For most homes in Columbia, standard house cleaning services should be booked on a weekly or biweekly basis. However, large households, or households that contain shedding pets or energetic children, may need to be tidied up more frequently.

A move in cleaning is an in-depth maid service that's performed on a new home shortly before the new occupants arrive. It's designed to ensure your new place is spotless and free of harmful microbes, parasites, fungi, toxins, allergens, and other unhealthy substances. On the other hand, a move out cleaning is performed on your old home in Columbia after you've already taken your belongings out. Its purpose is to prepare the property for rental or sale (if you're its owner) or prevent disagreements with your landlord (if you were a tenant) and help ensure you get your full security deposit back.

The difference between a standard maid service and a deep cleaning is like the difference between going to the salon for a trim and getting the whole shampoo-color-cut-blowout treatment. At Diamond Elite Maids, our deep cleaning service is a full-blown makeover. However, this type of service is about more than looks. Chances are, if you’ve been too busy to keep up with the basics, a few hidden nasties have been building up. You may or may not be aware of mutinous mold in your downstairs bath, the dust bunnies accumulating in your living space, and the half-eaten sweet potato under your sofa. Skipping these chores can create unpleasant odors and exacerbate allergies. Not to mention gross out your guests and start arguments. If you’re still working from home, or entertaining friends, you’ll want to sanitize common areas more thoroughly and frequently than ever. Plus, if we’re honest, we really want to wow you! And deep cleaning your place in Columbia is the best way to show you what we can really do. We go high and low to flush and brush dirt and debris from places that you rarely think about, but that your mother-in-law will certainly check. Yikes! That's why we like to start our recurring maid service with a comprehensive service. This gives you and us a benchmark by which to measure all future appointments. Every two to three months, you can set up another appointment to keep that sparkling look and fresh smell. You may also want to schedule it before or after parties, holidays, and other special occasions.

Tips are never mandatory, but they're always appreciated! If you feel your technician has done a particularly good job, don't hesitate to tip them in person, or leave a tip someplace where they will easily find it, such as on the kitchen counter or the dining table.
