How we collect and count feedback

These figures add up the published suburbs in the Inner West area. Repeat visits count separately, so cleans are not homes. Frequency shares use all recorded completed visits with a recognised frequency, including older history; they do not measure current demand. Customer records use distinct customer identifiers within one suburb, not verified home addresses, and are never summed across suburbs. Checked 15 October 2026.

Customer feedback is the rating a customer gave after a clean: each counts once, low scores included. Earlier feedback used “bad”, “OK” or “good”; those count as 2, 3 and 5 stars, the same equivalents we have always used. Comments quoted for Inner West are published comments from customers who rated the clean 4 or 5 stars. The average includes every rating.

Google reviews are a separate source, shown as the Sydney listing reports them, and are never averaged together with our customer feedback. Across all locations: 4.6 / 5 from 9,890 customer feedback ratings; 4.7 / 5 from 781 reviews on our 6 Google listings.

About these figures

These figures describe recorded completed cleans in the Inner West, including historical bookings. Repeat visits count separately, so this counts cleans rather than homes. Your own address and date are checked when you book. Hub figures add up the records of the suburbs published under this hub; a suburb counts once even where it spans two postcodes. Home sizes use the 7,360 records that carry a bedroom count; hourly bookings carry none. Service percentages use the standard, deep and end of lease cleans in these records; hourly and custom bookings, which we no longer offer, count towards the total but are not listed.
