Deep Cleaning Services

Regular cleaning keeps a home from sliding backwards: surfaces wiped, floors vacuumed and mopped, bathrooms and kitchen kept sanitary. It is maintenance, and it is quoted accordingly.

Deep cleaning resets the baseline. We pull the range out and clean the wall behind it. We take the covers off the vents. We scrub grout instead of mopping over it, and we clear window tracks rather than wiping their edges. It takes several times longer than a maintenance visit, which is exactly why it is not something you need every month.

Four things do the damage here, and each of them needs a different answer. Salt air leaves a film on windows, sliders, screens and metal fixtures that smears if you take it on dry. Blown sand works into grout lines, carpet fibers, stair treads and door tracks, and because it is abrasive it keeps working on the finish underneath. Humidity and mild winters let mildew start in shower grout, window tracks, under-sink cabinets, laundry rooms and the back of closed closets. And a property sitting empty through a damp stretch gets all three without anyone noticing.

So our deep clean puts the extra hours where the coast puts the damage: bathroom tile and grout, glass and screens, window and door tracks, entryways and stairwells, under-sink cabinets and closet corners. If we find something past the point where cleaning products help -- grout that needs resealing, a seal that has failed, mildew behind a fixture -- we tell you plainly instead of painting over it.

Rental properties on this coast are empty far more of the year than they are occupied. The season builds toward summer and bottoms out in the middle of winter, which leaves a long stretch where the unit sits closed with the humidity working on it.

That makes two moments worth booking. One is the wind-down after the season, when a property has taken months of back-to-back guests and needs everything a turn never has time for. The other is the open-up before it starts again, or before an owner comes down for a stay, when a place that has been shut for months needs air, glass, grout and every soft surface dealt with before anyone walks in. Both are deep cleans, not turnovers, and both are cheaper than what the damp does if nobody does them.
