Housework I have to clean my flat. I do the housework once a week, every weeks, entierely in the all rooms. It's not an activity that I find pleasant : it's repetitive, long and distateful. But, when it finished, it's very satisfying. The flat is clean, smell good, seems bigger and it is more comfortable to live there.

Super cute story! OK, I will try to help without changing the pretty voice of the story. 

"I do the housework once a week, every week, entirely, in all the rooms."

The use of once a week implies that you clean every week (not weeks) but using every week (no "s") places emphasis on the drudgery of the task. Some people may alter the end of the sentence (entirely, in all the rooms) but I like it - again it's emphatic.

: vs ; - you want to use ; here because you are describing why the activity is unpleasant and the following part includes the use of commas. 

"But when it is finished, it's very satisfying."

You could also go with "you" finishing "it" (the cleaning). Finishing "it" being satisfying is ok here since you go on to explain why "it" is satisfying. 

"The flat is clean, (it) smells good, seems bigger and it is more comfortable to live in."

The "it" is optional. Leaving it out is what you will hear in everyday speech. Comfortable to live there is possible - my American ear prefers the sound of "comfortable to live in." You live "in" your apartment.
