Quick Checklist Before We Arrive

You do not need a spotless home. The more cleared your surfaces are, the deeper we can clean.

Clear Surfaces, Deeper Clean

A few minutes of tidying lets the team focus on the real cleaning.

Life is busy, so we make sure your clean day is never a surprise. You will get a reminder ahead of your appointment, and our team arrives within your scheduled window.

You absolutely do not need to be home for your clean, that is the whole point. Just leave a door code, a key, or arrange access so our team can get in. Double-check that your code or key is ready before clean day, it is an easy one to avoid.

We are a pet-friendly team and love meeting the four-legged members of your family. For the smoothest clean possible, please keep dogs kenneled or outside during your appointment.

We are a small, locally owned business and every appointment on our schedule matters. When a clean is cancelled or missed, it leaves a gap that is hard to fill on short notice. If our team arrives and cannot get into your home, requiring a reschedule, a lockout fee applies.

What We Clean, and What We Don't

We are specialists, not generalists, and that is exactly what makes us the best. Here is a clear picture of what is included in your clean.

What is included in every clean?

Every Sandia clean is a deep clean. Kitchens and bathrooms fully reset, floors vacuumed and mopped, all surfaces dusted, baseboards and blinds included, beds made, and trash taken out. The same trained three-person team handles it, so nothing gets skipped.

  • Baseboards, blinds and full surfaces on every visit
  • Eco-friendly products, no harsh chemicals or off-gassing
What do you not clean?

We do not do exterior windows, carpet shampooing, heavy-duty mold or biohazard remediation, pest cleanup, or anything requiring a ladder above standard reach. If you are unsure whether something is covered, ask us before your appointment and we will tell you straight.

  • No exterior windows or high-ladder work
  • No biohazard, mold remediation or pest cleanup
How do I prepare for a move-in or move-out clean?

Move-in and move-out cleans work best on an empty home. Have furniture and belongings out, utilities on so we have water and power, and let us know if a landlord or property manager has an inspection checklist we should work from.

  • Home empty, utilities on
  • Share any landlord inspection checklist ahead of time
Do I need to do anything before the team arrives?

Just clear what you can. Pick up clothes and toys from the floor, clear countertops and tabletops where possible, and put away anything valuable or fragile. That is all it takes. The more cleared your surfaces are, the deeper we can clean.

  • Clear counters and floors where you can
  • Put away valuables and fragile items

  • Mon-Fri 8am-4pm MT
What if I need to cancel or reschedule?

We are a small, locally owned business and every appointment on our schedule matters. When a clean is cancelled or missed, it leaves a gap that is hard to fill on short notice. Just give us as much notice as you can. If our team arrives and cannot get into your home, requiring a reschedule, a lockout fee applies.

  • Give us as much notice as you can
  • Double-check your door code or key before clean day

What It's Like the First Time

New clients tell us the same thing: it was easier than they expected.

"I stressed about getting the house ready for the house cleaners, which I know is ridiculous. They told me to just clear the counters and leave a code. That was genuinely it."
Megan R. Albuquerque
"Left a key in the lockbox, went to work, came home and the whole place was reset. No standing around making small talk while someone cleans around you."
Daniel P. Rio Rancho
"They asked about our dog up front and kenneled him without me having to explain it twice. Small thing, but it told me they had done this before."
Alicia S. Corrales
"Two hours, three people, and they hit the baseboards without me asking. I did not realize that was just included."
Robert K. Santa Fe
"The reminder text is what sold me. I never have to wonder whether today is the day or scramble at the last minute."
Jennifer M. Albuquerque
"Same crew every time means I stopped leaving notes. They already know how we like things and I get my Saturday back."
Thomas B. Bernalillo
