Move-In Cleaning in Lexington, MA

Families move to Lexington for the schools, which means most moves here land in July and August and most of them are into larger single-family homes. That's a lot of square footage to inherit sight-unseen — four bedrooms, finished basements, attached garages, and a kitchen whose cabinets you're about to fill without ever having looked inside them. Move-in cleaning is how you find out what you actually bought before you're living in it.

Lexington's older colonials near the Battle Green and along the Minuteman Bikeway need a different touch than the postwar and contemporary homes further out. Original millwork, plaster, and painted stair rails don't take aggressive products well, so we match method to material instead of running one checklist over everything. Newer construction gets the opposite problem — builder dust in the HVAC registers and window tracks that never got a proper first clean.

We schedule around closings. If you're closing in the morning and the truck comes the next day, that overnight gap is enough for a full-house clean, and we'd rather use it than have you unpack around us. For families relocating from out of state who won't see the house before moving day, we can walk it after cleaning and send photos so you know what you're arriving to.
