Occupied-home spring cleaning before CNY, a baby, or after HIP
Spring cleaning in Singapore is S$280 to S$450 for a 3-room or 4-room HDB with a two to three person crew for about four hours, S$460 to S$680 for a 5-room, executive or 3 to 4 bed condo, and S$680 to S$980 for a landed house or penthouse with four or five cleaners. A post-HIP dust recovery clean is S$320 to S$550. The flat can stay occupied. Ladders, HEPA vacuums and steamers come with the crew.

A helper hour rate is the wrong tool for the ceiling
The dust that matters is on the fan, the window track and the top of the cabinet. A single cleaner without an industrial vacuum spends the four hours on the floor you already mop.
| What you see | Likely cause | What to do first / typical cost |
|---|---|---|
| CNY is three weeks away and the tracks are black | A year of condensation dust | 3-room or 4-room blitz: S$280 to S$450 |
| A newborn is due and the nursery has not been washed | High surfaces and the bathroom scale | Landed or penthouse crew: S$680 to S$980. A smaller flat uses the HDB band |
| HIP just finished and the flat is gritty | Cement and paint dust from the town-council works | Post-HIP recovery: S$320 to S$550 |
| You are moving out, not just cleaning | The unit has to pass an agent, not a relative | Use the end-of-tenancy page, not this one |
