Hearth & Home Housekeeping Kitchener house cleaning

Hearth & Home Housekeeping is a family-run Kitchener house cleaning service started by Lisa Ram and her daughters in July 2017. We help busy households keep kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, living areas, and detailed problem spots feeling cared for.

Book recurring housekeeping, starting with a deep reset, or a detail-focused visit built around the rooms and routines that matter most in your home.

About Us

Friendly help for busy households

Hearth & Home Housekeeping is friendly, personal, and detail-aware. We listen before we start, pay attention to the parts of the home that bother you most, and make note so future visits can be more consistent.

Clients often ask for help with bathrooms, kitchens, floors, dusting, dishes, tidying, small and large appliances and other special requests before guests arrive. We talk through priorities before preparing an estimate.

How We Can Help

Customized service plans

We build each plan around your home, your schedule, and your priorities. You can book a regular full visit or ask us to focus on certain rooms and tasks.

Homes are different, so the best cleaning plan depends on size, layout, pets, people in the home, bathrooms, bedrooms, basement type, and the level of detail requested.

Service Area

House cleaning in Kitchener and nearby towns

We focus on Kitchener and nearby Waterloo Region communities where travel time still leaves enough room for careful work. Current service-area requests may include Waterloo, Cambridge, Guelph, Breslau, Baden, Ayr, New Hamburg, Elmira, St. Jacobs, St. Clements, Wellesley, Wilmot, Puslinch, Conestogo, Maryhill, Heidelberg, Morriston, New Dundee, and St. Agatha.

If your address is near the edge of the area, send it through the estimate form. We route those requests for review instead of overpromising a visit we cannot comfortably support.

Estimates

What affects the estimate

The clearest estimates include the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, people in the home, pets, home type, basement status, service frequency, and any special tasks. A tidy condo and a busy family house can need very different plans even when the square footage is similar.

We also consider whether the first visit is a routine clean or a deeper reset. That context helps us prepare instead of guessing.

Supplies

Prepared visits work better

Clients usually get the best results when supplies are ready. We come prepared with basic supplies (glass cleaner, mild degreaser & floor product, linens & scrubbies), but we use your household equipment such as: broom, dust pan, vacuum, mop system, toilet bowl cleaner & toilet brushes, garbage bags and paper towels. If you prefer certain products, please let us know before we visit.

The goal is simple: fewer delays, clearer expectations, and more time spent cleaning.

Pets

Tell us about animals in the home

Pet hair, litter boxes, dog letting, gates, and anxious pets can all change the plan. A quick note helps us arrive prepared.

Scheduling

Recurring visits build rhythm

Weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly routines help keep surfaces from building up and make each visit easier to plan.

Detail Work

Point out the problem spots

Baseboards, small and large appliances, doors, trim, picture windows, linen changes, and laundry are easier to fit in when named early.

How Visits Work

Clear priorities before we start

A good house cleaning visit starts with a clear list. Some clients want the kitchen, bathrooms, and floors handled first. Others care most about dusting, bedrooms, dishes, laundry, or detailed areas that are easy to miss during a busy week. When priorities are clear, we can spend the visit where it matters instead of guessing.

Before preparing an estimate, we ask for the address, home type, number of rooms, number of bathrooms, pets, people in the home, basement details, and any special requests. That information helps us understand the level of care needed and whether the address fits our current service area. If the first visit needs extra detail work, we would rather know early and plan enough time than rush through the list.

Client Feedback

What clients notice

Amazing! Staff was super easy to work with and was VERY attentive to detail. They cleaned things I hadn't even thought to mention within the space.
