We clean houses across Clemmons

Pollen and clay get into Clemmons houses

Clemmons is mostly neighborhoods of single-family houses, spread along Lewisville-Clemmons Road and back toward Tanglewood Park. The older streets have brick ranches with carpeted bedrooms and tile that has been mopped for years. The newer subdivisions lean toward bigger houses with open kitchens and tall family rooms. In those houses, the ceiling fans and the ledge over the front door are well out of reach from the floor. Each kind of house collects dirt in different places, and we clean each one with that in mind.

Spring is the messy season in Clemmons. Pine pollen coats porches and cars in a yellow film, then rides inside on shoes and dog fur and settles on window sills. The red clay of the Piedmont does the rest. After a rain it tracks across the entry floor and packs into grout lines, and once it dries it can stain light carpet orange. Summers are humid, so houses stay shut with the air running, and dust settles on vents and the tops of cabinets.

So a clean in Clemmons starts at the doors. We work the front entry and the door from the garage first, because clay left there gets carried into every other room. Window sills and baseboards get wiped by hand with a damp cloth. In pollen season the yellow film comes back within days, so we wipe the sills again on every visit. Pollen left on a sill for weeks ends up in the rug below it, where it is harder to get out.

What a deep clean covers in Clemmons

A standard cleaning takes care of what you touch every day, like kitchen counters and bathroom sinks. A deep clean goes after the buildup that daily cleaning misses. That means grease on the range hood and soap film on the shower glass. It means dust along door frames and on top of the kitchen cabinets, where nobody looks until the afternoon sun hits it. If a Clemmons house has not had a full clean in a long while, start with a deep clean. Standard visits keep it that way after.

The age of the house changes where the time goes. In an older Clemmons ranch, most of the work goes into tile grout and the wood trim around doors, which has collected fingerprints for years. In a newer house with tall rooms, most of the work is up high. The fan over the family room needs a ladder, and so does the plant ledge over the front door. A long staircase adds dust on every spindle and a handrail that every hand in the house touches.

Moving is the other time a house needs a full clean. When a Clemmons house is empty, before a sale closes or before new people arrive, every cabinet and closet is easy to reach. We clean inside the cabinets and drawers, then do the floors where the furniture stood. The red clay that movers track in on a wet day comes up with it. The next family walks into a house that is ready to live in, and a landlord gets back a rental that is ready to show.

We use green products around your family

We clean with green products, and that is a choice we made on purpose. Plenty of Clemmons houses have a toddler on the kitchen floor or a dog asleep on the rug we just finished. Some have an older parent living in the downstairs bedroom. When the windows are shut for summer, whatever we spray stays in the air the family breathes. Green products clean the house without leaving harsh fumes behind for the people who live there.

Green products still have to beat real dirt. Soap film on a shower door and grease on a stovetop have to come off, and they do, with the right product and more scrubbing. Red clay in Clemmons grout lines takes hard work no matter what is in the bottle, and we put that work in. What you do not get is a chemical film left on the counter where you make lunch, or on the floor where the cat eats. That matters most in the kitchen, where food and cleaning products share the same surfaces.

Take Care Cleaning is a Black owned and women owned business based in Kernersville. Clemmons is on the far side of Winston-Salem from us, and we drive over on the interstate to do the work. We clean for families, and for seniors who would rather not climb a ladder to dust a fan. Our hours run weekdays and Saturday, and we are closed on Sunday. You can reach us by phone or ask for an estimate online.
