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 moreHavertown is one of the most lived-in parts of Haverford Township. Streets of brick and stone twins sit close to the shops on Brookline Boulevard, center-hall colonials and Dutch colonials line the blocks around Oakmont and Llanerch, and the neighborhoods off Eagle Road and Darby Road are full of families who need their weekends back. Cris & Cleber Home Cleaning serves Havertown homes from Chatham Village to Grassland Park with recurring house cleaning, deep cleaning, and move-in and move-out cleaning. Owners Cris and Cleber Santos are on every job themselves, and each visit follows the same room-by-room checklist, so you always know what was cleaned and who was in your home. Tell us about your house and we will put together an estimate that fits your schedule.

The short answer
A lot of Havertown was built between the 1920s and the 1950s, and the houses show it in the best way. Stone and brick twins share a wall and stack the bedrooms upstairs, so stairs, landings, and banisters collect dust quickly. Colonials and Dutch colonials add formal dining rooms, enclosed porches, and finished third floors with knee walls that are easy to forget. Many homes still have original hardwood, plaster walls, built-in shelving, and radiators, and each of those needs a gentle hand rather than a heavy spray. Basements are common, and the older ones run damp. We clean with the age of the house in mind, using the right product on old wood floors and taking extra time on trim, window sills, and the corners of each stair tread.
Havertown sits in a leafy part of Delaware County, and the trees are part of what makes the neighborhoods so pleasant. They also mean pollen in the spring, leaf grit tracked in all fall, and a lot of dirt at the back door from yards and dogs. Winter brings road salt from Darby Road and Township Line, and it ends up on entry tile and the first few feet of hardwood. Humid summers are hard on older bathrooms and basements, which is why mold and mildew removal is part of our standard checklist. Spring and late summer are popular times for a deep cleaning, before school starts and before the holidays fill the house with guests.
Many Havertown households have two working parents, kids in Haverford Township schools, and a calendar that does not leave room for scrubbing tubs. Working with a family-run company keeps things simple. Cris and Cleber come to your home themselves, and on a bigger first-time cleaning they bring one extra helper so the job gets done right. If you want the kitchen to get extra attention or a home office left alone, you tell the owners directly and it gets done. Recurring visits can be weekly, every two weeks, or monthly, and move-out cleanings are a good fit when a twin or a starter colonial changes hands in the spring market.
