How to Keep a Large Gladwyne Home Clean: A Room-by-Room Plan
Big houses on wooded Gladwyne lots need a cleaning plan, not just a cleaning. Here is how to rotate rooms, handle pollen and leaves, and keep lower levels fresh.
Read moreBryn Mawr sits in the middle of the Main Line, where Lancaster Avenue runs past Bryn Mawr College, the hospital, and the shops and restaurants near the train station. The town is spread across Lower Merion, Radnor, and Haverford townships, so homes range from older stone twins and Victorian singles on tree-lined side streets to newer houses and apartments within walking distance of the regional rail line. Many of these homes are well over a century old, with plaster walls, original woodwork, and steep staircases. Cris & Cleber Home Cleaning is a family-run company based in Northeast Philadelphia, and owners Cris and Cleber Santos serve Bryn Mawr with recurring house cleaning, deep cleaning, and move-in and move-out cleaning. The owners are on every job and work from the same room-by-room checklist each visit. Tell us about your home and we will put together an estimate.

The short answer
A lot of Bryn Mawr housing was built when the Main Line first grew around the railroad, and it shows in the details. Stone and stucco twins, Victorian singles, and converted multi-unit houses often have tall baseboards, picture rails, built-in shelving, radiators, and wide wood staircases. Those features are beautiful, but they collect dust in places a quick wipe misses: the top of door frames, the fins of a radiator, the edges of every stair tread. Original hardwood floors need the right products so they are cleaned without being dulled. We clean older homes room by room and give the woodwork, radiators, and stairs hands-on attention, and on a first deep cleaning in a larger home the owners bring one extra helper so nothing gets rushed.
With Bryn Mawr College, Haverford College nearby, and the hospital on Lancaster Avenue, Bryn Mawr has more rentals and more move-ins and move-outs than many Main Line towns. Apartments and rented twins change hands often, especially around the start and end of the school year and the summer, and a landlord or tenant usually needs the place cleaned quickly between occupants. Our move-in and move-out cleaning covers inside cabinets and drawers, appliances, bathrooms, baseboards, and floors so the next person walks into a clean home. If you are a landlord with a unit near the train station or a family moving into a house off Morris Avenue, tell us the date and the size of the home and we will plan around it.
