and north Sugar Land open next, then Memorial, Rosenberg and the rest of Sugar Land. Outside those areas, ask anyway and we will tell you honestly.
Do I need to be home?
No. You can leave a door code, lockbox or key. You will get a confirmed arrival window by text, and we text when we finish.
What is not included in a standard clean?
Inside the fridge, oven, cabinets and dishwasher, interior windows, blinds, and hand-wiped baseboards are not part of a standard clean. Each is a listed add-on (for example inside the fridge $35, interior windows $45), or included in a deep or move-out clean as described on each service page.
What if I am not happy with something?
Tell us within 24 hours with a photo if you can. If something on the checklist was missed, we come back and re-clean that area free.
How do I pay?
By card through a secure online link. Single cleans are paid per visit; the founding-member package (4 cleans for $640) is paid up front.
Do you clean homes with pets?
Yes. Tell us about your pets when you book. Homes with shedding pets have a $20 pet fee because the extra hair takes extra time.
Are you a real local company?
Yes. Sunday Best Cleaning Co. is a new residential cleaning company based in Katy, TX (77494), launched October 1, 2026. We are building it in public, including the real numbers, so you can see exactly how a new local cleaning company is run.
Do you do commercial or office cleaning?
Not right now. We clean homes only.
House Cleaning
What is included in a standard house clean?
Kitchen counters, sink, stovetop and the outside of appliances; bathrooms including toilets, tubs, showers, glass and mirrors; dusting of every reachable surface; vacuuming and mopping all floors; beds made; trash emptied. Inside appliances, inside cabinets, interior windows and blinds are add-ons, listed with prices on our pricing page.
How long does a standard clean take?
It depends on the size and condition of the home. For a typical 3 bed / 2 bath home in reasonable shape, plan on a few hours. We give you an arrival window, not a stopwatch: the visit ends when the checklist is done.
Do you bring your own supplies?
Yes. We bring cleaning products and equipment. If you prefer we use specific products in your home, leave them out and let us know when you book.
Recurring House Cleaning
Is there a contract for recurring cleaning?
No. Recurring service is pay-as-you-go with no long-term contract. The separate founding-member package (4 cleans for $640) is paid up front, and that is clearly marked when you choose it.
Will I get the same cleaner every time?
That is the goal, and we plan routes around it. If your regular cleaner is sick or away, we will tell you ahead of time and send someone working from the same checklist.
What if I need extra work on one visit?
Add it when we confirm the visit: inside the fridge ($35), inside the oven ($35), interior windows ($45), sheets changed ($15) and other add-ons are priced on our pricing page.
Deep Cleaning
Is inside the oven and fridge part of a deep clean?
Not by default. Inside the fridge and inside the oven are $35 add-ons each, and inside cabinets is $45. Keeping them optional is how we keep the base deep-clean price fair. Move-out cleans of empty homes include them.
How long does a deep clean take?
Longer than a standard clean, usually most of a day for a 3 bed / 2 bath home depending on condition. We confirm an arrival window by text and finish when the checklist is complete.
Do I need a deep clean before recurring service?
Only if your home needs it. If it has been more than a month or two since a professional clean, a deep clean first means your recurring visits keep it there instead of catching up.
Move-In & Move-Out Cleaning
Is move-in cleaning the same as move-out cleaning?
Yes, it is the same empty-home checklist and the same price. Move-in cleans are popular for new construction and resale homes before furniture arrives.
Can you work with my realtor or property manager?
Yes. We can coordinate access with a lockbox or agent and send the completion photos to whoever needs them.
How soon can you come?
Tell us your move date when you request a quote. We confirm the earliest available day by text. Booking a few days ahead gives you the most choice.
First-Time Cleaning
Do I have to sign up for recurring after the first clean?
No. Book a single clean and decide after. If you like the result, switching to recurring visits is one text away.
Can I be home during the first clean?
Of course. You are welcome to show us around on the first visit, then leave a door code for future visits.
