Careful house cleaning for Cape May Victorians
Tall ceilings, transoms, stair spindles and a dozen rooms on three floors. A Victorian takes longer to dust than a ranch house, and the details are the point. A regular house cleaning service here means working top down, by hand, with products that will not cloud old glass or lift original finishes. That is how we approach residential cleaning Cape May owners trust us with.
Monthly house cleaning keeps a part-time house from ever needing a big reset.
- Spindles, transoms and picture rails dusted by hand
- Kitchens and bathrooms cleaned with gentle products
- Porches and entry floors swept of sand and leaves
- Old windows wiped without streaking wavy glass

Hardwood floor cleaning for old heart pine and oak in Cape May
Original floors in the historic district can be well over a century old. Wet mops and steam do them no favors. Hardwood floor cleaning that lifts dirt and film with very little water keeps the patina without raising the grain. Our hardwood floor cleaning service explains the method.
Many of these floors carry antique or Oriental rugs. Ours go through specialty rug cleaning rather than a standard carpet pass.

Deep cleaning before the Cape May holiday house tours
Every December, Cape May opens its Victorian homes for candlelight tours, and plenty of owners want the house spotless before strangers walk through it. A house deep cleaning service covers baseboards, door and window trim, light fixtures, cabinet faces and the bathrooms. Residential cleaning Cape May hosts book in late November fills up, so call early.
Old bathroom tile with stained grout can go to our tile and grout cleaning crew in the same week.

Dogs are welcome in a lot of Cape May homes. Our pet odor treatment and pet mess remediation handle the stains they leave behind.
