Well-Paid Maids Has Raised Wages Again!

Well-Paid Maids, the D.C. area’s only living-wage home cleaning company, has raised its starting wage again.

Our new minimum wage is $24 per hour, a full $7 higher than the D.C. minimum wage. And, of course, we continue to offer our industry-leading benefits package including 24 paid days off per year, health, dental, and vision insurance, and 100% employer-paid commuting costs.

Since our founding in 2017, Well-Paid Maids has raised its starting wage by $8, beating inflation from then til now by $4. Why? It’s in the name! We believe all our staff deserve a living-wage plus benefits. Not only is it the right thing to do, it means better quality service for our customers.

But don’t take our word for it. Check us out on YelpGoogle, and Nextdoor to see hundreds of 5-star reviews from satisfied customers. Book now and see the difference a living wage makes!

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!

Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.

Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
