Despite the increase in demand, the response rate from professionals was 64%, 4 percentage points lower than the previous month.

Even so, this figure represents a six-point increase compared to January last year.

House leaning continues to lead demand, accounting for 57% of requests. This is followed by flat cleaning (14%) and deep cleaning (10%). Other services, such as window cleaning (5%), general cleaning (4%) and sofa cleaning (3%), recorded lower demand.

The platform’s data also indicates a general increase in cleaning service prices between 2025 and 2026. On average, the hourly rate increased by €1 to €12.

Braga and Guarda were the districts with the highest increases, rising by three euros. In Braga, the average price reached €15 per hour, while in Guarda it rose to €12 per hour. Aveiro and Castelo Branco recorded increases of €2, bringing the rate to €12 per hour.

According to Fixando, the price rise is more evident in regions with higher demand.

Large urban centres continue to account for the majority of applications. Lisbon leads the way in terms of demand, with 35%, followed by Porto (18%) and Setúbal (12%). In terms of response rates, Lisbon performs best (53%), followed by Setúbal (52%) and Faro (47%). In contrast, inland districts such as Vila Real, Beja and Portalegre recorded the lowest rates.

In the first months of 2026, Lisbon once again accounted for the largest share of requests (33%), followed by Porto (24%) and Setúbal (9%).

However, the districts with the best response rates were Braga and Faro, both with 88%. Lisbon recorded 74% and Setúbal 68%, while Guarda, Portalegre, Vila Real and Viana do Castelo did not receive any responses.

Alice Nunes, Director of New Business at Fixando, says that the market is facing “an increase in demand and prices, but also a shortage of professionals in some areas of the country”. She stresses the importance of more customer planning and adding more specialists to the platform, ensuring the company is working to balance supply and demand.
