What Is the Standard Rate of House Cleaning in Dallas

I had bought a couple for a green cleaning service a few months ago and went to schedule them. But they are now asking a surcharge for just about everything from a slightly larger house to being in their out of service area ( which is not even mentioned in the coupon). Its coming to be about 100$ coupon amount + about 75$ surcharge amount. The coupon includes 1 time deep cleaning and 1 regular cleaning. I am not sure if the surcharge is applied a second time for the regular cleaning or not.

I thought I was getting a great deal with this coupon, but doesn't look like that anymore. I am wondering if this is even somewhat less than the standard cleaning costs of the 1st time deep cleaning and a 1 regular cleaning service. I have a little over 2500 sq feet house. How much is normally paid for house cleaning service?
Thanks!

It depends on what they mean by deep clean. My house is about 2500 sq feet and I pay $80. I only have it done about 4 times a year, so it is more than just a weekly type clean, but she doesn't do laundry, windows or anything extra. If you are saying that it is going to cost $175 for a one-time deep cleaning, then I would say that is not a deal. It might be worth it if they are going to move furniture, clean baseboards, windows, appliances, ceiling fans, etc. But it is no special deal. If the $175 is for two separate cleanings, then I would say it is still no big savings. Just about what is normal.

Sounds like a huge rip-off! My cleaning lady charges (including her 1st time out) $100 for 8,000 square feet, 5 bedrooms, 5+2 half baths, etc. She doesn't do laundry at my request but cleans out fridge, vents, light fixtures, windows, etc. I provide cleaning supplies.

I have 2200 ft and my ladies charge $70 for every 2 weeks, regular cleaning, not a deep cleaning. I am in Plano. They are not a green cleaning service. I do give them vinegar for mopping the floors.
