What We Offer

2 man hours of Standard House Cleaning Service

This service is designed for the regular upkeep and maintenance of your home to keep it looking fresh and tidy. It covers the essential cleaning tasks in common areas. "2 man-hours" means you get a total of two hours of labor, which could be one cleaner for two hours or two cleaners for one hour, ensuring an efficient and focused clean.

• Includes tasks like:
• Dusting all accessible surfaces, furniture, and fixtures
• Wiping down countertops and kitchen surfaces
• Cleaning the exterior of appliances
• Cleaning and sanitizing sinks, toilets, and mirrors in bathrooms
• Vacuuming carpets and mopping hard floors
• Emptying trash bins

Best for: Weekly or bi-weekly maintenance, a quick touch-up before guests arrive, or for busy individuals who need help staying on top of regular chores.

2 man hours of Deep Cleaning Service

This is a more intensive and detailed service that tackles the built-up dirt, grime, and soap scum that a standard clean doesn't address. It’s perfect for a seasonal refresh or preparing for a special event. Within the 2 man-hour timeframe, this service can be focused on specific high-traffic or problem areas (like the kitchen and bathrooms).

• Includes all tasks from Standard Cleaning, plus:
• Scrubbing tile grout and stovetops
• Detail cleaning of appliance exteriors and microwave interiors
• Wiping down baseboards, door frames, and light switches
• Cleaning window sills and ledges
• More thorough scrubbing of tubs, showers, and sinks to remove buildup

Best for: A "spring clean," moving in or out of a home, post-renovation cleanup, or for homes that haven't been professionally cleaned in a while.

2 man hours of Deep Cleaning and House Organization

This is the ultimate package for transforming a specific area of your home. It combines the thoroughness of a deep clean with the functional benefits of decluttering and organization. In a 2 man-hour session, our team can tackle a contained project, like a pantry, a walk-in closet, or cluttered kitchen countertops, leaving the space both spotless and orderly.

• Includes all tasks from Deep Cleaning, with an added focus on:
• Decluttering surfaces and designated spaces
• Sorting items into categories (keep, donate, discard)
• Creating logical and sustainable organization systems
• Neatly arranging items in closets, cabinets, or on shelves

Best for: Overcoming a cluttered space, organizing a pantry or closet, resetting a chaotic home office, or making a room more functional and stress-free.
