Maid Service - The Greens

I am moving into a new apartment in The Greens and I am looking for a maid service to visit once a week. So far the agencies I have called have a minimum of 4 hours for the area and since I only have a 1 bed apartment I am firstly not sure how they will manage to spread my apartment over 4 hours and secondly I don't want to pay for her to sit and watch TV for the remaining 2 hours.
Does anyone know a maid service that will do 2 hours?

I would be careful hiring part time maids I live in the Greens and our building was raided a few weeks ago by the municipality, a couple of maids were taken away. Not only will they be deported but their sponsor will incur a 50k fine in the bargain. I would not trust anyone who isn't sponsored by me or an agency. [b'>What if they committed a crime i.e stole from you. You do know that if you went to the police you would be in trouble too [/b'>for hiring them illegally And they know this !! The maximum fine was recently doubled, btw... We were constantly getting notes pushed under our doors and residents were getting fed up of it, they only got in to post them by waiting and following residents in as security turn them away

hi i have a part time maid with her own visa come daily. she is good and not charge expensive like in the maid company.if you like can contact me in this forum couse right now she has plenty time. This arrangement is illegal unfortunately and if she was caught working in your home by the authorities both you and she would be liable for HUGE fines (upwards of 50k). The only legal way to have a maid is either to sponsor them yourself or via an agency. Sorry to share this news but it is better to be on the right side of the law here.

Most companies have a minimum of 4 hour service (2 ladies for 2 hours), so what about asking them to do the laundry and ironing or setting specific cleaning tasks such as cleaning the oven, cleaning the inside of the cupboards, washing the shower curtain, cleaning the outside of the windows from the balcony etc....
