Domestic services cover practical work carried out in or around people's homes to help with everyday household tasks. Providers may offer regular or one-off domestic cleaning, including dusting, vacuuming, mopping floors, cleaning kitchens and bathrooms, and changing bed linen. Some also provide laundry and ironing, window cleaning, or help with organising and maintaining a home. The work may be arranged directly with an individual cleaner or through a business supplying domestic staff. Depending on the provider, services can include household assistance for older or disabled people, such as help with light chores, shopping or meal preparation. Other businesses in this broad category may offer gardening, minor home maintenance or deep cleaning, but the tasks and level of support vary. Customers can usually discuss the work required, how often it is needed, access to the property and any preferences about products or equipment before a service is arranged.
