How do cleaning companies charge?
There are four common models: by the hour, per square metre, a fixed package per job, or a recurring contract. Homes and small jobs are often priced hourly or as a package; offices and large surfaces are usually priced per m² or by contract.
Indicative prices in Belgium
As a rough guide, expect around €25 to €45 per hour depending on the task and region. Recurring contracts lower the effective rate because the work is planned and optimised. These are indicative figures — the real price always depends on your space.
What drives the price?
- Surface area and the type of premises
- How dirty the space is and the level of detail required
- Frequency (one-off vs recurring)
- Accessibility, height and special equipment
- Products and any disinfection needs
One-off or recurring contract?
A regular contract is almost always more economical than repeated one-off visits, and it keeps your space consistently clean. For a deep clean or after-build, a one-off intervention makes sense.
What about VAT?
In Belgium, cleaning is invoiced at the standard 21% VAT rate. Between businesses, the VAT reverse-charge (co-contractor) rule can apply for works in immovable state.

Frequently asked questions
Is a cleaning company cheaper than hiring directly?
Often, once you count employer admin, insurance, holidays, products and equipment — all included with a company, with no management for you.
Can I get a fixed monthly price?
Yes. With a recurring contract you get a predictable budget and a consistent result, usually at a lower effective rate.
