How to Prepare Your Home Before a Professional Deep Clean
A short prep routine that helps your cleaning team spend the visit on detail work rather than tidying.
Clear the flat surfaces you want cleaned
Counters, nightstands, and desks clean far better when they are clear. Gathering loose items into a basket takes a few minutes and gives the team full access to the surfaces you actually care about.
Deal with dishes, laundry, and floors
- Run or empty the dishwasher so the sink is free
- Put laundry in a hamper so floors are reachable
- Pick up toys, cords, and shoes from walkways
Tell us about the details that matter
Every home has a few things that make or break the result: a shower door that always looks cloudy, a stovetop that needs extra attention, a surface that needs a specific product. Share those notes when you book so they are planned into the visit.
Plan access, parking, and pets
In Seattle, parking is often the biggest scheduling variable. Let us know about permit zones, garage codes, buzzer numbers, or a loading area with a time limit. If pets will be home, tell us where they will be and whether any rooms should stay closed.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be home during the clean?
No. Many clients provide entry instructions and go about their day. If you prefer to be home, that is fine too.
Should I clean before the cleaners arrive?
No cleaning needed, just light tidying. Clear surfaces let the team spend the visit on detailed work.
