Cleaning maids are available today in Jeddah with Al-Kauther Home Services: we send one or more maids the same day, subject to availability, and on an instant request a maid can arrive within 30 minutes of confirmation. She cleans the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and glass from a clear checklist. A 4-hour visit starts from SAR 180, and you pay only when the maid arrives. To book, WhatsApp us on 0561940026.
This page is about the work itself: what the maid cleans in each room and in what order, how many hours your home really needs, and how we handle what sets Jeddah homes apart, namely the humidity that leaves its mark on bathrooms and AC vents, and the salt that sea air carries onto windows and balconies. If you already know what you want cleaned today, this list helps you ask for all of it.

- Tools: she brings them; cleaning materials as agreed
- Booking and payment: WhatsApp with no app, and you pay when she arrives
What the maid cleans on today’s visit
An hourly cleaning visit is not the quick wipe-down some people expect. A trained maid walks in with a plan. She starts with the wet areas, where the cleaner needs time to work, moves on to the bedrooms while the kitchen and bathrooms dry, and finishes with the floors so nobody walks wet shoes across a clean surface. These are the areas she usually covers:
The room-by-room cleaning checklist
This is the list we give the maid when a customer just says “I want the house clean” with no details. Remove items, add to it or reorder it to match what matters to you today.
Kitchen
Kitchens in Jeddah are in use all day, and the humidity makes cooking vapour cling to walls and cupboards faster than it does in dry cities. So the maid usually starts by spraying degreaser on the hob and extractor hood and leaving it to work while she washes up.
- Washing up, putting dishes away and drying the sink.
- Degreasing the hob, the outside of the oven, the hood and the wall behind them.
- Wiping marble counters, cupboard fronts and handles.
- Cleaning the outside of the fridge and microwave, and the inside if you ask.
- Emptying and washing the bin, then mopping the kitchen floor last.
Bathrooms
The bathroom is where Jeddah’s humidity shows most: black spots in tile grout and ceiling corners, white scale around taps and the shower head, mirrors that fog in no time. All of it needs the right cleaner and enough time, not just a wipe with water. Our advice is to allow 20 to 40 minutes per bathroom depending on its state.
- Cleaning the toilet inside and out, and the floor around its base.
- Scrubbing grout around the shower and in corners to lift dark marks.
- Removing scale from taps, shower head and basin.
- Polishing mirrors and the shower screen.
- Wiping cabinets and shelves, changing towels and drying the floor properly.

Bedrooms
Bedrooms are easier than kitchens and bathrooms, but they take time when laundry has piled up or every bed needs fresh linen. Humidity has another effect here: a stale, musty smell in wardrobes and curtains when a room stays shut with the AC running for days.
- Changing sheets and pillowcases and making the beds.
- Dusting bedside tables, the dressing table, lamps and wardrobe tops.
- Gathering dirty clothes and sorting what needs washing.
- Wiping the outside of AC vents and the window frames.
- Airing the room for ten minutes if the weather allows, then vacuuming and mopping.

