I clean my apartment myself, but I feel once in a while an ultra-thorough clean is required.

Does anybody know of anybody who cleans apartments?

Thank you.

Check the post from gosia. I believe it was the first week in January. Gosia has a cleaning woman who is looking for more work.

I'm sorry to resurrect this thread, but I will soon change apartments and may need a cleaner. My school say they will get somebody to clean the apartment, but I fear it may not be up to scratch.

When I originally posted this thread, some kind posters sent me a pm and gave me contact details of various cleaners. I foolishly neglected to keep those details safe.

So.......if you know of any cleaners and their contact details, please provide me with them. Thank you in advance.

Thank you very much indeed. I'm glad you've posted it on the actual thread. There's no chance I can lose it now (unless you edit your post).

Thanks again.

Hi, I'm looking for a housekeeper too. And could probably get a few of my roomates in on it too for 5 hours of work/week or so

The only problem is that I live out in the country. About a 20 minutes busride from Cheonan/Asan Station.

I've tried Arvie's phone a few times, I get a recorded message in Korean.

I hope she is still around.

I got through to Arvie and I called the number of another contact. Thanks everybody.

Prices: From what I've heard, having a Korean ajuma clean should be fairly cheap, if you go through a local YWCA or Women's center. Maybe 5000-8000 per hour. The foreigners that I talked to wanted around 10,000 per hour, but they (being mostly Filipino) speak English, and that's worth an extra few thousand won.

Let me know if you need any help.

*edit* removed details as that person is no longer cleaning
