🚪 Let’s Be Honest for a Second…
When people find out I clean homes for a living, their reaction usually falls into one of two categories:
“Oh, I’d be too embarrassed to let you into my house!”
“You must have the cleanest home ever!”
Spoiler alert: My house is… fine. (Let’s just say the sock gnomes live there too.) But when I am in work mode—walking into someone else’s home—it’s like my brain flips a switch. I can’t help it. Years of cleaning professionally have trained my eyes to zero in on certain things the moment I step inside.
So today, I’m spilling the mop water. 🧽 These are the first things I notice in a “dirty” room—not to judge, but because that’s where the grime loves to hide.
👀 1. Baseboards: The Silent Dirt Collectors
They’re like the eyebrows of a room—most people forget they exist, but once they’re clean, everything looks better.
If your baseboards have turned from white to grayish-brown, I will notice. And no, you’re not alone—almost everyone ignores them. That’s why they’re on our Deluxe Deep Clean checklist. You’re welcome. 😉
🌀 2. Ceiling Fans: The Lazy Tornado Blades
Ceiling fans are so sneaky. From a distance, they look fine. But tilt your head back? BAM—dust bunnies clinging for dear life.
And let’s not forget: the moment you flip that switch, those dust clumps go flying like glitter at a toddler’s birthday party.
🚿 3. The Shower Situation
We’ve all been there. You scrub and scrub, and somehow the hard water stains win again. But when I peek into a shower and see soap scum, mildew in the corners, or shampoo bottle buildup, I know this bathroom has been putting up a fight for a while.
Don’t worry—we’ve got the tools (and the patience) to win that war.
🛋️ 4. Pet Hair—It’s Practically Furniture
I love pets. I am a pet enthusiast. But I swear some of your dogs are double agents for fur production.
When your sofa has a fine coating of “golden retriever glitter,” I notice. So does your guest in black pants. It’s one of the biggest giveaways that your home is overdue for a deeper clean.
🔌 5. Switch Plates & Doorknobs: The Grime Zone
Think about it—your hands touch these all the time. Which is why they often get that sticky, slightly gray tinge that screams “I’ve been here since last flu season.”
Cleaning pros like us wipe them down without a second thought. You’ll be amazed how much cleaner a room feels when those little details shine.
🧴 6. The Kitchen Sink Tells a Story
There’s something about an overflowing sponge holder, mystery crumbs around the faucet, or a discolored drain that speaks to the soul of a kitchen. It says: “I’ve seen some things.”
We notice. And we respect the sink’s journey. But we also deep clean it into a comeback story.
📦 7. The “Drop Zone”
That one surface in every house—the kitchen counter, the entryway bench, the dining room table—that becomes a graveyard for unopened mail, rogue receipts, unmatched socks, and possibly an air fryer instruction manual from 2022.
I notice it because I have one too. But it’s also a big visual cue that clutter is taking over—and it makes a space feel dirtier than it might actually be.
😅 It’s Not About Perfection
Here’s the thing: I’m not walking in with a white glove and a judgmental stare. I’m walking in with a plan.
As a cleaning professional, I’m trained to find the grime so you don’t have to. The goal isn’t to make you feel bad—it’s to take that stress off your plate so you can come home and say:
“Ahhh… this feels better.”
✨ Ready for a Reset?
