Pick a time, we match you with a police-checked local cleaner, and you come home to a place that finally feels calm.
See your exact price upfront and lock in a time — no phone calls, no callbacks, so you keep your evening free.
We assign a background-checked professional from the 29 who cover Thornbury — the nearest is about 11 minutes away, so arrival is reliable, not a guessing game.
Spend your Saturday at the farmers' market or along the Merri Creek Trail instead of scrubbing. Walk back into a home that's done properly.

Karan was assigned to clean my apartment. He was on time and did a fantastic job. I would definitely recommend Simply Maid and Karan for any cleaning service.
Alejandro is lovely. He doesn't just clean, but tidy up all my stray piles of stuff as well. And is very tolerant with my dog, who seems to hold a grudge against his feather duster.
Alejandro did an outstanding job. Would highly recommend him if you are in the Melbourne area.
The team did a great job for a standard inspection clean - punctual, friendly, thorough and value for money. Will book again soon.
Sokki and Jon did a fantastic job cleaning my place today, would use them again
They cleaned my house really well! Very polite, efficient.
Detailed. Easy to use. very professional
A very thorough clean. Very friendly and accommodating. Good value.
Fantastic service. I had a deep clean for a bit of a spring refresh and it was above and beyond, more thorough than I expected and markedly better than previous cleans I’ve booked from other Melbourne companies. The team was super friendly and professional. My apartment looks great—would definitely recommend and I’ll book them again.
Raj and his partner did an amazing job! Spotless clean apartment with a large balcony. Fully arrived on time (10 minutes early!). Easy and trustworthy. Great communication. Highly recommend!
