The 45-point checklist behind every clean.

“Professional” should mean a documented standard, not a vague promise. Here is the exact room-by-room checklist your cleaner works through on every standard visit — published in full, so you know precisely what you’re paying for before we ever knock on the door.

  • $2M insured
  • Background-checked cleaners
  • Same cleaner every visit
  • Satisfaction guarantee
  • No contracts

Why we publish it

A checklist you can hold us to

Most cleaning companies keep their process behind a quote call. We put ours in writing for three reasons.

Same standard, every time

Your dedicated cleaner follows the same checklist on every visit, so the clean is consistent — not “however we felt that day.”

It makes the guarantee real

If something on this list isn’t right, report it within 24 hours and we re-clean it free. A written standard is what makes that promise meaningful.

No surprises at the door

You see the scope and the price up front. What’s a standard step and what’s an add-on is spelled out — no upsells sprung on you mid-clean.

Room by room

What every standard clean covers

This is our standard (recurring) clean. Deep cleans and move-in/out cleans add more — baseboards, inside appliances, inside cabinets — on top of everything here.

Every bathroom

Top to bottom, inside to outside — the room guests judge first.

  • Shower and tub walls scrubbed, soap scum and water spots removed
  • Showerhead and faucets wiped to a shine, drains cleared of visible hair
  • Glass door or curtain wiped on both sides
  • Toilet cleaned inside and out — bowl, seat, lid, tank, base, and behind
  • Sink and countertop cleared, wiped, and items returned in order
  • Behind the faucet wiped — the spot most cleaners skip
  • Mirror cleaned streak-free
  • Light switches, door handles, and towel bars wiped
  • Trash emptied and the bag replaced
  • Floor swept and mopped, into the corners and behind the toilet

Kitchen

Where the home really gets used — degreased, cleared, and reset.

  • Countertops cleared, wiped, and every item set back in place
  • Backsplash wiped above the counter
  • Sink scrubbed and the faucet polished, behind the faucet included
  • Stovetop degreased; removable knobs wiped
  • Oven, microwave, refrigerator, and dishwasher fronts wiped (exteriors)
  • Cabinet fronts and handles wiped of smudges
  • Light switches and door handles wiped
  • Floor swept and mopped — under the table and into the corners
  • Trash emptied and the bag replaced

Living areas

Dust lifted, not just moved — surface by surface.

  • Coffee tables, consoles, shelves, and windowsills dusted
  • Picture frames and décor dusted with care
  • Couch cushions straightened; visible crumbs and debris removed
  • TV screen wiped gently with a microfiber cloth
  • Light switches and door handles wiped
  • Floors vacuumed — including corners and behind doors
  • Hard floors mopped

Every bedroom

A room that feels rested the moment you walk in.

  • Beds made and pillows straightened
  • Nightstands, dressers, and windowsills dusted
  • Lamps, mirrors, and frames dusted
  • Floors vacuumed, including under the bed where reachable
  • Hard floors mopped
  • Light switches and door handles wiped
  • Trash emptied

Entry, hallways & stairs

The high-traffic paths that show wear the fastest.

  • Entry console and mirror wiped
  • Hallway surfaces dusted
  • Stairs vacuumed step by step, into the corners
  • Railings wiped
  • Hard floors mopped throughout

The finishing pass

A final walkthrough before we lock up — the part that earns the guarantee.

  • Every room re-checked against its own room list
  • Corners, behind the toilet, and behind faucets double-checked
  • Baseboards checked for visible dust
  • Fingerprints cleared from switches and handles
  • Supplies packed up — nothing left behind
  • Trash taken out to the outdoor bin
  • Lights off, doors and windows secured, home locked

That’s 45 checks on every standard visit. Need inside the oven, inside the fridge, interior windows, or laundry? Those are clearly priced add-ons you can choose at booking — see the full price list.
