Our Process: Step by Step
Property Walkthrough & Cleaning Plan
We walk the entire property before cleaning begins to assess every room, identify areas of particular concern, and confirm the full scope of the job including any add-on services. This is where we note cabinet conditions, floor types, bathroom tile and grout state, and any areas that need extra attention. We confirm all add-on services (carpet cleaning, tile and grout, wood floor cleaning, carpet stretching, or carpet repair) at this stage so everything is coordinated and completed before move-in day.
Kitchen Deep Clean
We deep clean the entire kitchen: inside and outside all cabinets and drawers, inside the refrigerator, inside the oven and stovetop, inside the microwave and dishwasher, all countertops, backsplash, sink, fixtures, and hardware. Years of grease, spills, and residue from prior occupancy are fully removed. The kitchen is the area new occupants most want verified as clean before unpacking, and we treat it with the thoroughness that standard requires.
Bathroom Deep Clean
Every bathroom is scrubbed, disinfected, and polished: showers, tubs, tile surround, grout lines, toilets, vanities, sinks, mirrors, fixtures, and hardware. Soap scum, hard water deposits, and mildew that have built up through prior occupancy are fully removed. Bathroom grout in particular holds contamination from previous residents that no surface wipe-down addresses. We clean it properly.
Bedrooms, Living Areas & Detail Cleaning
We clean all bedrooms and living areas from top to bottom: dusting and wiping ceiling fans and light fixtures, cleaning interior windows, wiping window sills and tracks, cleaning all doors and door frames, sanitizing light switches and outlets, cleaning baseboards throughout, wiping all shelving and closet interiors, and vacuuming or mopping all floors based on surface type. These are the areas most consistently skipped in standard move-out cleans, and the areas where prior occupancy residue accumulates most invisibly.
Floor Care, Add-On Services & Final Walkthrough
All floors are cleaned based on surface type. Carpet is vacuumed thoroughly and professional carpet cleaning is available as an add-on, hard surface floors are mopped and detail-cleaned at edges and transitions. If carpet stretching or carpet repair was identified during the walkthrough, it is completed at this stage so the home is fully move-in ready before furniture arrives. We conduct a final walkthrough of the entire property before considering the job complete and address any areas that need additional attention before we leave.
Why Choose Total Cleaning Service
One Vendor for Everything Before You Unpack
We handle cleaning, carpet cleaning, tile and grout, wood floors, and carpet stretching. You don't need to coordinate multiple vendors before move-in day. One call covers the full property.
Cleaned to Your Standard, Not the Last Occupant's
Previous occupants and professional cleaning crews have different standards. We do a full top-to-bottom detail clean (the inside of appliances, cabinets and drawers, bathroom surfaces, floors) so you know exactly what you're moving into.
Verified Clean Before Your Furniture Arrives
The best time to deep clean a home is before your furniture is in it. We work with your closing or lease timeline to schedule service in the window between possession and move-in day.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between move-in cleaning and move-out cleaning?
The cleaning tasks are nearly identical: both are full top-to-bottom detail cleans, and both include the inside of appliances, cabinets and drawers. The difference is purpose. Move-out cleaning is about accountability: the outgoing occupant needs to document the property's condition. Move-in cleaning is about confidence: you want to verify the home is genuinely clean before your family and belongings go in. We offer both and can coordinate them back-to-back for landlords managing tenant turnover.
Is move-in cleaning necessary if the previous owner already had the home professionally cleaned?
That depends on your standard. A move-out clean performed for the previous owner's benefit (to satisfy a landlord or buyer) may have addressed visible surfaces while leaving cabinet interiors, grout lines, appliance crevices, and window tracks untouched. If you want to know with certainty that your new home is clean by your standard before your family moves in, a move-in clean gives you that certainty.
Can you clean the carpet and floors before furniture arrives?
Yes, and that's the ideal time. Carpet cleaning, tile and grout, wood and LVP floor cleaning, carpet stretching, and carpet repair are all available as add-ons coordinated in the same visit as the move-in clean. Cleaning floors before furniture arrives gives us unrestricted access to every square foot and produces better results than working around furniture after move-in.
Should the property be empty before you clean?
Ideally, yes. Move-in cleaning is most thorough when the property is fully empty before furniture arrives. Full access to every floor, closet, and corner produces the best result. If any items have already been moved in, let us know at the time of booking so we can plan accordingly.
How much does move-in cleaning cost in Northern Virginia?
Move-in cleaning starts at $300 and is a flat price by home size: up to 600 sq. ft. is $300, and the price rises to $875 for 3,001 to 3,500 sq. ft. Homes over 3,500 sq. ft. are quoted. Every size includes the inside of appliances, cabinets and drawers. Booking online requires a credit/debit card on file to hold your appointment. You are not charged until the service is complete. Floor care add-ons are quoted separately during the initial walkthrough. Call 703-232-6027 or book online to schedule.
