House Cleaning Services in West Palm Beach, FL

House cleaning in West Palm Beach is a recurring routine for kitchens, bathrooms, floors and dusting. In the city’s historic neighborhoods, that routine has to work with original materials. El Cid, Flamingo Park, Old Northwood and Prospect Park are full of 1920s Mediterranean Revival, Mission-style and frame vernacular houses, and Grandview Heights has early Craftsman bungalows, many with original wood floors, plaster walls and period tile.

• Original wood floors. Original 1920s wood floors don’t hold up well to wet mopping. We vacuum first, then damp-mop with a wood-safe, pH-neutral cleaner.
• Plaster walls and period tile. Plaster scuffs and old tile glazes can be damaged by abrasive pads. We spot-clean walls gently and use non-scratch tools on vintage bathroom tile.
• Porches and wood-frame details. Frame vernacular and bungalow homes have deep window sills, porch trim and wood casings that collect dust and pollen, so we dust them by hand.
• Street parking, no gates. Most historic neighborhoods aren’t gated and rely on street parking. Knowing where the crew can park keeps the visit on schedule.
• SoSo’s mix of old and new. South of Southern ranges from mid-century ranch homes to custom waterfront houses on the Intracoastal.

We clean homes in El Cid, Flamingo Park, Old Northwood, Grandview Heights and South of Southern.

How do you clean original wood floors and tile in a 1920s El Cid or Flamingo Park home?

Gently. We remove grit first, damp-mop wood with a pH-neutral cleaner and dry it right away, and use soft tools on vintage tile. If your floor refinisher recommended a product, we can use it.
