White salt lines on the hardwood inside the front door by January
Chicago spread 322,000 tons of road salt in the winter of 2020-21, and plenty of it climbs the bungalow front steps on boots. It dries into white lines on the entry hardwood and the stair treads, and a quick mop only spreads the film. Recurring cleaning keeps it from building all winter, with the per-visit price on screen first.
Put the hall runner back down before the snow is done
Stop spending Sunday afternoon on your knees at the two-flat door. Pick weekly or every two weeks and the price for each Chicago visit shows before anyone asks your name, so you know what a salt-season routine costs before you start one.
A salt-season upkeep clean and a third-floor walk-up move-out are different jobs
A Chicago home that gets regular care needs a standard clean, and one that slipped through the winter needs a deep clean or the extra-dirty level, because each takes longer. Moving out of a Lake View walk-up or turning over a rental has its own level. Oven and fridge cost extra only when ticked.
- Standard clean
- Deep clean
- Move-in or move-out clean
- Vacation-rental turnover
- Extra dirty (above average)
- Inside the oven, +$40
- Inside the fridge and freezer, +$25
