We clean houses across Lewisville

Many Lewisville houses sit on wooded lots

Lewisville sits on the western edge of Forsyth County, out toward the Yadkin River, and it feels more rural than the city next door. Many of the houses are on big lots with heavy tree cover, in subdivisions off Shallowford Road and Lewisville-Clemmons Road. Mixed in are some older farmhouses and brick ranch houses. Both of those things show up inside the house.

The ground here is Piedmont red clay, and a lot of it ends up indoors. It comes in on shoes and on the paws of every dog that has been out in the yard. Once it dries it turns to a fine orange dust that settles along baseboards and in the grout by the back door. Wet clay smears across a floor. Dry grit scratches the finish when people walk on it.

Trees add their own mess. Leaves and pine needles come in with the clay. A house under tall oaks and pines also gets less sun, so the shaded rooms stay damp longer. In most Lewisville houses the dirt starts at the doors people use every day, usually the garage or the back door. The front hall often stays cleaner than the path from the garage to the kitchen. That path is where a good cleaning starts.

• Entry floors mopped where the red clay comes in
• Orange clay dust wiped off baseboards
• Pine pollen dusted off sills and fan blades
• Mildew scrubbed out of shower grout
• Safe, green products used throughout the house

Spring pollen and summer damp come inside

Every spring the pines around Lewisville drop their pollen, and for a few weeks a yellow film covers cars and porch rails. That same dust comes in through window screens and on clothes. Indoors it settles on sills and on the tops of ceiling fan blades, where nobody looks. For anyone with allergies, steady dusting through pollen season keeps it from piling up in the bedroom.

Summers here are hot and sticky, and that moisture stays in a house. Bathrooms with a weak fan grow mildew in the grout and along the bottom of the shower door. On the shaded side of a wooded lot, a window sill can stay damp long enough to spot black. Mildew that gets scrubbed early wipes off. Left for a season, it stains the grout and the caulk, and cleaning alone will not bring the color back.

In winter the windows stay shut and the heat runs, so whatever is in the cleaning products stays in the air the family breathes. That is a good reason to clean with safe, green products, and those are what we use. They get the job done without filling a closed-up house with harsh chemicals. Pets that sleep on the floor are the closest to whatever we clean with.

Choose the cleaning your Lewisville house needs

Standard cleaning is the everyday kind. It covers the rooms you live in every day. It also keeps the clay by the back door and the pollen on the sills from building up. Many people in Lewisville drive into Winston-Salem for work, and the weekend is the only time left for the house. Handing the standard cleaning to us gives those weekends back to you.

A deep clean is for a house where the dirt has built up. Maybe the pollen piled up all spring, or work and family came first for a few months. A deep clean goes past the everyday surfaces to the baseboards, and to the grout and shower corners where mildew has started to darken. It takes longer than a standard cleaning because there is more to undo. After that, standard cleaning can keep up with it.

Moving-related cleaning is its own job. When a house in Lewisville changes hands, it sits empty for a short time. That is the one chance to reach inside every cabinet and closet with nothing in the way. We clean for the people leaving and for the people moving in. We also clean for seniors who want to stay in the house they know, where scrubbing a tub gets harder with every year.
