I try to clean every room in the house once a week.  This includes dusting, vacuuming, and mopping.  I'm getting tired just thinking about it!

I try to clean once a week. My job is hectic so sometimes I actually gotta pay someone to come in and clean.

I used to be such a perfectionist when it came to the cleanliness of my house.....cleaned it everyday. Now, It's lucky if it gets it once a week. I always clean up the clutter everyday, but only deep clean about once every 2 weeks or so. It's just me living here and I've always been pretty organized and clean up after myself anyway so the cleaning isn't that frequently needed. The older I get, the more I realize that a house doesn't need cleaning as often as some people think. My house is quite new so everything is pretty pristine still. It's also much smaller than my last one and that helps. A large house is just wasted space come cleaning day IMHO. It seems older homes need more cleaning then newer ones. The one thing I can't stand is leaving dishes until the next day. Nothing is more irritating than to get up in the morning with dirty dishes in the sink.....yuck

With all the modern products out there (automatic toilet bowl cleaner, etc.), it cuts down on a lot of extra scrubbing. I've figured out all the "preventative" measures to cut down on cleaning. House cleaning is not my favorite thing to do.

Not enough.  Lucky to get around to it once every few weeks.

I do my house once a week.  I found out that you have to do all your floors the same day.  Otherwise you and everyone else will track dirt from the dirty area to the clean area.

I always like a clean house, plus it must smell nice.  I never let my house get to where I have to do heavy cleaning at any time. I have always done that so that it doesnt become an all day chore.

Often enough to suit myself. If you don't like it, don't come over.

I as well as my husband and 2 kids clean the house. Everyone has their part and no one is excused from keeping the place we all live in clean. Husband and I both work FT and kids (9 and 16) are in school, there's no excuse for one to do more than the other. Everyday the minimum we do is make sure the bathrooms & kitchens are tidy, backpacks ready to go the next day and junk mail is thrown out. Those are the 2 places I can't stand to see messy. Kitchen counters are wiped down, dishes are done, table cleaned up etc... Bathrooms are wiped down and tidied. All of this can be done in less than 10 minutes if it's done daily. Bedrooms, laundry, living room, play room, etc.. are done about once a week. Sometimes I get lazy and do nothing and sometimes I'm like a mad woman cleaning & either throwing everything out or donating a ton of stuff.

I like to pick up after myself and my son daily but Saturdays are usually my days to clean every room.... dusting, vacuuming, etc. not to mention laundry at least 3 times a week.
