What does house cleaning include?

Our cleaning service covers sweeping, mopping, dusting, kitchen cleaning and general housework. Ironing and bathroom cleaning are not included, so please mention any other tasks when you book and we will confirm what is possible.

When do I pay?

You pay after the service is done, not before. There is no advance payment to book, so you only pay for work that has actually been completed.

Is there a cancellation fee?

No. Because payment is only collected after the service is done, there is no cancellation fee. Just let the mAidpool team know as early as you can so we can inform your maid.

Can I get a replacement maid?

Yes. If your maid is not the right fit or becomes unavailable, contact mAidpool and we will arrange a replacement, usually within 3 to 6 days.

How are maids verified?

We collect identity, experience, reference and background-verification information before approving a maid profile. Every profile is reviewed by the mAidpool team before it can be matched with a customer.

Which areas do you serve?

We serve South Bangalore, including JP Nagar, Jayanagar and BTM Layout, along with many other Bangalore localities. Share your address when you book and our team will confirm coverage.

Are maid agencies in Bangalore safe to hire?

Check that the agency verifies identity, references and police verification before a maid starts, and that it names a replacement policy in writing. mAidpool reviews every maid profile before matching, and replaces a maid who is not the right fit usually within 3 to 6 days. You pay only after the service is done, and there is no advance payment.

What should I check before hiring a maid?

Ask for identity proof and police verification, check two references, agree the hours, tasks and rate in writing, and confirm what is not included (for example ironing or bathroom cleaning at mAidpool). Avoid agencies that ask for large upfront fees. Our published rates are ₹180 an hour for cleaning and ₹200 an hour for cooking and care, with ₹2,500 for a full 9-hour day.

How do I join as a maid?

Use the maid registration form to submit your experience, services, references, and documents. Profiles remain pending until reviewed by the mAidpool team.
