Find a cleaner in Zurich: define your needs first

It is easier to find suitable cleaning help when tasks, time and expectations are clear. Do you need routine bathroom, kitchen and floor care, or specialist work? List priorities and identify delicate surfaces.

PUTZIO offers regular apartment cleaning. After verified payment, the team manually offers the job to a suitable verified person. Booking does not automatically select a particular cleaner; assignment is confirmed only after that person accepts.

Questions that make the job clear

Ask about experience with your actual materials rather than assuming that “professional” covers every skill. Oiled wood, natural stone and delicate coatings need specific care instructions.

Put requests in priority order. Extra tasks take time and must fit the service offered. A longer list does not automatically extend booked hours or available services.

Check price and equipment before booking

PUTZIO regular apartment cleaning costs CHF 40 per booked hour; three hours cost CHF 120. The cleaner brings products without a materials surcharge. Provide a vacuum, mop and bucket when needed.

Check your postcode and town in the form. Allow at least 24 hours’ notice and read the terms shown before payment. Office, end-of-tenancy and specialist cleaning are not currently bookable services.

Understand verification and reviews realistically

PUTZIO reviews the required verification details and evidence before approving a cleaner. Approval does not guarantee a particular cleaning result or replace clear task instructions.

Available reviews may help you assess communication, punctuality and similar tasks. Read specific descriptions and their context. Individual reviews, or a lack of reviews, do not establish how your own visit will go.

Changes, access and future visits

After acceptance is confirmed, agree access with the assigned person. Share priorities and special notes without posting key codes or other access details publicly.

If your plans change, use the booking process and check the current change and cancellation terms. Last-minute changes are not automatically available. Each later visit is booked separately; the same cleaner is not automatically guaranteed.

Clarify terms and responsibilities

Before booking, read who enters each agreement and which terms cover damage or complaints. Do not infer insurance cover from verification or a platform name. For specific insurance questions, request relevant details and clarify coverage with the insurer.

Direct private employment raises its own questions. Our private-employment and AHV guide provides orientation; it does not automatically describe your particular relationship with PUTZIO. Prepare the first visit with a short task list.
