Question

Does anyone know the average hourly rate for a domestic cleaner in the UK?

Answer 1

About £7 or £8 per hour.  Will cost more if the cleaner provides their own cleaning products.

Answer 2

It depends on where you are in the UK. Area's such as london tend to be more expensive and so do those that require difficult travel (such as countryside).

The going rate can be anything from £4 - £15 an hour - this depends entirely on who you get to do the cleaning, whether they are professional, students, bring their own cleaning materials, put travel costs on top of wages etc.

Its also best to let them know what you wish to be done for the wages you pay them, as some cleaners may charge extra for certain tasks. Look in the local paper's, shop windows, the internet etc to gauge the average locally.

Hope this helps, sorry I couldn't be of more use. xx
