Hiring a male domestic helper: what to know.
What a male domestic helper does
A male domestic helper supports households with general housework and heavier tasks agreed in advance, such as moving furniture for cleaning, managing household supplies, car washing or assisting an elderly male family member with daily routines.
Planning the role
List the tasks, hours and whether the role is daytime or live-in. Hazardous work, such as cleaning exterior windows at height or electrical repairs, is outside the role.
Fees and salary
Maidvy's Daytime Plan is ₹15,000 + 18% GST = ₹17,700, with up to 2 replacements during the active plan. Live-in helpers use the 24×7 Live-In Plan (₹25,000 + 18% GST = ₹29,500). The worker's monthly salary is separate from the agency fee. It is agreed directly between your family and the worker based on experience, duties, hours, city and mutual agreement, and is paid directly to the worker.
Planning duties
List the regular tasks, heavier work and any support for an elderly male family member. Keep hazardous tasks, such as working at height or electrical repairs, outside the role.
How hiring works
Share your requirement through Book Now, a callback or WhatsApp; confirm with the ₹5,900 booking advance (₹5,000 + GST), which is adjusted against your plan fee; review matched profiles verified as applicable; interview shortlisted candidates by audio or video; finalise and pay the balance as per the booking terms; then Maidvy coordinates joining, and a Relationship Manager supports you during the active plan. Deployment generally takes 2 to 15 working days and is not guaranteed.
Homes that often prefer a male helper
Large homes with heavier upkeep, families with an elderly father or grandfather who prefers male assistance, and households needing help with car washing, terrace or storage areas often choose a male helper.
Tasks to keep outside the role
Electrical repairs, gas fittings, work at height or on ladders without safety support, and driving are specialised tasks and should not be added to a domestic helper's duties.
A typical day, as an example
Sweeping and mopping, washing the car, cleaning balconies or terraces, moving and arranging heavier items, helping an elderly family member walk or bathe if agreed, utensils and simple errands within the home. Your list will differ; write it down.
Questions to ask in the interview
Ask about previous homes, which heavier tasks he has done, any experience supporting an elderly person, and his expectations about breaks, leave and living arrangements if live-in.
Total cost of a male domestic helper
Plan for the agency plan fee (₹17,700 daytime or ₹29,500 live-in, incl. GST), the helper's salary agreed with you, and for live-in help, meals and a private space.
