Excel Cleaning has been keeping Melbourne homes spotless since 2013. What started as a small family business in Moonee Ponds has grown into one of the city’s most trusted cleaning teams, with over 500k + cleans completed across 385 suburbs.
We’re not a franchise and we’re not an app. Every cleaner on our team is hand-picked, police-checked, and fully insured. We match you with one person who learns your home and comes back every visit. No rotating rosters, no strangers, no surprises.
Whether it’s a weekly clean, a one-off reset, or help through a government-funded programme, the standard is the same: reliable, thorough, and respectful of your space.
With hundreds of cleaning companies in Melbourne, here’s what sets us apart.
You’re not getting a different stranger every week. We assign one cleaner to your home — they learn your preferences and get better over time.
We’ve been cleaning Melbourne homes for over a decade. We turn up when we say we will, and we do the job properly.
Every cleaner is fully insured and holds a current police check. Your home is in safe hands.
Book weekly, fortnightly, or one-off. Pause, change frequency, or cancel anytime. We keep our clients because they want to stay.
Your cleaner follows a room-by-room checklist you sign off on. If something’s not right, we’ll fix it free of charge within 24 hours.
From Toorak to Craigieburn, Brunswick to Berwick — we cover Melbourne’s inner, eastern, northern, western, and south-eastern suburbs.

House cleaning in Melbourne typically costs between $35 and $60 per hour depending on the size of the home, cleaning frequency, and the company you choose. At Excel Cleaning, we charge a flat hourly rate with a 2-hour minimum. Weekly and fortnightly clients receive priority pricing. Contact us for an exact price based on your home.
A standard clean for a 3-bedroom home takes 3 to 4 hours. Smaller apartments usually need 2 to 3 hours, while larger homes with 4 or more bedrooms can take 4 to 5 hours. The first visit typically takes longer because your cleaner is doing a thorough initial clean and learning the layout of your home.
No. Most of our regular clients give their cleaner a spare key or access code. Your cleaner will lock up when they leave. If you’d prefer to be home, that’s fine too — your cleaner will work around you.
Yes. We assign a dedicated cleaner to your home. They come on the same day, at the same time, every visit. If your regular cleaner is unavailable (sick or on leave), we’ll let you know in advance and send a trained replacement.
We bring our own professional-grade products and equipment. If you have preferences — for example, you’d like us to use eco-friendly products or avoid certain chemicals around pets — let us know and we’ll accommodate that.
We service over 385 suburbs across Melbourne, covering inner-city, eastern, northern, western, and south-eastern areas. Check our service areas page for the full list, or contact us to confirm we cover your suburb.

Learn moreA regular clean maintains your home. A deep clean resets it. We go beyond surfaces — inside ovens, behind furniture, under beds, into grout lines, up to ceiling fans. One-off or seasonal, our deep cleans take 6–8 hours and cover everything a standard clean doesn’t reach.
