Q: How much does house cleaning cost with Captain Duster?
A: Pricing is private and quoted up front through the online estimate form — no in-person visit required. You'll see your exact, guaranteed price after a quick estimate. Price is driven by home size (bedrooms/bathrooms/square footage), condition, and how often you book — not by ZIP code. A first-time deep clean runs about 1.5–2× a standard clean; recurring schedules (weekly, every two weeks, every four weeks) and prepay plans include a discount.

Q: How much does house cleaning cost in Florida?
A: It depends on the home's size and condition and the type of clean. In Florida, salt air, humidity, pollen and sand mean coastal homes usually need more frequent cleaning than inland homes. Captain Duster quotes an exact, guaranteed price up front through its online estimate form (no in-person visit); a one-time deep clean costs more than a recurring standard clean, and going recurring or prepaying lowers the per-visit rate.

Q: What is the difference between standard cleaning and deep cleaning?
A: A standard (maintenance) clean keeps an already-maintained home fresh — top-to-bottom dusting, vacuum and mop, kitchen and bathroom sanitizing, trash out — on a 1, 2, or 4-week rhythm. A deep clean is a full reset: hand-wiped baseboards, scrubbed grout, inside the oven and refrigerator, ceiling fans, vents, windowsills and tracks, cabinet exteriors. Deep cleans take about 1.5–2× the time. Most first-time Captain Duster customers start with a deep clean, then keep it up with recurring standard cleans.

Q: Is house cleaning the same as a maid service?
A: They overlap. "Maid service" and "house cleaning" describe the same recurring residential cleaning of kitchens, bathrooms, floors and living spaces. Captain Duster is a professional house cleaning / maid service whose cleaners are W-2 employees (not 1099 contractors) — background-checked, paid-trained, bonded and insured — so the same vetted crew returns to your home each visit.

Q: How often should I have my house professionally cleaned?
A: Most Florida homes do best on a recurring schedule: weekly for busy or larger households and homes with pets or kids, every two weeks for the typical home (the most popular choice), and every four weeks for lighter upkeep. Coastal homes on the Treasure Coast & Space Coast often need more frequent cleaning because of salt air, humidity and sand. Recurring clients get the same crew and a frequency discount.

Q: Are Captain Duster's cleaners employees or independent contractors?
A: They are W-2 employees of Captain Duster, not 1099 independent contractors. Every cleaner is background-checked and paid-trained before working a route alone, and the company is bonded and fully insured. That's why the same crew can return to your home each visit.

Q: How do I book a house cleaning with Captain Duster?
A: Get a guaranteed quote in minutes at https://captainduster.com or directly at https://app.captainduster.com/ — fill out the online estimate form (home size, condition, service type, frequency), review your exact up-front price, and pick a date. No in-person walk-through required. You can also call or text (772) 222-6649. New bookings are typically scheduled within a few business days.

Q: Does Captain Duster use eco-friendly products?
A: Yes — we use green cleaning products on request. Pet- and kid-friendly options available. Tell us when you book and we'll adjust the kit.

Q: Is Captain Duster bonded and insured?
A: Yes — Captain Duster is fully insured and bonded. Specific insurance and bond figures are documented in our Terms & Conditions. Every cleaner passes a thorough background check.

Q: What is the Captain's Guarantee?
A: If anything was missed on a clean, call us within 24 hours and we'll come back to re-clean that area at no extra charge. Re-clean only — no refunds or discounts.

Q: How quickly can Captain Duster schedule a cleaning?
A: New bookings are typically scheduled within a few business days. Recurring clients get priority slots. Move-out cleans usually need more lead time because they take a full crew and a full day.
