A regular cleaner in Cardiff typically visits once a week or once a fortnight, covering kitchens, bathrooms, dusting, vacuuming and mopping, with ironing or bed changes added if needed.
Cardiff homes include Victorian and Edwardian terraces in Roath, Canton and Pontcanna, larger houses in Llandaff, Cyncoed and Whitchurch, family homes across the northern suburbs and towards Penarth, and flats in Cardiff Bay and the centre.

Terraces, bay windows and soft water
Cardiff's terraced streets have a lot of bay-fronted houses with original features – high skirting boards, picture rails, fireplaces – plus long back extensions with kitchens and bathrooms. They're lovely homes but have plenty of ledges for dust. Regular cleaners often rotate detailed dusting so the main tasks are always covered.
The water in Cardiff is soft, so limescale is rarely a big job. Condensation and damp in rear bathrooms and kitchens are more common in older terraces, and regular cleaning of extractor fans, sills and sealant helps.
Flats in Cardiff Bay often need less time but have lots of glass and hard floors. Many cleaners there work while residents are out, using a concierge or keysafe for access.
Hours and frequency
Two hours a week suits most one- or two-bedroom flats and small terraces; three hours suits most three-bedroom houses. Fortnightly cleans usually need a little more time per visit. Our guide on how many hours a cleaner needs helps you estimate.
Getting started
Walk round with your new cleaner on the first visit and agree priorities, how you'll pay, and what happens during holidays. Our guide to preparing for a cleaner explains how to get the most from each visit, including clearing surfaces so cleaning time isn't spent tidying.
If you're renting, a regular cleaner also makes the eventual move-out much easier – see end of tenancy cleaning in Cardiff.

Wales has high rainfall, particularly in the valleys and uplands, so damp and mould around windows and in bathrooms are frequent cleaning jobs. Terraced streets, student housing in Cardiff and Swansea and holiday lets along the coast all shape local demand, from end of tenancy cleans to changeover cleaning.
