House Cleaning in Atherton
Owner-operated recurring house cleaning for Atherton's estates — large homes on one-acre lots behind tall hedges and gated drives, on quiet lanes in one of the most private residential towns in the country. Weekly, biweekly, or monthly service with the same small team every visit, entry coordinated with you or your household staff, and discretion treated as part of the standard — not a special request.
Pricing
Transparent pricing based on home size and frequency. Starting prices below — use the quote tool for your exact number.

| 2 bed / 1 bath | $225 | $225 |
| 2 bed / 2 bath | $265 | $240 |

Weekly saves up to 10%, biweekly up to 5%. A $225 Atherton service minimum applies, so the smallest homes may see a smaller weekly discount. Additional bedrooms +$35; additional full baths +$65 — Atherton estates typically price from the larger end of the table.

A Note on Surface Limitations
We're honest about what cleaning can and can't do:
Burnt-on grease on the stovetop or oven exterior may not fully remove in a single visit. We will flag it and note what additional time would address it.
Cleaning in Atherton
Atherton is almost entirely residential — no commercial downtown, one-acre lots, and homes set well back from quiet lanes behind mature oaks and tall hedges. It's one of the most exclusive residential towns in the country, and households here expect two things from anyone who works inside the gate: consistent quality and complete discretion. Recurring cleaning keeps a very large home maintained without re-explaining preferences on every visit.
Amiga Cleaning Services serves homes across Atherton, from the estates near the Menlo Park border to the properties closer to Redwood City. Because nearly every home sits behind a hedge line and a gated drive, we confirm the entry protocol at booking — gate code, call-box, or a staff member who lets the team in — along with where to park inside the property so the visit never starts with a call from the gate.
Many Atherton households route scheduling through a house manager or other staff, and we work that way comfortably: one point of contact, confirmed arrival windows, and the same small team each time so faces stay familiar. If you're new to us, many clients start with a deep clean to reset the home, then move to weekly or biweekly recurring service.
Atherton access note
Atherton's lanes are quiet, unlit, and largely without sidewalks — street parking isn't the norm here, so we park inside the property. Share the gate code, call-box instructions, or your staff's entry protocol at booking, plus where the team should park once inside the hedge line. Entry details are treated as confidential and updated whenever you tell us access has changed.
Why Amiga in Atherton
An Atherton estate is a lot of home to keep consistent — guest wings, multiple living areas, and bathrooms that outnumber most houses' bedrooms. We run the same written checklist every visit and adapt it to your home instead of improvising, so the result is predictable across the whole property, not just the rooms someone happened to focus on that day.
Pricing is upfront before we start. You see the scope, the time window, and the price in the quote flow, and we hold to it — no surprise upcharges after the work is done. When something falls outside the standard scope, we tell you before we touch it, not after.
Amiga is owner-operated, so the same small team learns your home, your preferences, and your household's rhythm over time. We treat privacy the way Atherton does: entry codes stay confidential, we don't photograph your home without consent, and nothing identifying about your household ever appears in our public notes. Discretion isn't an upgrade here — it's the baseline.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does house cleaning in Atherton cost?
Recurring house cleaning in Atherton starts around $225 for smaller homes — that's our Atherton service minimum. A 2-bed/2-bath starts around $265; a 3-bed/2-bath starts around $300. Larger estates are priced by room and bath count. Weekly service saves up to 10%, biweekly saves up to 5% (never below the Atherton minimum). Use our quote tool for your exact price.
What's included in a recurring house clean?
Kitchen (counters, sink, stovetop, appliance exteriors, floors), bathrooms (toilet, sink, shower/tub, mirror, floors), living areas (dust, vacuum, mop), and bedrooms (beds made if requested, dust, vacuum). Your preferences are saved so the team knows your home on repeat visits — which matters in Atherton, where a single home can span more rooms than most crews see in a day.
How discreet is the service? Our household values privacy.
Discretion is part of the job here, not a special request. We don't photograph your home without consent, we don't discuss clients or households, and our public Service Notes never include names, addresses, or identifying details. The same small team serves your home each visit, arrival is coordinated the way you specify — through you, your household manager, or your staff — and we treat gate codes and entry instructions as confidential.
Can you coordinate with our household staff or estate manager?
Yes, and in Atherton we often do. Tell us at booking who manages the household calendar — you, a house manager, or other staff — and we'll route scheduling, arrival confirmation, and any scope questions through that person. If access runs through a staffed gate or a call-box, we follow the entry protocol you set.
What areas of Atherton do you serve?
We cover the whole town — the hedged one-acre estates across Atherton's quiet residential lanes, from the neighborhoods near the Menlo Park border to those closer to Redwood City. Atherton has no commercial district, so every visit is a residential one. If you're right on a border, send your address and we'll confirm coverage.