Living room and majlis
This is where the family and guests gather, and where fine dust settles on sofas, rugs and under tables. The maid works from top to bottom: shelves, ornaments and frames first, then tables and sofas, then rugs and the floor.
- Wiping shelves, ornaments, frames and the TV with a microfibre cloth.
- Vacuuming sofas, cushions and the gaps beneath them.
- Vacuuming rugs on both sides where they can be turned, and straightening the seating.
- Wiping glass and wooden tables with the right cleaner for each surface.
- Mopping the floor, wall corners, doors and handles.
Windows, glass and the balcony
Glass usually comes last, because any dust thrown up while cleaning the rest of the home would settle on it. In Jeddah glass also needs a particular method, explained in the next section. The visit covers glass that can be reached safely from inside or from the balcony; high external facades are not a job for a house maid.
- Inside glass on windows, balcony doors and glass doors.
- The bottom tracks of aluminium sliding doors, where sand collects.
- The balcony floor, railing and any glass that can be reached.
- Large mirrors in entrances and dressing rooms.
Jeddah humidity and sea salt on glass: what changes in the cleaning
Anyone living in Al-Shati, Obhur or Al-Basateen knows the problem. You clean the glass today, and a few days later there is a dull film on it that ordinary wiping will not shift. That film is a mix of moisture, salt carried on the sea air and fine dust. Wipe it while it is dry and the salt crystals behave like sand on the glass, leaving fine scratches over time.
So our maids clean glass in homes near the sea in two stages: wet the film with water first so the salt dissolves, then use a proper glass cleaner with a clean microfibre cloth or a squeegee. The same goes for metal frames and balcony railings, because salt left on them speeds up rust and staining.
- Glass: water first to dissolve the salt, then glass cleaner, then dry from top to bottom.
- Aluminium and railings: a damp cloth followed by drying, never abrasive products that scratch the finish.
- AC vents: humidity makes dust stick to them, so they are wiped outside with a damp cloth.
- Bathroom corners: dark marks scrubbed with a suitable cleaner, then the bathroom aired.
- Fabrics and curtains: opening the windows during the visit, weather permitting, eases the musty smell.
How many hours and how many maids does your home need today?
The most common mistake we see is booking too few hours for a large home and then feeling the clean was never finished. This table is a rough guide for a home in normal condition; send us photos on WhatsApp and we can suggest something more precise:
What fits into a 4, 6 or 8-hour visit?
Take a three-bedroom apartment. This is what each option usually covers; a tick means the task is included:
If your home is bigger than that, or you want everything in the last column in less time, two maids are the answer. A 4-hour visit with two maids starts from SAR 385 and covers roughly what one maid does in eight hours, which works very well when the home has to be ready before sunset.
Cleaning maid prices today in Jeddah
A same-day clean costs the same as any other day. These are Al-Kauther’s starting prices in Jeddah; the final amount depends on your district and how far it is from the available maid, the number of hours and maids, and whether it is a morning or evening visit. We tell you the amount on WhatsApp before sending anyone.
What moves the amount up or down? First the district and distance: reaching a home in Obhur is not the same as reaching one in Al-Zahra when the available maid is in the centre. Then the number of hours and maids, then the evening shift, whose rate can differ. If you need a clean that is not in the table, such as a home after light renovation work, send photos and ask for a price on WhatsApp and we will come back with the details.
Trained Indonesian maids for home cleaning

The difference between a trained maid and an untrained one does not show in the first hour. It shows at the end: are there marks left on the marble? Has the wood changed colour? Did two cleaners get mixed and give off a choking smell? Our Indonesian maids are trained on exactly these details. They do not use acidic cleaners on marble, they never mix bleach with other products, and they know wood is wiped with a barely damp cloth, not a wet one.
We send Indonesian maids first, alongside other nationalities depending on availability that day, and we tell you the maid’s nationality before confirming. All of them are women working legally with valid iqamas, and ideally a woman of the household is at home during the visit to explain what she wants and check the result.
Getting the home ready for guests the same day
A call comes in at midday: guests are coming tonight. In that situation you do not need a full deep clean; you need priorities set by what the guests will actually see. This is what we suggest to the maid when the request is “before guests”:
- Entrance and hallway: shoes put away, the floor mopped, the mirror clean.
- Guest bathroom: a gleaming basin, fresh towels, air freshener and an empty bin.
- Majlis or living room: seating and rugs vacuumed, tables wiped, cushions arranged.
- Kitchen: clear, clean counters, dishes done and space ready to prepare refreshments.
- Whatever time is left: the children’s rooms or any room guests might see.
For an average home, 4 hours with one maid usually covers this list; for a large home or a tight deadline, two maids together are better. Mention in your message that guests are coming and when they arrive, so we can time it for the maid to finish comfortably before them.

Tools and cleaning materials
The maid arrives with the basic cleaning tools. Cleaning materials are agreed when you book: she either uses what you have at home, or we agree that she brings them. If you have special products for a particular surface, such as a marble cleaner, wood polish or leather cleaner, set them aside and point them out when she arrives; you know your home better than we do.
How to request a cleaning maid now
Send your district, the type of home, the areas you want cleaned and, if possible, two or three photos on WhatsApp to 0561940026. If you are using the booking form on this page, choose “Now” for an urgent request. We reply with what is available and the price, and once confirmed the maid can arrive within 30 minutes if she is close by; otherwise we tell you the expected arrival time. The visit is timed from the moment she arrives, and payment is on arrival, not before.
Jeddah districts we send cleaning maids to
In districts near the Corniche such as Al-Shati and Obhur, glass and balcony cleaning is requested a lot. In Al-Samer, Al-Marwah and Al-Safa, weekly cleaning of family apartments is more common, while villa residents in Al-Rawdah and Al-Khalidiyah tend to book 8-hour visits or two maids together. If your district is not listed, send your location and we will tell you what is available today.
Before the maid starts: notes that protect your home and your time
- Point out delicate surfaces: natural marble, solid wood or antiques, so she picks the right cleaner.
- Clear small items off surfaces if you can; she cleans faster when she is not moving every piece.
- Keep wardrobes closed if they are not on the list, and mention any room that stays shut.
- Ask at the end about anything left unfinished; adding half an hour on the spot is easier than a new visit.
