Why Cleaning Your Own Home Is More Expensive Than You Think
Doing it yourself feels free, but the hidden costs make it one of the most expensive choices you can make.
Most people think cleaning their own home saves money. On the surface it makes sense. You're not paying anyone else, so it has to be cheaper. But when you look closer, the math tells a different story. Cleaning your own home can actually cost you more than hiring a professional service.
Cost 1: Your Time Has Real Value
Think about how much you earn per hour. Now multiply that by the 10 or more hours you spend cleaning each month. If you make $25 an hour, that's $250 of your time gone. Suddenly, "free" cleaning doesn't look free at all.
Cost 2: Supplies and Mistakes Add Up
Most people overspend on supplies because they don't know the exact product for each job. You end up buying duplicates, throwing out half-used bottles, or damaging surfaces that cost even more to fix. Professionals bring the right tools and products every time, which means less waste and no expensive mistakes.
Cost 3: The Opportunity Cost
Every hour you scrub is an hour you can't spend on something else. It's time you lose with your family, with your career, or even with yourself. What's the price of missing a soccer game or a night out because you had to deep clean the kitchen? Some costs don't show up on your bank statement, but they matter just as much.
