Life in Melrose

Walk through Melrose and you'll notice what makes it special — the mid-rise apartment buildings, the tree-lined streets near Hostos Community College, and a community that takes pride in where they live. It's one of Bronx's neighborhoods that rewards the people who call it home. In the Bronx, Melrose cleaning isn't apartment-only — it's two-family homes, attached row houses, NYCHA towers, waterfront cottages, and pre-war Art Deco co-ops, and our cleaners arrive prepared for any of it.

That's why we're proud to serve Melrose with the same care and attention your neighborhood deserves. Our cleaners know the mid-rise apartment buildings and walk-ups here — and they know how to make them shine.

Absolutely. Many clients combine services — for example, a deep clean followed by weekly maintenance, or a move-out clean with post-construction cleanup. Let us know what you need and we'll create a custom plan.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule?+
First-time and one-time services cannot be cancelled or rescheduled once confirmed. Recurring services require 7 days notice to reschedule, and cancellations are only permitted if discontinuing the service entirely with 7 days notice. We don't take payment upfront — we hold your spot on our busy schedule, turning away other clients. Late changes directly affect our team members who depend on this income.
Do you clean apartments, houses, or both?+
Both. We clean apartments (studios through 4+ bedrooms), townhouses, brownstones, single-family homes, lofts, and penthouses. The hourly rate is the same regardless of home type.
How do you handle pets during cleaning?+
We're pet-friendly. If you have pets, let us know when booking so we can match you with a pet-comfortable cleaner. We ask that aggressive animals be secured in a separate room during the cleaning for everyone's safety.
Do you offer gift certificates?+
Yes — cleaning makes a great gift. Text us at (212) 202-9030 to purchase a gift certificate in any amount. We'll send a digital certificate that the recipient can redeem for any service.
What happens if something is damaged during cleaning?+
We carry general liability insurance specifically for this reason. If a cleaner accidentally damages something in your home, report it within 24 hours and we'll work with you to resolve it through our insurance coverage.
