Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to common questions about weekly cleaning schedules.

How do I use the weekly cleaning schedule template?

Download the PDF or Excel version, then fill in your clients, the tasks for each visit and how often they repeat. Update it whenever your bookings change.

Can I customise the template?

Yes — the Excel version is fully editable, so you can add columns, rename tasks or adjust the layout to suit how you work.

How do I decide how long each clean will take?

A good starting point is your past experience with a similar home. Build in a buffer for larger or more detailed cleans until you're confident in your estimate.

Should I include travel time?

Yes — adding travel time between bookings helps you avoid running late and gives a more realistic view of your day.

Can I use this template for one-off cleans?

Yes, though it is designed with recurring clients in mind. For one-off cleans you can simply add a single row for that date.

What if a client's schedule changes?

Update their row in your template as soon as the change is confirmed, and double-check for any knock-on effect on your travel time between other bookings.
