Cleaning Service Plans

Standard Cleanings

Below, you can see the items our teams will take care of on every visit. Of course, we can customize a cleaning routine for your home to fit your exact needs. No matter what, our teams will focus on getting your home into the condition you love as safely and efficiently as possible.

Deep Cleanings

Deep cleanings are generally performed when we do “one-time” cleanings or begin new monthly, bi-weekly, or weekly cleaning services. They include all items in the “standard cleaning” list, plus the items on the list below. If your home is already tidy and well maintained or you’re moving from a different cleaning service, sometimes we can omit the “deep cleaning.”

Move In/Out Cleanings

The most popular plan when moving in or moving out, open house/showing or post construction/renovation cleaning.

Spring/Fall Cleanings

There is nothing more satisfying than giving your home some fresh new energy. Go beyond the weekly dusting, sweeping and mopping to get your home deep-cleaned in just one day. We recommend this detail/deep rotating cleaning once every 6 months.

How To Prepare For Your Home Cleaning Service

Please ensure there is running water & electricity within the home.

Please secure all pets, we love them but they don’t always love us. 😉

Please identify & inform your cleaner of any broken or damaged items prior to the start of the visit.

Please allow your cleaner to tour the home & assess the condition upon arrival.

Please move any heavy objects or furniture that you would like us to clean around or under.

Please remove all clutter; toys, dishes, laundry or excess trash within the home.

Please leave out any labeled specialty products you would prefer us to use: Granite, Shower Glass or Floors.

Please allow up to 1 hour of your appointment time for your house cleaner to arrive.

Please note that there is a $50 same-day cancellation fee for any cancelled appointments less than 24 hours from scheduled date of service.

Please note that we cannot guarantee a full clean of any areas not prepared for cleaning & may require a Deep Clean Fee.

What We Do Not Clean

We do go the whole nine yards when it comes to making your space sparkling clean. There are however a few things outside of our scope:

Move heavy furniture (including beds, chest, drawers, etc).

Under furniture/sofas (only what the vacuum can reach).

Dishes (dishes will be placed inside the dishwasher if it is empty, but we do not hand wash).

Scrubbing of painted walls.

Laundry or fold/hang any clothes (towels and bed sheets may be washed and placed in dryer).

We do not climb higher than a 2 step ladder. We use extension duster to reach higher items as much as possible.

We do not remove books from bookshelves.

Wet wiping of light bulbs.

Chandeliers.

Outside areas typically handled by window cleaning or power washing crews.

For health reasons, we will not clean blood, feces, vomit or urine from neither humans or animals.

We cannot guarantee complete pet odor removal.

Please allow for some dust resettlement after we leave, we try to limit the dust in the air but cannot prevent this entirely.

Also not included are items that we don’t offer for one of a few different reasons: safety, cross-contamination, different equipment/chemicals required, or potential for damage.
