Hear from Our Customers
You’re not looking for someone to push dirt around. You need house cleaners who understand what “clean” actually means—the baseboards, the ceiling fans, the spots most people skip.
When your home is handled by vetted professionals who’ve been doing this for over a decade, you stop worrying about whether it’s done right. You walk in after work and it smells fresh. The kitchen counters aren’t just wiped—they’re sanitized. The bathroom doesn’t have that film on the mirror or toothpaste in the sink.
And because we use eco-friendly products that are safe for your family, you’re not opening windows for hours afterward trying to air out chemical smells. Your kids can play on the floor. Your pets aren’t sneezing. You’re just living in a space that feels good again.
That’s what residential cleaning should do. Free up your time, meet your standards, and let you focus on what actually matters to you.
We’ve been serving Mount Auburn and surrounding Massachusetts communities since 2013. We’re a family-run business, which means our name is attached to every job we do. That matters when you’re letting someone into your home.
We’re insured and bonded, so you’re covered if anything ever goes wrong. Our team members are vetted professionals—not random contractors working under the table. And we’ve built our reputation on being the house cleaners people call back, year after year.
Mount Auburn families have specific needs. Older homes with detailed woodwork. Busy households where both parents work. Retirees who want help maintaining their space without harsh chemicals. We’ve seen it all, and we adjust our approach based on what your home actually needs—not a one-size-fits-all checklist.
First, we come out and give you a free estimate. No pressure, no upselling—we walk through your home, ask what’s important to you, and give you a clear price based on square footage and the level of cleaning you need.
Once you’re ready to schedule, we set up a time that works for your routine. We show up on time with our own supplies and equipment. Everything we use is eco-friendly and safe for kids, pets, and anyone with allergies or sensitivities.
Our team starts with room-specific detailing. Kitchens get deep attention—counters, appliances, sinks, floors. Bathrooms are sanitized completely, not just surface-wiped. Living areas are dusted, vacuumed, and treated for allergen reduction if that’s part of your plan. We don’t rush. We don’t skip steps.
Before we leave, we do a walkthrough to make sure everything meets our standard. If something’s not right, we handle it then—not after you call us back. And if you need ongoing service, we’ll set up a schedule that keeps your home consistently clean without you having to think about it.

Every residential cleaning covers the basics: dusting, vacuuming, mopping, surface sanitizing. But we also handle the details most house cleaners ignore. Baseboards. Light fixtures. Window sills. Door frames. The stuff that makes a home feel truly clean, not just tidied up.
If you need room-specific detailing, we go deeper. Kitchens get appliance cleaning, cabinet fronts wiped down, and grout scrubbed. Bathrooms get full sanitization—toilets, tubs, tile, mirrors, fixtures. We also offer allergen reduction cleaning for families dealing with dust, pet dander, or seasonal sensitivities.
Mount Auburn homes vary widely in age and layout, so we adjust our methods. Older homes with hardwood floors get treated differently than newer builds with tile and carpet. If you’re preparing for holiday hosting or need help with residential organizing before a big event, we handle that too.
And because we’re local, we understand what Mount Auburn households deal with—seasonal pollen, humidity in the summer, tracked-in snow and salt in the winter. We clean with those conditions in mind, not some generic approach that works everywhere and nowhere.
Most professional house cleaners in Mount Auburn charge between $30 and $50 per hour, depending on the size of your home and the level of cleaning you need. A typical four-hour residential cleaning runs around $180, but that varies based on square footage, number of rooms, and whether you’re looking for basic maintenance or deep cleaning.
We give free estimates because every home is different. A 1,200-square-foot ranch with two bathrooms costs less than a 2,500-square-foot colonial with four bathrooms and a finished basement. We don’t guess over the phone—we come out, look at what you need, and give you an accurate price.
If you’re comparing prices, make sure you’re comparing the same thing. Some house cleaners charge less but skip details, use harsh chemicals, or aren’t insured. You’re not just paying for time—you’re paying for vetted professionals, eco-friendly products, and the peace of mind that comes with a bonded, insured company.
Yes. Everything we use is eco-friendly and non-toxic. That means no harsh fumes, no chemical residue on surfaces, and no worry about your kids or pets being in the house right after we clean.
A lot of traditional cleaning products contain ingredients that can irritate skin, trigger allergies, or cause respiratory issues—especially in younger children or pets who spend time on the floor. We switched to plant-based, biodegradable products years ago because our clients kept asking for safer options.
These products still disinfect and sanitize effectively. You’re not sacrificing cleanliness for safety. Your counters, bathrooms, and floors are just as clean—they just don’t smell like a chemical factory afterward. And if you have specific sensitivities or preferences, let us know during the estimate. We can adjust our product selection to fit your household.
No. Most of our clients aren’t home when we clean. They give us access—either by leaving a key, providing a garage code, or using a lockbox—and we handle everything while they’re at work or running errands.
We’re insured and bonded, and our team members are vetted professionals. You’re not letting strangers into your home—you’re working with a company that’s been serving Mount Auburn families for over a decade. We take that trust seriously.
If you prefer to be home the first time so you can show us around and explain what’s important to you, that’s fine too. After that, most people find it easier to just let us do our thing. You come home to a clean house without having to manage the process or make small talk while we’re working.
It depends on your household. Busy families with kids and pets usually benefit from weekly or bi-weekly cleaning. If it’s just you or a couple with no pets, every three to four weeks might be enough to stay on top of dust, bathrooms, and floors.
Weekly cleaning keeps your home consistently clean with less effort. Bi-weekly is the most common schedule—it prevents buildup without feeling excessive. Monthly cleaning works if you’re already maintaining things yourself and just need help with the deeper tasks.
We also do one-time deep cleans for people preparing for events, moving in or out, or just trying to reset after a busy season. There’s no contract requirement. Some clients start with a deep clean and then move to a regular schedule. Others call us as needed. We’re flexible because your life isn’t static—your cleaning schedule shouldn’t be either.
Basic cleaning covers the regular maintenance tasks: vacuuming, mopping, dusting surfaces, cleaning bathrooms and kitchens, emptying trash. It’s what most people need on a recurring basis to keep their home presentable and sanitary.
Deep cleaning goes further. We move furniture to vacuum underneath. We scrub grout and tile. We clean inside appliances like ovens and refrigerators. We wipe down baseboards, door frames, light fixtures, and ceiling fans. We detail areas that don’t get touched during regular maintenance.
Most people start with a deep clean to get their home to a baseline level, then switch to basic cleaning for ongoing maintenance. If you haven’t had professional house cleaners in a while—or ever—a deep clean makes sense. It takes longer and costs more upfront, but it resets your home so that regular cleaning actually keeps it clean instead of just slowing down the mess.
Yes. We bring everything we need—eco-friendly cleaning products, microfiber cloths, mops, vacuums, and any specialty tools for specific tasks. You don’t need to stock supplies or worry about running out of anything.
Our equipment is commercial-grade and well-maintained. We use HEPA-filter vacuums that trap allergens instead of redistributing them into the air. Our mops and cloths are cleaned and sanitized between jobs so we’re not cross-contaminating homes.
If you have specific products you want us to use—maybe you already buy a certain brand or have a preference for a particular cleaner—we can work with that. Just let us know during the estimate. But in most cases, clients prefer that we handle it all. One less thing for you to think about.
