• Scope: Residential cleaning typically involves cleaning private residences and may include tasks such as dusting, vacuuming, mopping and cleaning bathrooms and kitchens. Residential services are tailored to the customers requests. Commercial cleaning involves cleaning business facilities such as offices, retail spaces and warehouses. This can include more extensive tasks like carpet cleaning, floor maintenance and specialized cleaning for restrooms and break areas.
• Frequency and timing: House cleaning is usually scheduled on a regular basis such as weekly, bi-weekly or monthly on a one time deep cleaning basis. Commercial cleaning is often preformed outside of regular business hours like evenings or weekends to avoid disrupting operations. Commercial cleaning can be done daily, weekly or monthly depending on the business needs. 
• Products: House cleaning uses regular household cleaning products and equipment suitable for residential spaces. Commercial cleaning may utilize industrial cleaning products and advanced equipment to handle larger spaces and tougher cleaning challenges. 
• Professional training: House cleaning typically requires less formal training and many cleaners learn on the job. Commercial cleaning often requires staff to be trained in using specialized equipment and safety procedures. 
• Regulations and Standards: House cleaning is generally less regulated while commercial cleaning may need to adhere to specific health and safety regulations especially in sectors such healthcare and food service.
