First Time Clean
First Time Clean and deep cleaning in Wexford and Greater Pittsburgh
The detailed clean for homes new to us, or any home that has not had a professional clean in the last month. Baseboards, door frames, sills and under the furniture, room by room.
When you need one
Who needs a First Time Clean
- Your home has not had a professional clean in the last month
- You are starting a recurring schedule with us
- You want a one-time reset before guests, a holiday or a sale
Without it, a home that has gone more than a month between professional cleans cannot be brought to our standard in a regular visit. It is added in the Extras step when you book.
A First Time Clean typically takes 3 to 5 hours, depending on the size and condition of your home.
