Pricing
Straightforward weekday pricing. Individual quotes where the work requires individual assessment.
Glaive keeps standard weekday pricing simple while allowing specialist, variable and premium-period work to be assessed according to what the job actually requires.
Standard weekday service
This is Glaive's standard weekday rate for applicable cleaning and household services. Services requiring individual assessment are quoted separately.
What does the standard rate include?
For ordinary home cleaning, Glaive arrives prepared for the agreed work without adding separate routine equipment or standard cleaning-product charges.
Cleaning equipment
Standard cleaning equipment required for ordinary household cleaning is supplied by Glaive.
Standard cleaning products
Standard cleaning products for ordinary household work are supplied unless another arrangement is agreed.
Agreed service time
The booking time is used according to the agreed scope and priorities for the service.
Some services are individually quoted
A fixed public hourly rate does not make sense where properties, access requirements, workload and service conditions can vary substantially. These services are assessed before pricing is confirmed.
End-of-lease cleaning
Quoted according to property size, condition and the agreed cleaning scope.
Deceased estates
Clearing, removal requirements and property cleaning are assessed according to the individual estate.
Post-construction & handover
Quoted according to project size, site condition, required finish and access arrangements.
After-party & event cleaning
Arranged according to the event, property or venue, expected workload and required cleaning time.
Window cleaning
Assessed according to window quantity, size, condition, accessibility and requested inclusions.
Other variable work
Unusual, substantial or individually scoped work may require assessment before a price is confirmed.
Evenings, weekends & public holidays
Bookings outside Glaive's standard weekday period are priced separately.
The applicable price will be provided before you confirm the booking.
This includes applicable late-evening, weekend, public-holiday and other premium-period bookings.
Glaive does not publish the full premium-period rate schedule on this page because the appropriate arrangement can also depend on the service being requested.
Why a 4-hour minimum?
Glaive's standard weekday service has a four-hour minimum booking.
The minimum allows enough time to complete meaningful work rather than rushing through a property during a very short appointment.
It also allows clients to combine suitable household tasks within the same booking where this has been agreed beforehand.
Using your booked time
Before work begins, the expected tasks and priorities are discussed so the available time can be used effectively.
- Priority areas can be identified in advance
- Suitable household tasks may be combined
- Additional requests can be discussed before work begins
- Regular clients can adjust priorities as household needs change
- Work outside the agreed scope is not automatically added to the booking
If the job is different from what was described
Quotes and booking arrangements rely on the information provided before the service.
If the property condition, amount of work, access requirements or requested service is materially different when Glaive arrives, additional work will not simply be undertaken without discussion.
Glaive may:
- Complete the agreed priority work within the booked time
- Discuss additional time where available
- Provide a revised or additional quote
- Arrange another visit for remaining work
- Decline work that falls outside Glaive's service or safety boundaries
This helps avoid unexpected charges while ensuring that additional work is properly agreed before it is undertaken.
GST
Glaive Cleaning Services is GST registered.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, advertised Glaive rates are shown excluding GST. GST is added where applicable and will be identified on the relevant quotation, invoice or service documentation.
The standard weekday rate shown on this page is therefore $60 per hour + GST.
How Glaive quotes work
Tell us what you need
Provide information about the property, service required and the work you would like completed.
Provide useful details
Depending on the service, photographs, measurements or additional information may be requested to help assess the work.
Receive the arrangement
Glaive confirms the proposed service, applicable pricing or quotation and any important conditions before the booking is accepted.
You decide
A quote request does not commit you to proceed. The booking is confirmed only after the service arrangement has been accepted.
Consistent pricing rather than headline discounts.
Glaive does not advertise automatic weekly or twice-weekly percentage discounts.
The aim is to maintain a sustainable service price that supports appropriate equipment, business costs, travel, insurance, administration and the time required to provide the agreed service properly.
Regular clients still benefit from familiarity with their property, established service priorities and easier ongoing scheduling without requiring an artificially discounted headline rate.
Need a price for your job?
Tell us which service you need, where the property is located and what work is required. Glaive can then confirm whether the standard weekday rate applies or provide an individual quotation for the work.
