Almaden Valley runs up against the foothills at the southwest corner of the county, where lots are generous, pools are ordinary rather than remarkable, and 2,600 square feet is nobody’s idea of a big house.

MaidSimple provides house cleaning and maid service in Almaden Valley, California. Houses on this side of the valley are large — four and five bedrooms, a formal dining room, a pool deck off the family room. Every cleaner is on payroll as a W-2 employee, background-checked. Quotes for a four-bedroom start around about $299.85 per clean. Addresses across 95120 and the 95118 fringe near Camden Avenue are served.
Square footage is the variable that matters most down here. The tracts built between 1972 and 1994 around Graystone and Shadowbrook run 2,200 to 3,400 square feet, usually two floors, usually with a three-car garage and a wall of sliders onto the back. A standard visit takes longer than the same bedroom count would take in an older part of the city, and the quote says so before anyone books.
Pools change the work more than owners expect. Wet feet cross the tile, chlorine dust settles on the glass, and the pool side of the house needs doing far more often than the street side. Homes backing onto Almaden Quicksilver County Park pick up trail dust through the dry months on top of that. Crews plan around hard floors and glass here, not carpet.
Expect two stories, a tile or slate entry, wood or engineered plank across the main floor and carpet upstairs in the bedrooms. Kitchens are big, with island counters in granite or marble that will spot permanently if the wrong product touches them. Entry and family-room ceilings run high, so cobwebs gather where nobody sees them from standing height. Association membership is uncommon outside a few newer courts, and gated streets are rare.

You pay for the time it takes: the hours we plan at $99.95 an hour for every recurring clean, or $117.59 an hour just once. Supplies and equipment included. Anything extra you tick — inside the oven, the fridge, baseboards in full — adds its time at the same rate, and a deeper clean or a move-out is simply more hours. Slide the hours before you book if you know your home better than we do.
The operational stuff nobody advertises, which is exactly what matters on the day.
Sliders facing the water fog with chlorine and sunscreen film, and the bottom track fills with grit carried off wet feet. Those doors get their own pass every visit instead of being folded into the general window work, because they are the ones you look through.
Granite and marble show up in most kitchens and primary baths up here. Anything acidic dulls the polish for good, so the crew carries a stone-safe cleaner and uses it on counters, surrounds and shower thresholds alike.
Streets along the western edge sit close to open grassland and old mining trails. From June into October a fine tan dust lands on sills, blind slats and entry tile far faster than it does out on the valley floor, and the schedule allows for it.

How it works →Baseboards, inside appliances, grout and vents — the same clean with more hours, at the same rate.
How it works →Empty-home cleaning for deposits and handovers — more hours, the same rate.
How it works →Weekly, every 2 weeks or every 4 weeks, at the advertised rate every clean.
How it works →Most cleaning companies send whoever is available that day. Our cleaners are our own background-checked, W-2 employees — which costs us more in payroll tax and workers’ comp, and is exactly why the standard holds: we employ them and dispatch them ourselves.
Every maid is on our payroll and background-checked before she sets foot in your home. If anything’s not right, tell us and we come back and put it right — you don’t pay twice.
The general FAQ covers access, supplies, rescheduling and paying.
No, the time it takes is the price. A 3,000 square foot home with four bedrooms and three baths is quoted from those numbers, not from a tape measure. If yours has an unusual run of hard flooring or a second family room, put it in the notes and the allowance is made before the first visit rather than after it.
Yes, provided it is booked. A detached unit counts as extra rooms because it carries its own kitchen and bathroom, so add it when you enter your bedroom and bathroom totals. The crew then arrives with time set aside for it rather than trying to fit it into somebody else’s afternoon.
Those get extra work on the exterior-facing surfaces. Trail dust comes through screens and lies thick on horizontal blinds and window ledges, so the crew clears those before touching the floors, and the entry tile gets a second pass on the way out. No surcharge — it is how the visit is sequenced.
