Cleaning Rota Generator
Make a fair weekly cleaning rota for your shared house in under a minute. Add housemates, pick chores, print it for the fridge — done.
What a good cleaning rota does
A cleaning rota is the difference between "we'll figure it out" (translation: nothing gets done) and a household that stays liveable. The rota names who does what, when — so nobody has to ask, remind, or argue.
Three rules of a working rota
- Rotate the worst chores. Toilet, bin, shower — never the same person two weeks running.
- Balance by effort, not count. Five wipe-downs aren't equal to one bathroom deep-clean.
- Make it visible. If it's not on the fridge, it doesn't exist.
