Time is priceless: Why Merry Maids works

Between work, family, and everyday life, finding time to clean your home can be difficult. At Merry Maids, we believe keeping your home clean should be simple. Our professional home cleaning services have helped households across the UK enjoy spotless homes and more free time for over 35 years.

The Merry Maids difference

Merry Maids began in Omaha, Nebraska, in 1979 when Dallen Peterson and his family started a cleaning business built on quality and care. Their idea grew into one of the world’s most trusted home cleaning brands.

The company joined the ServiceMaster family in 1988. This partnership is built on shared values: do what’s right, take care of each other, act quickly, and deliver excellence every time.

Merry Maids arrived in the UK in 1990. Today, we have 44 locations across the country, all offering the same high standards of cleaning and customer care that made us a household name.
