Why New Homes Need Cleaning Too
Whether a home is brand new or previously occupied, moving in without a professional clean means starting with someone else’s standard of cleanliness. New construction homes have construction dust, adhesive residue, and debris. Previously occupied homes have the accumulated grime of the previous occupants in every corner, drawer, and cabinet. A move-in clean addresses all of this before your belongings are unpacked.
What Is Included
A professional move-in cleaning is essentially a deep clean of an empty space. With no furniture to work around, the team has access to every surface, corner, and built-in. The process includes cleaning inside all cabinets and drawers, cleaning all appliances inside and out, scrubbing bathrooms thoroughly including grout and hard water treatment, cleaning all windows inside, wiping down all baseboards and door frames, cleaning closet interiors, and mopping or vacuuming all floors.
The Advantage of an Empty Space
Move-in cleaning is the most thorough version of a home clean because nothing is in the way. Appliances can be cleaned fully without items stored on top of them. Closets can be cleaned completely. Floors can be mopped to the edges of every room. The result is a clean that is difficult to achieve once the home is furnished and occupied.
When to Schedule It
The ideal timing for a move-in clean is after the previous occupants or construction crew have fully vacated, and before any of your belongings are moved in. If some overlap is unavoidable, the cleaning can still be done room by room as each space is cleared.
