What this involves
What does a professional house cleaning actually cost, and what do you get for it? Most cleaners won't answer that honestly. At Magic Castle Cleaning, a standard clean runs 2 to 4 hours depending on your home's size and condition, and our team shows up with all the supplies they need. We cover dusting, vacuuming, mopping, bathroom sanitization, and kitchen surfaces — every room, not just the obvious ones. We're fully insured to $2,000,000 in general liability, which most independent cleaners simply aren't. Call (801) 618-2548 for a free quote — we're available Monday through Friday until 8 PM, and weekends too.
Home cleaning costs vary based on square footage, how long it's been since the last professional clean, and which service type fits your situation. A one-time deep clean for a larger or neglected home will cost more than a recurring cleaning visit on a home we've already been maintaining. What drives the price up: more rooms, more bathrooms, heavy buildup in kitchens and showers, or a move-in/move-out situation where every surface has to meet landlord standards. We don't publish flat rates because a number that works for a 900 sq ft apartment will leave a 2,500 sq ft house half-done. Every job is different — contact Magic Castle Cleaning for an accurate estimate.
What a Professional House Clean Actually Includes
No guessing, no cutting corners — here's what we do in your home.
- 01
Kitchens
Counters wiped down, exterior cabinet faces cleaned, stovetop scrubbed, sink and fixtures polished, floor mopped. We don't skip the backsplash or the space behind the dish rack.
- 02
Bathrooms
Toilets sanitized inside and out, sinks and counters cleaned, mirrors wiped streak-free, shower and tub scrubbed, floors mopped. Every bathroom in the home, not just the main one.
- 03
Bedrooms and Living Areas
Dusting on surfaces, ceiling fans, and baseboards. Vacuuming carpets or sweeping and mopping hard floors. Making beds if linens are left out.
- 04
Supplies and Equipment
Our cleaners arrive with everything they need. You don't have to stock a cleaning closet for us. If you prefer we use your own products — say, for pet-safe or fragrance-free reasons — we're happy to accommodate that.

Why Magic Castle Cleaning
What Sets This Service Apart From the Alternatives
There's a real difference between hiring an insured local business and taking a chance on whoever shows up through an app.
Insured to $2,000,000
We carry a real general liability policy. Most independent cleaners carry no policy at all. Ours covers your home if something goes wrong — and that's not a small thing.
Background-Checked Cleaners
Every cleaner who enters your home has been vetted. We don't subcontract to whoever's available — the people we send are people we know and stand behind.
3 Years Running as a Nextdoor Neighborhood Fave
2023, 2024, and 2025 — three straight years recognized by neighbors across Salt Lake County. That's word-of-mouth, not a paid badge.
Flexible Scheduling
One-time, weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly — we work around your calendar. Available Monday through Friday until 8 PM, and on weekends. Book the frequency that fits your life.
Locally Owned, Salt Lake County Only
We're not a franchise with a call center. Steven Cassell runs this business, and we focus entirely on Salt Lake County. Specificity means we actually know the area we serve.
Satisfaction Re-Clean
Not happy with an area we cleaned? Just point it out in the final walkthrough so the cleaners can make sure you're 100% happy before they leave, at no additional cost. No argument, no runaround.

Not every home needs the same thing. A recurring cleaning visit on a well-maintained home takes less time and costs less than a first-time deep clean on a place that hasn't been professionally cleaned in a year. Here's how to think about it.
If your home is already well-maintained and you want ongoing upkeep, a standard recurring clean on a weekly or bi-weekly schedule is the right call. We build a rhythm, you stop thinking about it.
If it's been a while, or you've just moved in, start with a deep clean first. It's more thorough — we get into baseboards, inside appliances, light fixtures, and areas a maintenance clean wouldn't touch. Think of it as resetting to a clean baseline.
