    Lawns I have paddock mine cost $40 front and back.
    I get these done when DH is away or during summer so he doesn't have to.
    Cleaner she comes does 2hrs for $50 and she pretty much cleans my entire house. I love her, she comes in once a fortnight and just 'tops' up my regular clean DH does not know about her but she is my 'luxury'.
    Sorry don't have a pool

    A friend of my mum cleans - she charges about $25 an hour (cash). She provides her own cleaning gear. She cleans one lady's house who *insists* on paying $30/hour - makes me think I'm in the wrong job
    My neighbour used to clean my house, two hours a fortnight for $40. In that time she'd vacuum/mop (3 brm house), do two bathrooms/toilets, clean the kitchen from top to bottom, dust and clean a window/blind or two or iron or whatever else I wanted if she had time. I provided everything. That was about two years ago.
    I looked at a cleaner through a company and they had weekly minimum hours or wanted to do things I didn't need (e.g. deodorise carpets, clean oven etc) plus they were around $35/hour.
    I was at work when the cleaner came, but my mum has had a cleaner and been home. I'd want to know the cleaner or have them recommended by someone I know before I'd be comfortable leaving them in my house alone...

    My neighbour owns a mowing franchise - his official rate, through the business, for doing our lawn (normal sized) was around $70! It takes DH less than 45 mins... We desperately need someone, but there's no way we can afford that. I've seen local guys with ads who'll do it for half that, but we're afraid we'll get found out by the neighbour and get offended, lol!

    Can't help with the pool cleaning either...
