1. We both do, but primarily me
2. I try to do a room a day(meaning dust, sweep extra thoroughly, mop, clean bathroom totally if that room) plus "maintenance" cleaning on the other rooms. We have wall to wall white marble tile, so we sweep the entire house daily, I try to wipe down the toilets and sinks every day with clorox wipes, etc.
3. rarely.
4. Once every 2-3 months, I'll move all the furniture, etc

1.Who cleans your home? You or your SO? house keeper? I clean it with the help of the kids and SO from time to time.
2. How many hours does it take you? Around an hour a day.
3. Do you do it all in one day? No, I would go crazy. I have a routine that sees each room cleaned from top to bottom several times a week though.
4. How often do you deep clean your home? Once a week.

1.Who cleans your home? You or your SO? house keeper? I do most of the cleaning, but DH helps. His opinion of clean is very different from mine.
2. How many hours does it take you? No idea. I clean in patches, doing what needs to be done. I'm sure it'd take us a few hours to clean if we did it all at once.
3. Do you do it all in one day? No, I rarely have time for that.
4. How often do you deep clean your home? Not often enough. It's always dusted, vacuumed, floors cleaned, etc., but I don't do things like move the furniture each week or dust the top of door frames. Our house has been in disarray for 2-3 months since we started our project. I dust every other day, but it still looks horrible.

1.Who cleans your home? You or your SO? house keeper? ME
2. How many hours does it take you? I try to give it about a hour or so a day - but all together it would proabbly take 8 hours non stop (even without breaks for meals and whatnot).
3. Do you do it all in one day? I try not to. If I have company coming over I will do it all in one or two days
4. How often do you deep clean your home? I have to move furniture at least once a month to find all the toys that have disappeared (usually under the couch) So I vacuum and whatnot then. Otherwise, probably once a year we do some spring cleaning - throw out junk, give to Goodwill, etc.

1.Who cleans your home? You or your SO? house keeper? I guess I'll be the black sheep here We have a house keeper (cleaning lady) come once a month. It sounds spoiled but we both work a lot. No time or too tired.
2. How many hours does it take you? Before we hired someone, it'd take me 6 hours to clean if I did it all at once. My back would hurt for 2 days after.
3. Do you do it all in one day? The cleaning lady does it all in one shot, but I do maintenance cleaning in between.
4. How often do you deep clean your home? Once a month now. Or if we're having company, more often. DH's parents were recently over & I cleaned 2 days before the cleaning lady & a day after. His parents are no joke so I had to make sure everything was perfect I know his Mom was checking closets & cabinets!

1.Who cleans your home? You or your SO? house keeper? Mostly me
2. How many hours does it take you? I'm never completely done. I have a 2 year old and a golden retriever- it's a never ending battle.
3. Do you do it all in one day? I wish. I do it every day- but could never get it done all in one day
4. How often do you deep clean your home? usually once every two or three months. I used to be kind of obsessive about having things neat and tidy and perfect, but since my son born, and especially since he's starting walking and becoming more active, I've taken the attitude like I want to spend that time playing rather than cleaning, and I also don't want to make him or his friends feel like they can't have fun in my house because I don't like messes. So I'm learning to get over it...although I do go on the occasional cleaning spree still
