What's Included in Every Clean

  • Skirting boards dusted
  • Cobwebs removed

House Cleaning in Brighton

Brighton is one of Melbourne's most prestigious bayside suburbs, sitting in postcode 3186 about 11km south of the CBD. The housing stock runs from grand Victorian and Edwardian mansions on Cole Street and Park Street, to contemporary coastal homes along the bay, to apartments and townhouses around Church Street and Bay Street. Excel has been cleaning homes across Brighton since 2013.

Our Brighton house cleaning service covers postcode 3186, plus the surrounding bayside suburbs of Brighton East (3187), Hampton (3188), Elsternwick (3185), Gardenvale (3185), Caulfield South (3162), and Ripponlea (3185).

House Cleaning in Brighton

Our cleaners know the area, including the parking patterns around Church Street and Martin Street on weekends, the established gardens of Brighton's iconic period mansions, the iconic Brighton beach boxes, and the larger blocks that often need extra time. Most Brighton bookings are weekly or fortnightly cleans of larger homes, with some NDIS-funded household tasks.

You'll get the same cleaner every visit, fully insured and police-checked, with all products and equipment included.

Why Brighton Residents Choose Excel Cleaning

Here’s what keeps Brighton homes booking with us.

Why Brighton Residents Choose Excel Cleaning

Local Cleaners Who Know the Area

Your cleaner services Brighton and the surrounding area regularly. They know the local streets, they're familiar with the housing styles, and they arrive on time because they're not driving across the city.

Same Cleaner Every Visit

Once we match you with a cleaner, they're your cleaner. No app rotations, no different person each week. They learn your home and your preferences.

Insured & Police-Checked

Every Excel cleaner is fully insured and holds a current police check. We hire employees, not subcontractors, so you always have recourse.

Flexible Scheduling

Weekly, fortnightly, or monthly. Mornings, afternoons, weekdays. We work around your schedule, not the other way around.

No Lock-In Contracts

Cancel or pause any time, no questions asked. We earn your business every visit, not by tying you in.

326 Melbourne Suburbs

From Toorak to Craigieburn, Brunswick to Berwick. We cover Melbourne's inner, eastern, northern, western, and south-eastern suburbs.

Family-Owned, Melbourne-Focused

Family-Owned, Melbourne-Focused

Excel Cleaning is a Melbourne family business, trading since 2013 and backed by 30+ years of family experience in the trade. We started with one cleaner and a boot full of supplies, and have grown carefully, one household at a time, by treating our cleaners well and our customers like neighbours.

We don't run a national franchise model. We don't farm bookings out to gig-economy contractors. Every cleaner is an Excel employee, trained the same way, police-checked, insured, and accountable to us. When something goes wrong, you call the same family-run office in Melbourne, not a call centre.

That’s why we’ve completed 500k+ cleans and earned a 4.8 rating from 269 reviews across Google, Product Review and more.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about cleaning in Brighton. Can't find the answer? Get in touch.

We price by the hour, with a 2-hour minimum, and the rate is the same in Brighton as everywhere else we clean. For an exact figure, use See My Price or call the office. A real person answers and will talk you through it, no obligation.

Two hours is our minimum booking. For a small one-bedroom apartment or unit, that is usually enough for the kitchen, bathroom, vacuuming and mopping. Larger homes typically need three to four hours. Use See My Price for a quote on your home.

In a 3-hour clean, our cleaners typically complete kitchen (benchtops, stovetop, sink, surface cabinets), bathrooms (toilet, basin, shower, mirror), 2 to 3 bedrooms (dust, vacuum, beds), and living areas (vacuum, mop, dust). A first visit can take a little longer while your cleaner learns your home.

Yes. We service Brighton East (3187), Hampton (3188), and Elsternwick (3185), along with surrounding bayside suburbs including Gardenvale, Caulfield South, and Ripponlea. Same service and the same rate across all of these suburbs.

Same-day availability depends on the day and our cleaner schedule. We try to accommodate urgent bookings. Call us or fill out the quote form and we'll let you know within 30 minutes if a same-day clean is possible.

Yes. Excel is a registered NDIS provider, and we also clean for aged care clients through Support at Home and DVA arrangements. Call the office and we will talk through what your funding covers.

No, you don't need to be home. Many of our Brighton clients give us a key, garage code, or lockbox code, or leave a hidden key on the day. We're fully insured and police-checked, so you can trust your cleaner with access. If you'd prefer to be home for the first visit so you can walk through your preferences in person, that's also welcome.

Everything. Our Brighton cleaners arrive with all products, cloths, mops, and vacuums included as standard. If you'd prefer we use specific products you already have (such as eco-friendly brands, fragrance-free formulas, or specialty stone-floor cleaner), just let us know in your booking notes and we'll use yours instead.
