The Classic Home Cleaning
Essential Home Cleaning and Maintenance
The Classic Clean is the foundation of Housework Home Maintenance and the reason clients trust us for consistent, high-quality interior cleaning. Our proven system breaks the home into zones, allowing us to clean efficiently and thoroughly with reliable, professional results every time. This approach ensures everything from baseboards to ceiling fans are always handled with care. In addition to expert cleaning, we also offer handyman services and can take care of minor repairs or small jobs around the house, so that’s one less thing for you to worry about. The Classic Clean delivers more than just a clean home—it’s a complete, stress-free way to keep your space looking its best and running smoothly.
We'll take care of the basics...
The Classic Clean is the foundation of Housework Home Maintenance and the key to a consistently clean, well-cared-for home. Offered weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly, this service delivers reliable, eco-friendly cleaning that keeps your space fresh, healthy, and maintained.
Our system is designed to clean interior spaces with optimal efficiency while ensuring consistent, above-and-beyond quality. Each visit follows a detailed process that covers all major zones—surfaces, floors, fixtures, and high-touch areas—so nothing is overlooked.
We use only all-natural, non-toxic products that are safe for your family, pets, and the environment. And because we’re already in the home, our trained team uses each visit as an opportunity to spot small repairs or maintenance issues before they become bigger problems.
Every membership begins with a Classic Clean, unlocking access to Deep Cleans, Move-Out services, Vacation Rental Turnovers, and our in-home Handyman service. It’s not just cleaning—it’s complete, thoughtful home care.
What You Get
The Classic Clean covers all main areas of your home—kitchen, bathrooms, living spaces, bedrooms, and hallways—using eco-friendly, non-toxic products. Each visit includes detailed dusting, surface wipe-downs, floor care, trash removal, and cleaning of high-touch areas like switches and handles. Kitchens and bathrooms receive extra attention, with sinks, fixtures, and appliance exteriors cleaned and polished. Our team also uses this time to identify any minor repairs or maintenance needs, making it easy to address them through our Handyman service. It’s consistent, top-to-bottom care that keeps your home clean, healthy, and ready for anything.
