House Cleaning: Planning from Attic to Basement

Cleaning a house often requires more planning than an apartment. Multiple floors, larger window areas, storage rooms, laundry rooms, cellars, and garages can make the job extensive. Define the scope of work clearly before asking for a price.

Note living area, floors, rooms, bathrooms, kitchens, stairs, and windows. Consider attic, basement, technical room, storage room, garage, terrace, and outdoor areas. Distinguish between what needs to be cleaned and what only needs to be emptied or swept.

Disclose the Condition

Inform if the dwelling has been vacant, if it's newly renovated, if there is soot, nicotine, pets, a lot of limescale, or construction and sanding dust. Such conditions may require different equipment and more time than standard end-of-tenancy cleaning.

Access and Logistics

Provide information about parking, distance to entrance, water, electricity, and keys. Clarify whether heavy appliances need to be moved, and who is responsible. Ensure that craftsmen and movers are finished before the final cleaning begins.

Check Zone by Zone

Divide the house into floors and rooms. Check high surfaces, cupboards, stairs, kitchen, wet rooms, and windows. Finish floors when other work is done. Take pictures of finished zones and close them off from further traffic.

What Affects the Price?

Area is important, but also the number of wet rooms, windows, condition, optional services, access, and deadline. Ask for a specified total price and a list of rooms and tasks.
