How to Prep Your Home for a Deep Clean
What to Do Before Your Cleaning Team Arrives
You’ve scheduled your deep cleaning. The date is circled on the calendar. Now what?
A little preparation goes a long way in helping us give you the best clean possible. You don’t need to scrub or organize everything. Just a few simple steps help our team focus on what matters most: getting every corner, crevice, and surface back to spotless.
Here is your friendly, no-stress pre-clean game plan.
Clear the Clutter, Not Your Mind
We don’t expect a showroom. Life happens. But clearing countertops, floors, and tables of everyday items helps us move faster and clean deeper. Think dirty dishes, loose mail, bathroom toiletries, and laundry on the floor.
Just fifteen minutes of tidying up means we spend less time navigating and more time scrubbing.
Pro tip: Toss everything that doesn’t belong on the floor into a basket and stash it in a closet. Instant clean slate.
Point Out the Trouble Spots
You know your home better than anyone. That sticky spot by the stove. The shower glass that never looks quite right. The baseboards have seen better days.
When we arrive, take two minutes to walk us through your priorities. We want to know exactly where you want extra attention. No guesswork, just results.
Our deep cleaning service is designed to tackle exactly these areas—from built-up grime to forgotten corners.
Secure the Fragile and Sentimental
We move things to clean behind and beneath them. That’s a good thing. But if you have heirlooms, collectibles, or that pottery project your kid made in third grade, give it a safe spot out of the way.
A quick sweep of valuable or sentimental items gives you peace of mind and allows us the freedom to work efficiently.
Pets Deserve a Relaxing Day Too
We love animals. Truly. But the sound of vacuums and mops can stress even the calmest pup or curious cat.
If possible, give your furry friends a cozy space away from the action, or better yet, a treat-filled adventure outside the home. A stress-free pet means a stress-free clean for everyone.
Make Access Easy
Whether you prefer to be home or grant us access through a key, lockbox, or building security, having a clear plan ahead of time makes your arrival and our start seamless.
We’ll confirm your preferred method before your appointment so there are no morning-of surprises.
Sit Back and Let Us Work
Here’s the best part of your pre-clean checklist: doing absolutely nothing.
Once we arrive, your only job is to relax, step out, or tackle that to-do list you’ve been putting off. We’ll handle the dust, the grime, and the hard-to-reach places. You get back a home that feels brand new.
