It completely depends on how large your place is. I have a friend who pays $85 a week for housecleaning for a moderate middle class home. I have another who pays $260 a week for a 6000 sq ft. home.
Figure 1-2 hours for a typical home (remember, they're only doing surface cleaning, dusting/sweeping/floor washing - laundry, polishing, etc. would be extra)
And then for the larger home, I vaguely recall her saying that it takes the maid about 3-4 hours.
Back during my single days while living in Clifton, in a 2 bedroom apt about 800 sq ft I paid $100 a week and that included laundry and sometimes even cooking on that day. Find yourself a recently arrived LEGAL immigrant. They're always looking for work to make extra $$.
I thought the going rate a few years back was $20/hour. We had three different cleaning ladies (all legal) over a 3 year period and they were all about the same.
I pay $90 for 2 people, 3br, 2.5 Bth house. They come by-weekly and it takes them about 2 hours to clean the house.
