House Cleaning FAQ for Wilmington Homeowners

How often should Wilmington homeowners get house cleaning?
Given Wilmington's cold winters averaging 32°f with 21 inches of snowfall, most homeowners benefit from house cleaning at least once a year. Freeze-thaw brick and mortar damage (Dec–March) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Wilmington most need house cleaning?
Historic brick row houses in downtown Wilmington and Colonial and Cape Cod homes throughout New Castle County are the most common home types in Wilmington 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?
Standard cleaning covers dusting all surfaces, vacuuming and mopping floors, cleaning bathrooms (toilets, sinks, showers, mirrors), cleaning the kitchen (counters, appliances exterior, sink), and emptying trash. Inside ovens, fridges, and windows are usually add-ons.
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.
Are your products safe for children and pets?
Yes. We offer green cleaning options using non-toxic, eco-friendly products. Please let us know about any allergies or sensitivities when booking.
