A typical 4,000 sq ft residence on twice-weekly standing service runs between $2,100 and $2,800 a month. The assessment produces a monthly estimate; we hold to it within 5% or the difference is ours. Rates are reviewed each January and no increase has exceeded inflation since 2019.
Reviews
In our clients' words
Referral-based. Every current client was introduced by another.
“We had three services in eleven years before Pristine. The difference is the protocol. Someone wrote down that the library floor is shellac, not polyurethane, and nobody has put water on it since.”
“The same two housekeepers for six years. They know when we travel, they know the alarm, and I have never once had to explain anything twice.”
“After the renovation, three companies quoted a single visit. Pristine quoted three staged visits and explained why. They were right — the dust came back twice.”
Service area
Residences we serve
Routes are kept geographically tight so that a household manager can attend any residence within twenty minutes. That is the practical limit on where we can take work.

Held to the estimate, in writing
Your quarterly estimate is a commitment. If a service runs long because we misjudged the scope, the additional hours are not billed. If your household changes, we revise the estimate with you before the next invoice, never after it.
FAQ
Questions we get asked
Still unsure? Call Demo phone and a real person in your city picks up.
Why is there a waiting list?
Because the number of residences is capped at sixty. Growing past that means household managers stop knowing houses personally, which is the entire product.
Who has keys and codes?
Your assigned pair and your household manager. Every one of them has signed a discretion agreement and passed criminal and reference checks that we repeat every two years.
What products do you use?
Conservation-grade, pH-correct products chosen per surface. The full list, with safety data sheets, is attached to your protocol document.
Do you work while we are away?
Yes, and most clients prefer it. You receive a short written report after each service, including anything we noticed — a slow drain, a loose baluster, a stain that appeared.
An assessment is the only way to quote a house properly
Ninety minutes, walked room by room with the household manager who will own your account. There is no charge and no follow-up call unless you ask for one.
