Older homes in Sherman Hill, Beaverdale and beyond
Sherman Hill's Victorian homes were platted between 1877 and 1882. Beaverdale has historic brick houses, and North of Grand and Woodland Heights have Tudor and Colonial Revival ones.
Trim, built-ins and stair rails in houses like these collect dust. If yours has them, say so when you request a house cleaning. A first deep clean can reset the place before you settle into regular visits.
Downtown and East Village apartments, plus college move-outs
Apartments and lofts fill downtown and the East Village. Drake University, DMACC, Grand View University and Des Moines University also bring renters who move in and out on a school-year rhythm.
Leases turn over and landlords hand out checklists. Apartment cleaning covers building access and unit sizes, and move-out cleaning is the one for handing back keys.
River floods, basements and damp
The Raccoon and Des Moines rivers flooded the area in 1993 and again in 2008. Many Des Moines homes have basements, and a basement can hold damp, musty smells and dust long after a wet spell.
If a basement or lower level is on your cleaning list, say so in the request. We'll confirm scope and timing with you.
Fast-growing suburbs and new builds
The suburbs keep growing. Ankeny has about 74,458 residents, West Des Moines about 72,205, and Waukee has grown 32 percent in recent estimates. New homes and recent move-ins often need a clean before the furniture arrives or once the boxes are gone.
Requests come in from across the metro. We have pages for Waukee, Johnston and Urbandale.
