Homejoy secures $38M to expand its on-demand home cleaning service

Silicon Valley has always sought make your household duties simpler with technology, but there’s only so much that robotic vacuums and ultrafast washing machines can do. Anything outside of floor cleaning generally requires a bit of manual labor – labor you don’t always have the time or energy to perform yourself.

That’s where Homejoy comes in. In a nutshell, the burgeoning San Francisco-based startup is basically a uber-simple maid service. Think MerryMaids or HipsterMaid but with easier web-based booking. To schedule a cleaning appointment, all you do is hop on their ridiculously simple site, enter in a few details about your house and what areas you need cleaned, and the date/time you want it to happen. Then, for $20 an hour, a professional cleaner stops by to take care of the dirty work.

Each cleaner is personally selected for a client’s needs, and all of them are bonded and insured, undergo background checks and in-person interviews, and must receive good reviews to stay on-staff. The company currently has more than 1,000 full-time employees, and is already up and running in 31 cities in the US and Canada.
