FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Find answers to the most common questions about our services.

Getting Started

Most homes do best with biweekly cleaning. It keeps the house consistently under control without feeling like overkill.

Weekly cleaning is best for busy households, families with kids, pet owners, allergy-sensitive homes, or anyone who wants the house to feel reset every week.

Monthly cleaning can work for smaller homes, lighter-use spaces, or people who stay fairly tidy between visits. Just know that monthly cleans usually take longer because there is more buildup between appointments.

For most clients, we recommend starting with a First Time Clean to reset the home, then choosing the recurring schedule that fits your lifestyle: weekly, biweekly, or monthly.

It is important to book the cleaning service that matches the actual size and needs of your home. This ensures our cleaners are prepared and allocated sufficient time to clean your entire home effectively. When additional rooms are added upon the cleaner’s arrival, it can lead to incomplete cleaning and disrupt our schedule. Accurate bookings allow us to provide consistent, thorough, and reliable service during each visit. If you need to update your booking to reflect the actual number of rooms and bathrooms in your house, please contact us for assistance.

Our booking form has it’s own layer of 256 bit security. Credit card transactions are processed by Stripe, which has its own 256 security protocol. Additionally, our system does not store your credit card number, only a token that allows us to charge the card when the service is complete.

What's Included

First-time clients who haven’t had their home cleaned professionally within the last month will need to add the Deep Clean option in the Extras section in order to give our crew members the time they need to achieve the high-quality results we’re known for. Once that’s complete, our regular maintenance clean is the perfect choice for weekly/biweekly/monthly Brooklyn Cleaning Co services moving forward!

Please ensure that the home is empty prior to our cleaning service and that there are no other people (movers, tradespeople etc) working in the space. And we will need electricity and water!

Sometimes a garage, a closet, or an entire room can get a little out of control and leave you feeling overwhelmed and unsure of where to even start.

During renovations, fine dust and debris can accumulate, which standard cleaning services do not typically cover. A post-construction clean is essential to remove this dust and debris, ensuring a thorough and deep clean of your home. Once the initial post-construction clean is completed, we can seamlessly transition to the bi-weekly maintenance cleaning you need. This approach helps us provide the highest quality of service and avoid any issues with incomplete cleaning due to renovation dust. Please contact us by email at [email protected] or text/phone us at 555-555-5555 to discuss.
