An unemployed friend of mind agreed to me hiring him to do some housecleaning for me as I am recovering fron an injury. I have a one bedrm condo 1073 sq feet.
He vacuumed 3 carpeted areas (LR/DR?BedRM)& washed the hardwood floor around the areas the carpet did not cove. He vacummed the carpet in my small walk-in closet and the bathroom. He washed the hardwood floor in my office area, washed the kitchen floor, did thorough dusting in all the rooms (in the living rm I have glass tables & wall unit) , cleaned the bathroom. I did the laundry but he carried the loads for me.
I asked him what I owed him and he said he had no clue whatever I wanted to give him. I paid him $65 and gave him $10 towards his gas because he lives 45 min away and drives a jeep suv.
Was that fair? I have no idea what house cleaning costs.
