Apartment Cleaning for Every Kind of NYC Building
New York has more kinds of apartments than most cities have kinds of buildings. A fifth-floor walk-up in the East Village with a radiator that spits dust all winter. A post-war white-brick on the Upper East Side with a galley kitchen and a doorman who logs every visitor. A converted loft in Williamsburg with exposed brick that sheds grit onto everything below it. A glass tower in Long Island City where the floor-to-ceiling windows show every fingerprint. Each one gets dirty in its own way, and each one needs a slightly different approach.
Our apartment cleaning service in NYC is built around those differences. Before the first visit we ask about your building, your floors, your appliances, and anything that needs special handling, so the cleaner who arrives already knows whether they are dealing with pre-war plaster and original hardwood or a brand-new unit with quartz counters and a dishwasher that has never been run. That prep is what lets us clean a studio in about the time it takes to make a grocery run and still get the corners.
We also handle the part of apartment cleaning that has nothing to do with cleaning: getting in. Doorman sign-in, co-op boards that want vendor details ahead of time, freight elevator windows, buildings that only allow outside workers between nine and five, keys left with the super, smart locks, package rooms. You tell us once how your building works and we follow it on every visit, without you having to leave work to buzz someone in.
Most clients settle on a visit every two weeks, which keeps a one- or two-bedroom in good shape between visits without turning cleaning into a weekly line item. Weekly service makes sense for households with a dog, roommates who all cook, or anyone working from a 400-square-foot studio where the desk is also the dining table. Monthly visits suit people who keep up with the surface stuff themselves and want the bathroom, the stovetop, and the floors done properly once a month. One-time visits are always available, and there is no contract locking you into a schedule.
Whatever the frequency, the cleaning itself follows the same room-by-room checklist every time: kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, and living space, from the light fixtures down to the baseboards and floors. Pricing is by unit size, so a standard clean runs from $110 for a studio to $220 and up for three or more bedrooms, and you know the number before anyone arrives.

How Often Should an NYC Apartment Be Cleaned?
1Every Two Weeks
The default for most one- and two-bedroom apartments. Bathrooms and kitchens never get far enough gone to need a scrub, and the cost stays manageable for a couple or a pair of roommates.
2Every Week
For apartments that work hard: a dog that sheds on hardwood, three roommates sharing one bathroom, or a home office that doubles as a living room. Weekly visits keep the dust and the crumbs from ever stacking up.
3Once a Month
A good fit if you wipe counters and run the vacuum yourself but want the grout, the stovetop, and the baseboards handled by someone who does it all day.
4A Single Visit
Company flying in, a landlord inspection, a sublet starting Sunday, or a winter where the radiator dust simply won. Book one clean with no commitment and see what the checklist looks like in your place.
5Lease Start or Lease End
Moving between apartments is its own project. Our move-in and move-out cleanings are built for empty units, security deposits, and landlords with a walkthrough on the calendar.
Recurring Apartment Cleaning Costs Less Per Visit
Pick a weekly, biweekly, or monthly slot and we hold it for you at a lower rate

For full households, pets, roommates, and anyone who entertains
15% OFFBi-Weekly
The rhythm most New York apartments settle into
10% OFFMonthly
A reset for studios, one-bedrooms, and tidy solo households
Quarterly
A seasonal deep clean four times a year, radiator dust included.
Nobody in this city has spare hours for scrubbing. Between the commute, late nights at work, and weekends that fill up on their own, the apartment gets pushed down the list. A standing visit takes it off the list entirely. Choose weekly, every other week, or monthly, and we hold the slot for you. Traveling or hosting on a different day? Move the visit with a day's notice at no charge.
Why NYC Apartment Dwellers Book NYC Cleaning Service
Built Around Building Rules
Vendor hours, freight elevators, doorman sign-in, keys with the super. We keep a note on file for your building and follow it every visit, so you are not explaining the same thing to a new person each time.
Careful in Small Spaces
Apartments put your furniture, your walls, and your belongings within arm's reach of everything we do. We go slowly around plaster, painted trim, and the things that matter to you, and quickly on the floors and counters.
Priced by Unit Size
Studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, three or more. Set ranges from our published price list, quoted before the visit, with no hourly meter running while the cleaner works.
One Standard, Every Visit
The same checklist runs whether it is your first clean or your fortieth, and we keep the same cleaner on your apartment whenever the schedule allows, so the results do not change from month to month.

Post-Construction Cleaning NYCApartment Cleaning Questions, Answered
Standard cleans run $110 to $140 for a studio, $130 to $170 for a one-bedroom, $170 to $220 for a two-bedroom, and $220 and up for three or more bedrooms. Deep cleans cost more because they take longer. You get the exact figure before you confirm the booking.
Yes, and we clean a lot of them. Our cleaners carry their own supplies up the stairs, so a fifth-floor walk-up in Hell's Kitchen or Bushwick is not a problem. Just tell us the floor when you book so we can plan the visit.
Most co-ops and condos in the city have vendor windows, often weekday business hours, and some want a name on file with the front desk ahead of time. Give us the rules when you book and we schedule inside them. The same goes for freight elevator reservations in larger buildings.
That is the goal for every recurring client, and it is how we schedule. If your regular cleaner is out, the replacement works from the same notes on your apartment and building, so nothing about the visit changes.
Only the details. Tell us which rooms are in scope and whether any bedroom is off limits. Plenty of shared apartments in Bushwick and Washington Heights split a biweekly clean three ways, and it works fine.
Let us know within 24 hours and we come back to take care of it at no charge. It rarely happens because the checklist is the same every visit, but the promise stands regardless.
