About this research programme
We publish questions the available evidence can answer. Company service records tell us about fulfilled bookings; population surveys answer different questions. Our research does not claim national representativeness for Simply Maid customers or infer personal motives from their bookings.
Practical advice lives in Cleaning 101, hiring a cleaner and moving. Current rates and comparisons live in pricing.
Data and source dates are explicit. New editions preserve dated aggregate files so older citations remain checkable. For calculations, limitations and corrections, start with the pillar methods.
