£17:50 to £20 an hour is the usual rate here and gardeners can be anything from £20 to £40 an hour.
I would offer her £35 for her two hours, if she doesn’t accept, just a generous Christmas present.

My son is a gardener and gets paid much less...

My Wonderful Cleaner has been with me for 24 years and I pay £75 for around four hours plus a substantial Christmas gift and paid holiday. Worth every penny!

I pay my cleaning lady 50 euros for two hours. Well worth it for me as my health is not so good now and I like a clean house.

Sorry it went too quickly.

I would either up to £35 or if she’s the sort that says no, no, I’d do a couple of bonuses a year of the extra I wanted to pay in a lump sum🙂

A brilliant cleaner is hard to find. Any sort of cleaner is hard to find!!!

I pay my cleaner £30 for 2 hours. This is £2 less than she originally asked for. She is a local lady and now feels like a friend. She is brilliant ... beavers around and uses her initiative... if she knows my DD is coming to stay she will sort the spare room make the bed etc unasked.
I pay the person who cuts my toenails £35 and she is here for 10 minutes ... in and then out.
I want to increase the cleaner's pay ... what figure would others suggest? What do others pay? I am thinking to go for the £35 as a start .....
