Local insight
Nearly half of Surry Hills households were one person living alone at the 2021 Census (47%), and about 66% of homes were rented. Our 1,169 cleans here since 2016, for 229 households, reflect both a settled core and a lot of coming and going: every 2 weeks was the most common schedule at 39% of visits, but one-offs were close behind at 31%, and 32 households booked ten times or more. Just over half of the cleans (51%) were for 2-bedroom homes. We completed 5 cleans in Surry Hills in the last 12 months, the latest in October 2026, and customers rated us 4.6 out of 5 across 164 ratings.

Surry Hills · Customer feedback
Read what customers tell us after their clean, from the details they appreciated to whether they’d book again.
Themes from positive customer feedback.
85 customer records include more than one completed visit out of 229 customer records with completed visits in Surry Hills.
These figures count bookings and feedback recorded for addresses in Surry Hills. Repeat visits count separately, so cleans are not homes. Frequency shares use all recorded completed visits with a recognised frequency, including older history; they do not measure current demand. Customer records use distinct customer identifiers within one suburb, not verified home addresses, and are never summed across suburbs. Checked 14 October 2026.
Customer feedback is the rating a customer gave after a clean: each counts once, low scores included. Earlier feedback used “bad”, “OK” or “good”; those count as 2, 3 and 5 stars, the same equivalents we have always used. Comments quoted for Surry Hills are published comments from customers who rated the clean 4 or 5 stars. The average includes every rating.
Google reviews are a separate source, shown as the Sydney listing reports them, and are never averaged together with our customer feedback. Across all locations: 4.6 / 5 from 9,888 customer feedback ratings; 4.7 / 5 from 781 reviews on our 6 Google listings.

Plan for it before the day. In our booking records for postcode 2010 (Surry Hills and Darlinghurst, 2016 to 2026), 83 of the 364 households we cleaned for mentioned parking in their booking notes. That's almost one in four, among the highest shares in the Sydney postcodes we checked and well above Paddington, Bondi and Coogee. If you have a visitor permit, a car space or a loading zone nearby, put it in your booking notes. We never add parking costs to your booking, but if there's nowhere safe to park, the clean may need to be rescheduled.
