Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before booking your cleaning.

How much does a cleaning cost?

Pricing depends on the type of cleaning, your home's size, and number of bedrooms and bathrooms. Use our instant estimate tool to get a price range in seconds.

Do I need to be home during the cleaning?

No. Many clients provide a key, door code, or lockbox access. We'll coordinate entry instructions with you when you book.

Do I need to provide cleaning supplies?

No, we bring our own supplies and equipment. If you have product preferences, just let us know and we'll do our best to accommodate.

How often can I schedule cleanings?

Weekly, biweekly, monthly, or one-time. Recurring plans can be adjusted or paused anytime.

What's your cancellation or rescheduling policy?

We ask for at least 24 hours notice to cancel or reschedule so we can offer the time slot to another client. Inside 24 hours, it's too late to fill that spot, so a $50 cancellation fee applies and goes to the cleaner to cover their lost work.

What's the difference between Deep Cleaning and Move In/Out Cleaning?

Deep Cleaning is a thorough top-to-bottom clean of a lived-in home. Move In/Out Cleaning goes further, covering the inside of empty cabinets, closets, ovens, and refrigerators to get a home fully move-ready.

What areas do you serve?

We serve Chicagoland's northwest suburbs, including Arlington Heights, Schaumburg, Palatine, Buffalo Grove, Elk Grove Village, Mount Prospect, Hoffman Estates, and surrounding towns. See our full service area.

How do I book a cleaning?

Call us at (224) 400-9869, use our online booking tool, or fill out the contact form and we'll follow up to confirm a time.

What if a different cleaner shows up every time?

Your preferences, access instructions, and any notes about your home are saved to your account, so every cleaner who visits knows what to expect and nothing has to be re-explained.

What if something gets broken or goes missing?

We're fully bonded and insured. In the rare event something is damaged, tell us and we'll make it right.

I've been burned by cleaners before who didn't show up. How is Ivybrook different?

You'll get a confirmation before every visit, and if anything ever changes on our end, we give you enough notice to make other arrangements. No-shows aren't something we tolerate.

Is my home safe with people I don't know in it?

Every cleaner is background-checked and vetted before their first job.

What if I'm not happy with the clean?

You're covered by the Ivybrook Promise: if anything's missed, tell us within 24 hours and we'll come back to make it right.

Still Have Questions?

We're happy to help you find the right cleaning plan.