Moving out? That's a different job entirely and we treat it that way. Landlords and property managers have specific expectations, and our move-out cleaning is scoped to meet them. We also handle office and commercial spaces throughout Salt Lake County if you need cleaning at a workplace, not just a home.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a professional cleaner charge to clean a house?
House cleaning costs depend on the square footage, the number of bathrooms, how frequently you're scheduling, and the condition of the home. A first-time clean on a home with significant buildup takes longer than a recurring maintenance visit. We don't publish flat rates because a number that fits a small apartment will leave a large house underserviced. Call (801) 618-2548 and we'll give you a straight quote based on your actual home.
What does a professional clean include?
A standard professional clean covers kitchens (counters, stovetop, sink, cabinet exteriors, floors), bathrooms (toilet, tub/shower, sink, mirror, floor), all bedrooms and living areas (dusting, vacuuming or mopping) throughout the home. Our cleaners bring all supplies and equipment. If your home has specific needs or areas you want prioritized, tell us before the visit and we'll adjust accordingly.
What is typically included in a deep clean for a house?
A deep clean goes further than a standard maintenance visit. In addition to the usual surfaces, we clean inside appliances, scrub baseboards, wipe down light fixtures and switch plates, clean inside the oven, detail the inside of the refrigerator, and address any buildup that a regular clean would skip. It's the right starting point for a home that hasn't been professionally cleaned recently, or before a major event or a move.
What is the 5-5-5 rule for cleaning?
The 5-5-5 rule is a home maintenance habit: spend 5 minutes cleaning each of 5 areas, 5 days a week. It works for keeping a well-maintained home between professional visits but it isn't a substitute for deep cleaning high-traffic areas like kitchens and bathrooms. Most homeowners who follow it still benefit from a bi-weekly or monthly professional clean to handle the scrubbing and sanitizing that a 5-minute wipe-down doesn't address.
Do I need to be home during the cleaning?
Not for the whole visit. We do ask that you're available at the start so we can walk through what's being cleaned, and for a final walkthrough afterward if it's a first-time or one-time clean (standard, deep, move-out or post-construction) so we can confirm everything meets your expectations before we leave. For recurring service, we only ask that you're home for the first visit; after that, many clients give us a key or a door code and go about their day. We're fully insured to $2,000,000, and every cleaner on our team has passed a background check, so you're not handing access to a stranger with no accountability.
How long does a standard house cleaning take?
Most standard cleaning visits take between 2 and 4 hours depending on the home's size, the number of rooms and bathrooms, and how much buildup there is. A first-time clean almost always takes longer than a recurring visit on the same home, because we're starting from scratch rather than maintaining a baseline. We'll give you a realistic time estimate when you call.
Can I customize what gets cleaned each visit?
Yes. If there are rooms you'd rather we skip, areas you want extra attention on, or products you'd prefer we use (especially for pet households or scent sensitivities), tell us when you book and we'll note it. We'd rather know your preferences upfront than have you discover something was missed after we've left.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be home during the cleaning visit?
Not for the whole visit. We ask that you're available at the start so we can walk through what's being cleaned, and for a final walkthrough afterward on first-time and one-time visits (standard, deep, move-out and post-construction cleans) so we can confirm everything meets your expectations before we leave. For recurring service, we only ask that you're home for the first visit; after that, many clients give us a key or door code and go about their day. We're insured to $2,000,000 in general liability, and every cleaner has passed a background check.
How long does a typical house cleaning take?
Most standard visits run 2 to 4 hours depending on home size, bathroom count, and condition. A first-time clean on a home with significant buildup takes longer than a recurring visit where we're maintaining a clean baseline. We'll give you a realistic time estimate when you call — not a number designed to look appealing before we get in the door.
Can I request the same cleaner every visit?
We do our best to send the same cleaner for recurring clients because consistency matters — both for your comfort and for the quality of the clean. A cleaner who knows your home already knows where the pet hair collects, which surfaces need extra time, and what you care about most. We can't always guarantee it, but it's the goal.
