Custom Cleaning: When "Standard" Doesn't Cover Your Situation
Odd-hours cleaning, unusual surfaces, one-of-a-kind requests — how to scope a custom cleaning job so nothing gets missed.

Not every cleaning job fits a checkbox. Estate sales, event turnovers, art studios, holiday-let flip cycles, hoarding-recovery support — custom cleaning is our largest and most-varied service category. Here's how to scope one so nothing gets missed.
When custom is the right service
Anything outside standard residential/commercial: art studios (chemical sensitivities), photography sets, film production locations, greenhouses, boat interiors, estate/downsizing, event pre-and-post, ADU turnovers, and specialty surfaces (marble, brass, unfinished wood).
How to scope
Send us: photos, square footage estimate, target completion time, any surface concerns, and access details. We respond within a few hours with a fixed quote or a walk-through booking.
Common custom projects we run
- Estate cleanouts (with content disposition coordination)
- Post-event large-venue turnover
- Recurring photography studio maintenance
- Short-term rental turnover with linen service
- One-time deep clean after long-term construction dust exposure
Pricing model
Most custom jobs are quoted at $55–75/hour per cleaner for straightforward work, project-fixed for scoped jobs. Specialty surfaces or biohazard-adjacent work may include a materials surcharge.
What we don't do
Full biohazard remediation (crime scenes, sewage overflow), asbestos, mold remediation beyond surface bleach — all require specialty licensing. We refer trusted partners for those. Everything else, see custom cleaning for booking.
