House Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

Prepare to leave your home for a long absence by making sure small appliances and electronic devices are unplugged. You should also shut valves to your sinks, dishwasher, and washing machine. Set your thermostat closer to outside temperatures or a minimum of 55 degrees Fahrenheit, stop your mail (or have someone pick it up), and put at least one light on a timer.

You will need to discuss with your pest control expert to know when and what to clean after the treatment. Sometimes, you may have to wait a couple of weeks for deep cleaning to avoid wiping up the treatment they applied.

However, you’ll want to wipe down any surfaces you use for food prep and eating. Before the treatment, you’ll also want to make sure that items such as pet dishes and children's toys won’t be exposed to the chemicals.

Most housekeepers are happy to tailor their cleaning checklist to fit your needs. Discuss your priorities and any special requests before the first visit. Be specific about areas of focus or spaces to avoid. Clear communication ensures your home is cleaned exactly as you like, maximizing the value of your investment.

Your contractor should do routine rough cleanups throughout the construction process, but you should schedule a dedicated house cleaning service to come in a day or two after the construction is complete. This will provide enough time for dust and debris to settle after the construction and will get your home move-in ready as quickly as possible after the work is done. If you schedule ahead of time, be sure to keep in contact with your contractor to make sure there won’t be any delays.

If you’re hiring someone to clean an empty and tidy house before you move in, there’s little prep work to do. Make sure to discuss your goals with the cleaning service, arrange entry to the house, and communicate any problem areas or special requests. If you’ve already moved into the house, or if it’s messy, it’s best to complete the following tasks before the cleaners arrive:

  • Declutter things like clothes, toys, or cardboard boxes

  • Do the dishes

  • Put fragile items in a safe spot where they can’t be accidentally broken

  • Keep pets away from cleaning areas
