Hourly maids in Al Murabba, central Riyadh, can be booked from Al-Kauther Home Services for a one-off visit or a fixed weekly slot: a single maid for four hours starts from SAR 135, and a short two-hour call-out from SAR 90. Call 0561940026, or WhatsApp us your building number and floor, and we will set a morning or evening time.
Al Murabba is one of Riyadh’s oldest districts and sits close to the city’s historic core. Most homes listed here today are flats and studios in long-standing apartment blocks, with a scattering of older villas that have broad halls and high ceilings. That mix means needs vary widely: a studio tenant needs very little time, while a family in an old villa may want a full, well-planned working day before an occasion. This page explains how we choose the length with you and what the maid actually does in each kind of home.

Al Murabba, Riyadh: older homes at the heart of the city
Administratively Al Murabba belongs to the Al Malaz sub-municipality in the middle of the city, and for most Riyadh residents its name is tied to the historic Murabba Palace. The district is also mentioned today in connection with the announced New Murabba project to redevelop the downtown area — a scheme still in development that does not change the homes we serve right now. Streets that come up in local housing listings include Abi Bakr Ibn Al Arabi, Prince Faisal bin Turki bin Abdulaziz, Prince Abdullah bin Jalawi bin Turki and Rawd Al Uyun.
What matters to an hourly maid in all this is very practical: most residents live in flats inside buildings that have stood for decades, with a shared staircase, old tiles or marble underfoot and wrought-iron balconies that gather dust. Those details shape the method, the tools and the time needed far more than the number of rooms alone.
Flats and studios in Al Murabba’s older blocks
A studio or one-bedroom flat does not need a long visit. Two hours usually covers mopping the floors, cleaning the bathroom and kitchenette, washing up and tidying the bed and clothes. It suits employees, students and couples living on their own who want a tidy home once a week without paying for a full visit.
A family flat with two or three bedrooms normally needs four hours, because the work widens to washing and ironing clothes, a deeper kitchen clean and wiping the windows from the inside. Older buildings have their own habits: dust creeps in around metal window frames, and old tiles hold stains in the grout lines, so we ask the maid to give the floors proper time rather than a quick once-over.
Tip: If you are on the third floor or higher with no lift, leave the cleaning products you prefer ready in the flat, so the maid can start the moment she arrives.
How much is an hourly maid in Al Murabba?
Al Murabba follows the same Riyadh price table. Every figure below is a starting price; it rises or holds depending on how long you book, how many maids come, how big the home is and when the visit takes place.
The rate card Al-Kauther Home Services applies across Riyadh’s districts; all amounts are starting prices.
So what pushes the price above the starting figure? In Al Murabba, the biggest time-taker is preparing older villas for occasions, because their halls are large and full of furniture. Evening and Friday slots are confirmed, along with their price, when you book. And if your job is out of the ordinary, describe it and ask for a price over WhatsApp.
Balconies and old patterned tiles
Wrought-iron balconies are a signature of Al Murabba’s older houses, and after a windy spell they are the first place dust settles. The maid wipes the bars and scrollwork with a damp cloth from inside, washes and dries the balcony floor and cleans the glass door leading out to it. Coloured cement tiles call for a gentle product that will not fade them, which is why we ask about your flooring when you book.

One important point: balcony work is done from inside the balcony only. The maid will not climb the railing or lean out to clean the façade — that is hazardous work outside the visit, and exterior façades are best left to specialist firms with the right equipment.
Visit length by type of home in Al Murabba
Pick the length closest to your home, then adjust after the first visit. Plenty of clients start with four hours and find their balconies and windows need one more, or that a short weekly visit serves them better than a long monthly one.

Older villas in Al Murabba often have generous reception halls where the wider family gathers for Eid and celebrations. Preparing a room like that takes hours, not minutes: vacuuming the rugs, polishing tables and surfaces, dusting any low chandeliers that can be reached safely, fitting chair covers and lining the chairs up in rows, cleaning the guest bathrooms and then laying out the hospitality corner with cups and coffee pots.

Jobs like this call for a full 8-hour booking (starting from SAR 230); if the date is close, a pair of maids working four hours together (starting from SAR 290) gets there sooner. After the occasion, a second visit gathers the covers, washes the serving ware and puts the hall back as it was.
Where an hourly maid’s job ends
An hourly maid handles cleaning, tidying, laundry, ironing and serving guests at occasions. Cooking banquets or full meals is not part of her work, though she will help with whatever preparation you ask for and clean the kitchen afterwards. Nor is she a substitute for looking after children or elderly relatives — they remain the family’s responsibility. Having a woman of the family at home during the visit makes things smoother for everyone.
Reaching Al Murabba’s buildings: what we need from you
Central Riyadh streets are busy, parking is limited and the apartment blocks stand close together and look alike. So at booking we ask for four details: the building’s map location, the flat number and floor, whether there is a lift, and the nearest landmark the driver will recognise. The company brings the maid and takes her back, and your time is counted from the moment she enters the flat.
- Morning shift: arrival roughly between 8 and 10 — best if you want everything finished before noon.
- Evening shift: arrival roughly between 4 and 6, with availability confirmed at booking.
- Lift: if there is none, mention the floor so the maid is ready to carry her equipment up.
- Caretaker: if the building has one, let him know when the maid is due.
Booking an hourly maid in Al Murabba, step by step

Want the same maid next time? Give her name when you book and we will send her whenever her schedule allows. If your plans move, tell us as soon as you can and we will find a suitable alternative.
Regular visits every week or more
Instead of booking each time, you can take a monthly package of hourly visits. One four-hour visit a week, in the four-visit package, starts from SAR 460 a month; two a week, in the eight-visit package, from SAR 875; and three a week, in the twelve-visit package, from SAR 1,320. In every package the maid comes and goes within the visit.
Legally employed maids: what it means for you
With an irregular worker the risk does not fall on her alone but also on the home that hires her. Under Saudi rules, employing or housing someone in breach of residency and labour law can lead to fines climbing to SAR 100,000 together with up to half a year in jail, and a sponsor who lets their domestic worker take outside jobs faces fines reaching SAR 20,000. Every Al-Kauther maid works through us on a valid iqama, has been trained, and comes in modest uniform.
Nationalities on offer
Maids come from African and Asian nationalities according to availability at booking time — Kenyan and Ugandan are typical. Should one nationality suit your household better, note it in your request and we will check it against your slot.
