Good to know in Houston

Many Houston landlords and apartment complexes charge cleaning fees from deposits, and move-out standards are strict. Moves cluster at the end of the month and in summer, so book a few days ahead. After heavy storms, floor and grout dirt can also build up quickly in empty homes.

Questions about move-in and move-out cleaning

Will I get my deposit back?

We follow a checklist that matches what most landlords look for. We cannot guarantee a deposit decision, but photos help.

Does the home need to be empty?

Mostly. The cleaner the home is of items, the better we can clean.

Do you clean carpets?

We vacuum carpets. Steam cleaning is a separate service we can refer.

Can you clean the same day I hand over keys?

Often yes. Ask early because end-of-month slots fill fast.
