Have you ever wondered how long home cleaning takes every day? That should be easy. How about every week or every month? Now that’s hard. Between the daily tasks like sweeping and weekly tasks like cleaning the fridge and mopping the house, it’s tough to tell how much of our time we spend cleaning.
According to recent studies, the average person spends over 23 hours cleaning every month. That’s around 5 hours a week give or take. Imagine what you could do with all that time if you could take it back. Let’s see how long it really takes to clean.

Bathroom
Your bathroom needs to be cleaned at least weekly because it is where you wash off a lot of dirt and because it is almost always wet, it is a breeding ground for a lot of germs. It can be dangerous if left unattended. You can easily slip and fall in a dirty bathroom.
On a weekly basis, it would take you about 30 minutes to 1 hour to clean your bathroom. This includes scrubbing the floor and walls, cleaning and disinfecting toilets, the shower, bathtubs, and more.
Kitchen
The amount of time it takes to clean your kitchen depends on how much you cook and how frequently you clean as you cook. Cleaning a kitchen that’s not cleaned regularly will take about an hour or more as there will be a lot of accumulated grease and grime that needs to be gotten rid of. It usually involves cleaning exposed surfaces, and equipment like cookers, ovens, and grills. There are also floors and cabinets.
Sitting Room
The sitting room is usually the largest room in most houses and is attached to the dining. It also contains a lot of furniture and appliances so it can take a lot of time to clean. It takes over an hour or more to clean it thoroughly. You’ll have to sweep, vacuum, mop, wipe, dust, clean, and arrange. People spend a lot more time in your sitting room, so it will have a lot more dirt than usual.
Bedroom
This is usually the easiest to clean as most bedrooms are occupied by beds so there’s not much dirt on the covered part. How long it takes you depends on how scattered the room is and how much decluttering and arrangement you need to do. This alone can take you about 30 minutes. Then you have to sweep, mop, vacuum and disinfect. It takes a while to get all of this done. If you have more than one, that’s double the time.
Other Spaces
Depending on the kind of house, you might have other spaces like balconies, verandahs, corridors, closets, staircases etc. Each would take different times depending on how complicated and exposed the place is.
