Cleaning Scope for Move-In & Move-Out Services

We agree on the cleaning scope with you before service. This focuses the estimate and service-day work on the rooms, surfaces, and materials that apply to your property.

Confirmed cleaning areas can include:

• Kitchen surfaces: Countertops and sinks.
• Bathroom surfaces: Countertops, sinks, bathtubs, and showers.
• Appliances: Microwaves, ovens, and ranges.
• Floors: Wood, vinyl, and tile flooring.
• Detailed dusting: Window frames, light fixtures, and ceiling fans.

Review any lease, sale agreement, or handover document that identifies cleaning responsibilities before selecting services. Tell us about special surfaces or materials during the estimate conversation so they can be considered in the scope.

Custom Estimates & Service-Day Planning

We provide a free custom cleaning estimate rather than relying on published flat rates. Pricing reflects the home and the work requested.

To prepare for your estimate and service, have these details ready:

• The property size and number of rooms.
• The types of flooring throughout the home.
• The kitchen, bathroom, appliance, floor, and dusting tasks requested.
• Any special surfaces or materials that may affect the work.

Customers can also use our immediate online price quote tool. The quote or estimate provides property-specific pricing based on the size, requested scope, and special surfaces or materials involved. If the scope changes, discuss the additional work with us rather than assuming it’s included.

Property Access Before Cleaning

Confirm property access arrangements before the appointment. Entry instructions, parking, elevator access, and building requirements can affect how cleaners arrive or enter. Landlords, property managers, condominium associations, or homeowners associations may also have access procedures, so check the requirements for the property.

Reviewing Completed Areas

On service day, our team completes the scope agreed upon during the estimate process. Afterward, you review the completed areas. This review allows you to compare the work with the cleaning tasks discussed before service.

Illinois Security Deposits & Rental Cleaning

Professional cleaning can address the services you request, but it doesn’t replace your responsibility to review the lease and rental handover requirements. We can’t guarantee approval from a landlord, property manager, or homeowners association. We also can’t guarantee the return of a security deposit because deposit decisions may involve rent, property condition, damage, documentation, and other lease obligations.

The Illinois Security Deposit Return Act governs certain security deposit returns. When a landlord withholds part of a covered deposit for damage, the landlord must provide an itemized statement within 30 days after the tenant vacates. If no statement is provided, the full deposit must be returned within 45 days. Applicability can depend on the property and circumstances.

Illinois security deposit deductions may include unpaid rent, damage beyond ordinary wear and tear, and reasonable cleaning required to restore a unit to its move-in level of cleanliness. Ordinary wear and tear is deterioration associated with normal use rather than tenant-caused damage. Examples can include faded paint, minor carpet wear, and small nail holes.

This information is general context, not legal advice. Renters should review their lease, move-in records, inspection documents, and applicable Illinois requirements when evaluating a possible deduction. Homebuyers and sellers should likewise review their purchase or handover documents rather than treating professional cleaning as a guarantee of contractual approval.
