Cleaning Services in Portland
Portland is a city of old houses. The close-in neighborhoods — Laurelhurst, Irvington, Alameda, Sellwood-Moreland, Mount Tabor, Hawthorne — are full of Craftsman bungalows and Old Portland four-squares built before 1930, with the original woodwork, tile, and built-ins that make them beautiful and make them work to keep clean. Out toward the West Hills you get larger homes on wooded lots; across the east side you get mid-century ranches and newer infill. We clean all of it. Older homes reward a real deep clean up front — baseboards, vents, window tracks, the grout that's been there since the Truman administration — and then an honest recurring rhythm keeps them that way. Most of our Portland clients are busy households who'd rather spend a Saturday on the river or at the farmers market than scrubbing. Every cleaner who comes to your door is a background-checked W-2 employee, bonded and insured, and you'll know who's coming before they arrive.
Our Services in Portland
Recurring Cleaning
Weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly visits. Same cleaner whenever possible — because the person who knows your home cleans it better than someone new every time.
Deep Cleaning
Baseboards, vents, behind appliances, ceiling fans, light fixtures. The reset before the routine. Required for new recurring clients — we need to know what we're starting with.
Move In/Out Cleaning
Every cabinet drawer. Every appliance interior. Every closet shelf. The deepest scope we offer — for the day before you hand over the keys, or the day before you take them.
Post-Construction Cleaning
Renovations, additions, new builds. Drywall dust gets into every vent and behind every fixture — we get it out, so you can move in instead of vacuum.

Frequently Asked Questions — Portland
Do you clean older homes and historic bungalows?
Constantly — it's most of inner Portland. Original wood, tile, and fixtures need a gentler, more detailed hand than a new build, and that's how we treat them. A first-time deep clean gets a century-old home back to baseline.
Which parts of Portland do you cover?
All five quadrants — North, Northeast, Southeast, Southwest, and the close-in west side (the Pearl and Nob Hill have their own Northwest Portland page). Send your ZIP through the form to confirm.
Parking and access on tight inner-city streets — is that a problem?
No. We're used to permit zones, narrow driveways, and street-only parking. Just tell us the access situation when you book and we'll plan around it.
What's the most popular schedule for Portland homes?
Bi-weekly is the sweet spot for most households. Weekly suits larger or busier homes; monthly works for smaller or lightly-used ones.
Are your cleaners background-checked?
Every one. State and national background check, W-2 employee (never a subcontractor), bonded and insured under our policy.
