How often should San Francisco homeowners get house cleaning?
Given San Francisco's karl the fog: persistent summer fog from the pacific keeps temperatures at 55–65°f on the west side, most homeowners benefit from house cleaning at least once a year. Year-round fog moisture causing wood rot and paint peeling on west-facing Victorians often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in San Francisco most need house cleaning?
Victorian Painted Ladies and Edwardian flats (most common exterior) and Spanish colonial and stucco in the Sunset and Richmond districts are the most common home types in San Francisco and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
Do I need to be home during cleaning?
No. Most customers provide a key or door code. Our cleaners are background-checked and insured. Many people prefer to be out during cleaning.
What's included in a standard cleaning?

How do I prepare for a cleaning visit?
Tidying up before the cleaners arrive (picking up clutter, clearing counters) helps them focus on actual cleaning rather than organizing. Secure pets and ensure access.
