Already paying someone to clean?

If you're reading this page, something about your current situation isn't quite right. People who are completely happy don't look for alternatives. Here's what we hear most:

Quality dropped off. They were great for the first few months. Now they rush through it and corners get skipped. You're paying the same price for less work and you don't know how to bring it up without making things awkward.

No insurance. No background check. You found them through a friend or on a Facebook group. If something breaks or goes missing you have zero protection.

Communication is exhausting. They don't respond to texts. Show up at the wrong time. Cancel last minute. You spend more energy managing them than it would take to do it yourself.

You don't have to fire anyone. Just describe your home on KLEENUP. See what comes back. Then decide.

Same street. Same square footage. Two different weekends.

She texts her cleaner from her personal phone. Coordinates schedules over WhatsApp. Negotiates pricing in person. Hopes they show up on Tuesday. When they cancel she scrambles. When the quality slips she doesn't say anything because she doesn't want to lose them.

You described your home on KLEENUP in two minutes from the car. Three vetted pros bid within the hour. You picked Sandra. 5.0 stars. 312 completed jobs. Fully insured. Never gave out your phone number. Set it to recurring. Now it just happens.

She's managing a cleaner. You forgot you even had one.

From the team

Why we built this

Where the money actually goes

Cleaners keep 90%

KLEENUP is free to use. Free to describe your home. Free to see bids. No subscriptions and no contracts. The cleaner pays KLEENUP a 10% commission only on completed jobs. A 3.5% processing fee covers payment handling. That's every fee you will ever see.

Set it and forget it

Weekly. Every two weeks. Monthly. Same cleaner. Same day. Same time. Your home stays spotless without a single phone call or text. You stop thinking about cleaning entirely.

10% back via Zelle on your first clean

Complete your first job and we send 10% back to you via Zelle. Bethesda residents. One per household. No hoops. No codes. We just send it.

Questions people ask before they try it

Frequently asked

Is it really free for me?
Yes. Free to describe your home. Free to browse bids. Free to read cleaner profiles. You only pay when you choose a cleaner and they physically show up. A 3.5% processing fee covers payment handling. No subscriptions. No monthly fees.
How is this different from hiring through an agency?
An agency charges the cleaner and then charges you on top. Sometimes a 50% markup or more. KLEENUP charges the cleaner 10% on completed jobs only. You deal directly with the person cleaning your home. Nobody inflating your price in the middle.
Can I just get specific rooms cleaned?
Yes. Just the kitchen. Just the bathrooms. Just the oven. You describe exactly what you need and cleaners bid on exactly that. Nothing more.
How does the 10% cash back work?
After your first completed job, let us know. We send 10% of the job cost back to you via Zelle. One per household. Bethesda residents.
Why do you need my phone number?
We text you a link. That link opens a private page where you see bids from vetted cleaners as they come in. You also see our own notes on each cleaner. If you want to hire someone you add a payment method and confirm. If not you cancel the job or do nothing and we close it for you. Your number is verified via text code and never shared with anyone.
How are the cleaners vetted?
National background check. Identity verification. Insurance verification. And an in-person interview with our team at our office. All four before they accept a single job on the platform.
What if the clean isn't good?
You have a full 24 hours after the job to open a dispute. We review every single case.
I already have a cleaner. Why would I bother?
Keep your cleaner for every job they handle well. Use KLEENUP when they can't make it or when you need someone today. You can also use it to check whether your current pricing is fair. No commitment either way.
Can I cancel if I change my mind?
Yes. Cancel or reschedule free with 24 hours notice. No penalties. No awkward conversations.
Is KLEENUP a cleaning company?
No. KLEENUP is a technology marketplace. Think of it as infrastructure that connects you directly with independent vetted cleaning professionals who compete for your business. We don't employ cleaners.
