I'm looking for someone to clean a 2-story house in Chang Phuak near the Tesco on the super highway. We don't speak Thai so a bit of English would be much preferred. Once a week for half a day seems likely.

Any recommendations?

Recommend you offer a full days work,as cannot get a lot done in half a day,also

take in the maids time to travel and the expense,half a day would not be viable,its

not easy finding a good reliable and honest maid,the price they charge would be

between 350 -500 bht per day,and they would move on, at the drop of a hat if they

did not like you or the job.good luck finding a decent one.

Agree with the above. A quality honest maid is not looking for just half day per week. Best offer 2 visits per week, and expect to pay at least 500 baht/visit.

We are already looking for 3 months now.

3 day's a week for 500 per day.

Not easy to find !

good luck with that. when you find a good one, never let her go. close to impossible to replace. and i agree 500 Bath 2 X per week before anyone will be interested.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the minimum wage was now 600 baht a day.

"We"...is this a foreign couple & neither of you clean. A 2-bedroom house in Thailand is tiny. Is it only Americans that tend to cook & clean on their own (they also tend more likely, share in duties while in a Thai relationship). However if you're rich double it to a thousand a day.

You are wrong, it is more like 300.

Yes! I got muddled - I had a 6 in my head but that's because 300 baht is around £6.

As later corrected it's 300 baht/day. But that is the wage for full time employment with maybe some benefits (transport/health care). You cannot compare that wage to a casual worker who has to travel from job to job every day or half day, maybe some days with no work. 500 baht for a half day is normal and a good cleaner will command more from satisfied customers.

Pinging this again just in case anyone has some feedback about how to actually find a cleaner. Twice a week would be OK as well if that's what it takes.

Sort of made friends with a local shop owner recently. Maybe he could put the word out in our neighborhood as well.
