About Gainesville Maid

Gainesville's Local House Cleaning Company

The Florida Maid started in 2018 with a simple idea: Florida homes deserve a cleaning company built around Florida conditions, not a national franchise applying the same playbook everywhere. That idea grew into a company that has now cleaned over 25,000 homes across the state.

Gainesville Maid (A Florida Maid Services Company) exists because this city's mix of historic neighborhoods, family suburbs, and a massive student rental market make it its own world. So rather than force Gainesville into a one-size-fits-all mold, we built a dedicated local brand around it — same trusted company, same insurance, same background-checked cleaners, but a focus tuned specifically to this city.

Every cleaner who works under the Gainesville Maid (A Florida Maid Services Company) name goes through the same vetting process as every other Florida Maid technician: background checks, in-person training, and ongoing quality reviews.

We're proud of the 5.0-star Google rating that follows The Florida Maid name across every city we serve, and we intend to earn that same trust in Gainesville, one cleaning at a time.

Beach Home Cleaning

Why Gainesville Homes Need a Different Kind of Clean

Beach living comes with its own set of cleaning challenges in Gainesville. Here's how Gainesville Maid handles them.

Student Turnover Season

May move-outs and August move-ins create a crunch for landlords and parents who need a rental cleaned fast between tenants. We scale up crews for turnover season so timelines don't slip.

Red Clay & Pollen

North Central Florida's red clay soil and heavy spring pollen track into entryways and settle on windowsills. We use products and techniques suited to lifting fine particulate without smearing it.

Historic Home Care

Duckpond and other historic-district homes often have original hardwood floors, plaster walls, and older fixtures that need gentler products than a newer build. We adjust our approach accordingly.

Humidity & Mildew

North Florida humidity still creates mildew risk in bathrooms and closets, even without coastal salt air. We pay close attention to these zones on every visit.

Game Day Scheduling

Home football weekends bring a surge of house guests and tailgate cleanup. We offer flexible pre- and post-game scheduling for hosts.

Large Lot & Rural-Adjacent Homes

Many Gainesville homes sit on larger wooded lots that track in more leaves, sand, and debris than a typical suburban lot. We adjust cleaning time estimates for these properties.

Cleaning Prices

Gainesville House Cleaning Prices & Rates

Gainesville Maid (A Florida Maid Services Company) keeps pricing simple and hourly, not flat-rate. Every visit falls into one of three tiers: $49/hour when you supply your own products, $59/hour when we bring everything, or $89/hour for same-day service.

What determines how many hours your home needs? Mainly size and condition. A tidy near-campus rental might only need the 2-hour minimum, while a Haile Plantation family home getting its first deep clean could run 5 hours or more.

Recurring service is where Gainesville Maid (A Florida Maid Services Company) saves you the most. Book weekly and save 20%; book bi-weekly or monthly and save 10%.

One thing we never do: charge a mandatory travel fee. Your hourly rate is the same across all of Gainesville.

Choosing a Cleaning Frequency

Weekly

The most popular plan among Gainesville families with kids or pets. Weekly service keeps clutter and dust from getting ahead of you, earning 20% off.

Bi-Weekly

A strong middle ground for smaller households or grad students. Bi-weekly visits still catch most buildup, and you save 10%.

Monthly

Best suited to light-use homes or landlords managing a rental between tenants. Monthly service goes deeper than a quick touch-up, and also carries the 10% discount.

One-Time

Perfect for a single deep clean, move-in/move-out job, or pre-event reset. No commitment, no recurring charge.

Service Areas

Gainesville Neighborhoods We Serve

Gainesville Maid covers every neighborhood across Gainesville — here's a closer look at where we clean most.

Haile Plantation

This large planned community on the southwest side is one of Gainesville's most established family neighborhoods, and a favorite for our weekly and bi-weekly recurring clients.

The Duckpond

Gainesville's historic district is full of century-old homes with original details. We clean here with extra care for original wood floors and vintage fixtures.

Turkey Creek

This golf-course community in southwest Gainesville is home to many of our longest-running recurring clients, who value a consistent cleaner they can trust.

Kanapaha

Newer construction near Kanapaha Botanical Gardens means larger square footage and more surfaces to cover — we regularly staff two-person teams for these homes.

This established neighborhood in northwest Gainesville trusts Gainesville Maid (A Florida Maid Services Company) for everything from routine upkeep to deep cleans before family visits.

Near UF / Midtown

Student rentals and faculty housing close to campus are where our turnover cleaning gets the most use, especially around semester transitions.

Local vs. National

Gainesville Maid vs. National Cleaning Franchises in Gainesville

National cleaning franchises operate the same playbook everywhere — the same checklist in Gainesville as in Minneapolis. Gainesville Maid (A Florida Maid Services Company) does not. We built our service around this city's academic calendar, its mix of historic and new construction, and its high volume of rental turnovers.

Franchise pricing also tends to hide the real cost behind a 'custom quote.' Gainesville Maid (A Florida Maid Services Company) publishes flat hourly pricing up front — $49, $59, or $89 per hour depending on the tier.

And unlike a franchise where you might get a different cleaner from a rotating pool every time, we prioritize sending the same cleaner back to your Gainesville home on recurring visits.
