Argyle house cleaning and sales tax
The town's community page highlights Harvest and Canyon Falls (Our Community). Once you own the home, a cleaning company's charge is taxable, at 6.25% state tax plus up to 2% local (Comptroller). The service should add any local city, county or special district tax on the amount billed. The Comptroller's guide also exempts a self-employed housekeeper who is an employee of your household, not someone sent by a maid service (Comptroller guide).
Checking an Argyle house cleaning service
Some households search names on the DPS public conviction database, which covers Class B misdemeanors and up (DPS search). HomeGuide puts standard cleaning of a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home at $135 to $180 and move-out cleaning at $180 to $300 (national, April 2024; cleaning prices). If a seller signs you up at your door for services over $25, Texas law generally lets you cancel by midnight of the third business day; that rule covers home-solicited sales, not cleaning you book online or by phone (Business & Commerce Code Ch. 601). Complaints about a cleaning business can go to the Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division, where they become public.
See our house cleaning page and the Argyle hub. If you are selling first, Argyle realtors can help you time move-out cleaning.
