Yes. The in-home estimate is free.

Usually within 24 to 48 hours, depending on your schedule.

Every home is different. Size matters, and so does how the home is lived in between cleanings: children, pets and guests all change the work. Seeing the home lets us price it fairly and hear which areas matter most to you.

For a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home, recurring cleaning starts at $180 per visit for weekly service, $200 for every two weeks and $220 for monthly. A deep clean starts at $400, and a move-in or move-out clean starts at $500. Your exact price is confirmed at the free in-home estimate.

Every visit covers the same regular checklist. Monthly visits also include fans, vents, chandeliers, baseboards, doors and blinds every time. Weekly service rotates those details through the month, and service every two weeks alternates them from visit to visit.

Cleaning every two weeks starts at $200 for a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home, $240 for a 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom home and $280 for a 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom home. The price calculator covers any size from 1 to 10 bedrooms and bathrooms, and we confirm the exact amount at the free in-home estimate.

Home size and how the home is lived in between visits change the work. Children, pets and frequent guests usually add time. Add-ons like inside cabinets or grout cleaning are priced separately.

Cash, check, Zelle and major credit cards.

Fridge cleaning is $30 to $50. Inside cabinets are $50 to $100. Lanai or porch sweeping and garage sweeping are $30 to $100 each. Washing doors and walls is $50 to $100. Grout cleaning and carpet washing are $50 to $75 per room.

No. Offices and storefronts vary too much, so we price commercial work after a free walkthrough.

Every visit covers the kitchen and bathroom counters, sinks and backsplash, kitchen appliances inside and outside (with a light clean inside the fridge), the outside of the range hood and cabinets, showers, tubs, tile walls, mirrors and toilets, dusting of furniture, decorations and lamp shades, vacuuming of carpets, rugs, chairs and couches, vacuuming and damp mopping of hard floors, the sliding door tracks and inside glass, the front door and entry, and making beds if needed.

On weekly service, some jobs rotate through the month. On the 1st and 3rd visits we clean chandeliers, dust fans and vents, and remove cobwebs. On the 2nd and 4th visits we dust sills and ledges, clean doors, door frames and baseboards, dust blinds and shutters, and wipe switches and outlets. On every-two-weeks service the two groups alternate from one visit to the next.

A deep clean covers everything in a regular visit plus the details that build up over time: chandeliers, fans, vents, cobwebs, window sills and ledges, doors, door frames, baseboards, blinds and shutters. In a two-story home it also covers the stairs, handrails and banisters. A deep clean is the usual first step before regular visits.

Everything in a deep clean, plus a full clean of the fridge, inside and out. In an empty home we also clean the inside of cabinets and drawers in the kitchen, bathrooms and laundry.

Both. The checklist changes a little: in an empty home we clean inside cabinets and drawers, and in a furnished home we dust furniture and vacuum chairs and couches.

The garage and the lanai aren't part of a standard visit. You can add garage sweeping or lanai sweeping, or book our lanai and sliding glass door package.

We dust and wipe lanai furniture, vacuum lanai rugs, dust fans, clean outdoor kitchen countertops, clean the outside of the grill and appliances, and clean the sliding glass door inside and outside. We price it at your estimate.

Yes, except intricate or delicate pieces.

Regular and deep cleans include a light clean inside. For a full inside clean, add fridge cleaning ($30 to $50): we take out the shelves and drawers, wash them, wipe everything down and put it back. Move-in and move-out cleans already include the full fridge clean.

Yes. Kitchen appliances are cleaned inside and outside on every house cleaning.

Yes. We bring all supplies and equipment.

We clean bathroom tile, tubs and showers on every visit. Mold that goes beyond a surface clean needs a licensed mold remediator in Florida, and we don't offer that service.

We clean the inside glass on windows we can reach from the floor as part of a regular cleaning, and we spot-clean the inside of sliding door glass and clean the tracks on every visit. The lanai package cleans the sliding glass door on both sides. We don't wash the outside of home windows. For businesses, window cleaning is quoted as an extra at the walkthrough.

Yes. We apply a grout cleaner and scrub the lines by hand with a grout brush, or with a scrubbing machine on larger floors. It's $50 to $75 per room and can be added to a cleaning visit. We don't seal grout.
