The invention relates to a method for cleaning a surface, such as a floor, making use of a cleaning device (101) comprising a handle (102), a mopping member (104) fixed to an end of the handle and means (107) for dosed dispensing of a cleaning agent, wherein the length of the handle (102), the working width of the mopping member (104) and/or the distribution of the cleaning agent is or are adjusted prior to and/or during cleaning. The invention further relates to a cleaning device (101) for use in this method. Such a cleaning device comprises a handle (102), a mopping member (104) fixed to an end of the handle and means (107) for dosed dispensing of a cleaning agent. The mopping member (104) can be adjustable or exchangeable. In addition or instead, the dispensing means (107), which dispense the cleaning agent in distributed manner in width direction of the mopping member (104), can be adapted to vary the distribution, and the handle (102) can be adjustable in longitudinal direction.
