FAQ
Limerick cleaner pricing questions, answered
Common questions about cleaner pricing in Limerick, with answers framed for tradies pricing their own work.
€12-€20/hr for standard residential in Limerick (Raheen, Dooradoyle, Janesboro, City Centre). €18-€35/hr for premium (Castletroy, South Circular Road, Ennis Road, Corbally, Annacotty). State minimum 2-3 hours on the quote. Limerick rates run 25-30% below Dublin metro.
€2.6m public liability and employer's liability minimum. Castletroy and Corbally premium often require €6.5m+ coverage. Quote Garda-vetted staff (free via National Vetting Bureau but requires admin time) as overhead. Pharma commercial clients (Regeneron, Cook Medical) require Safe Pass, cleanroom protocol experience and ISO 14644 awareness for tendering.
Yes, massive June-September volume. University of Limerick (Castletroy V94), Mary Immaculate College and Limerick Institute of Technology drive end-of-tenancy demand. Quote per-property (€160-€450 for 4-6 bed student HMO) at landlord portfolio rates. ARLA-equivalent agents (Sherry FitzGerald, REA, Daft.ie landlords) drive repeat business.
€8-€18/sqm/year for nightly cleaning of standard office space. Patrick Street, O'Connell Street, Newtown Pery commercial drive demand. Annual contracts at 10-15% discount with quarterly invoicing. Major tenants (pharma HQs, Shannon Airport logistics tenants) drive premium commercial work.
Yes, the highest-value commercial vertical in Limerick. Raheen (Regeneron), Castletroy/Annacotty (Cook Medical, Stryker, Vistakon) drive specialist pharma cleaning demand. Quote at €25-€55/hr with Safe Pass, cleanroom protocol experience and ISO 14644 awareness visible. Pharma contracts often €15,000-€80,000/year.
Hourly rates are €20 to €44 in the US, £15-35 in the UK, A€24-60 in Australia, R80-250 in South Africa, and C€20-55 in Canada. Most experienced cleaners prefer fixed-price by home size because hourly invites time-padding disputes.
By the job for standard, deep, or end-of-tenancy cleans where the scope is known. By the hour only for ad-hoc tidying where the customer wants to direct work in real-time. Fixed-price protects both sides.
Most cleaners bring their own basic supplies (vacuum, mop, microfibre, eco-friendly products). Some hourly bookings use customer supplies. Always confirm on the quote so there is no on-arrival argument.
Two or three for regular weekly bookings. Pricing is fairly consistent in any one area. The bigger variables are insurance, vetting, and whether the same cleaner attends every visit (better) or a rotating team (cheaper but variable).
Yes. Public liability insurance covers breakages and damage; workers comp covers injury on your property. Hire only insured cleaners; the cost of an uninsured cleaner damaging a hardwood floor or a flat-screen TV wipes out years of savings.
