"I had an appointment on Monday, but Teresa did not show up, nor did she call. I talked with her and she was going to call to let me know what time she could come today. No phone call. Disappointing. ."

Her business quickly grew into a full-time job as she found delight in making life easier for her customers. Throughout the years Natalie and long-time family friend Melissa helped J&D Cleaning grow into a thriving business. When Donna passed away suddenly in 2016, Natalie took the reigns to keep her mother's sparkling legacy alive. Today, customers throughout Baltimore and the surrounding counties continue to count on Natalie, Melissa and the J&D Cleaning team to provide the same professional affordable services. Each employee is fully trained by Natalie to ensure customers are confident their homes are being cleaned by a trustworthy staff in a manor that would make her mom proud.

House Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Vinegar is an excellent cleaning ingredient for freezer parts and interior walls. Make a homemade cleaner with distilled white vinegar and warm water to thoroughly clean your freezer. It works well for cleaning up stubborn spills.

Clean high-traffic areas such as kitchen surfaces, bathroom surfaces, and bedding once per week. Deep clean other areas every three months to a year. How you use a space can help you figure out how often it should be cleaned, with areas where eating, bathing, and food prep occur getting the most frequent attention.

When you deep clean your washing machine, using hot water is the best practice since it’s more effective than cold water at killing various types of bacteria and viruses. Plus, hot water tends to break down soap residue more efficiently.

There are different reasons for wanting to wash your floor by hand or using a mop. For deep and thorough cleaning, hand washing allows you to scrub hard-to-reach spots, ensuring the entire floor is pristine. You may want to use this method every other month. Mopping is ideal for weekly maintenance and vast spaces where hand washing is too time-consuming and labor-intensive. Remember, cleaning your floors regularly is better than skipping the task altogether, so use the best method that works for you.

The type of cleaning requested will change the total price you pay. Be sure to specify the type of cleaning you need when hiring a new cleaning service. Different approaches to cleaning change the price, such as:

  • Standard cleaning: $75–$175 per visit

  • Deep cleaning: $200–$400 per visit

  • Move-out cleaning: Up to $500

  • Event cleaning: $100–$500
