How many times have you procrastinated cleaning the house? There’s the floor to vacuum, kitchen to disinfect and a new load of laundry to start. Chores pile up once you begin to make a mental note, and suddenly next weekend sounds like a better time. With hosting guests, though, you have no choice but to get to the bottom of it.

Amazon Home Services has an entire section dedicated to home cleaning and maid services. From mopping and deep cleaning, with a click, professionals can be hired to do a variety of tasks, and the rates depend on the hours as well as the number of cleaners you will need. Wiping down AC filters and removing stains from sofas require care and experience, so Amazon has you covered on that front as well.

We give you a rundown on all the services you can avail. The availability of service providers depends on the city you live in:

1. House cleaning service

This is a basic service to get your home looking spick and span. Prices depend on whether you need one or two cleaners, the duration from two to eight hours and if the cleaners should come with supplies.

In Dubai, a two-hour hire with your own cleaning supplies will cost you Dh66; and without, it comes to Dh78.

Services: Living space dusted and mopped, washing dishes and kitchen cleaning, making the beds and cleaning the bathroom and windows.

Availability: Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman only.

2. Sofa cleaning service

For instance, a two-seater leather sofa will cost you Dh99 if you live in Dubai.

Barbeque grills are rust prone if they are not cleaned on the regular. A wipe-down with basic chemical sprays is not enough, especially before a big family cookout. Grill cleaning pros will disassemble your machine, hand scrape the build-up and reassemble it for your safety. This can take two to five hours.

You have to pay Dh199 to get a small grill cleaned in Dubai.

Availability: Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah only.

8. AC cleaning

Anywhere from soft to deep cleaning of your air conditioning unit can be availed with this service. Your customisation options also include maintenance and repair, though any additional spare parts needed will be charged separately. The number of AC units in your home, hence the price, will be calculated according to the number of controllers.

Getting your single AC unit soft cleaned in Dubai will cost you Dh129.

Services: Deep cleaning (ideal for every six to 12 months), soft cleaning (recommended every three months), duct cleaning (recommended every three to five years) and maintenance/repair (twice a year).

Availability: Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman only.

9. Home disinfection service

Hire experts to disinfect your living space using either chemical or non-chemical means. Lasting anywhere from 30 minutes to over an hour, the service will include spraying all touch points with the disinfectant. The disinfection service providers are approved by the Dubai Municipality, so the product used is completely children- and pet-friendly.

Non-chemical disinfection involves UV-C light that does not require ventilation, and is slightly more expensive than chemical disinfection.

Getting a one bedroom flat chemically disinfected will cost you Dh249 in Dubai; UV-C will cost you Dh260.

Availability: Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah only.

10. Deep cleaning and disinfection services

Thorough cleaning and disinfection of the house is included in this service package, though the latter is optional. Pros will bring along a heavy-duty vacuum, steam machine, mops, detergents for dishes, floor, glass, toilets and a fogger machine if disinfection is added.

Only deep cleaning of a one-bedroom flat will cost you Dh399 in Dubai and can last for up to eight hours.

Availability: Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah only.

11. House cleaning and sanitisation

This is a basic home cleaning service with disinfection, where you get to choose the duration and provide your own cleaning materials.

Two hours of house cleaning with your own supplies plus sanitisation will cost you Dh315 in Dubai.

Availability: Dubai only.
