Cleaning details and local conditions
Des Moines has 12,528 housing units, with 7,052 of these being detached single-family houses. This means that 56.3% of units are stand-alone homes, often requiring direct ground-level access. However, 4,693 units are renter-occupied, and 6.6% of the housing units were built before 1950, with 15.6% built in 2000 or later. This mix of older and newer construction, alongside the prevalence of single-family homes, influences how cleaning appointments are scoped. For instance, multi-story detached homes may involve stairs, while other unit types might require elevator access.
With 11,925 occupied units in the city and an average household size of 2.68 people, cleaning plans are tailored to the specific layout and size of each residence. The median year of construction for housing units is 1974, indicating a range of architectural styles and cleaning needs across the city's properties.

Frequently asked questions
Most homes in Des Moines are apartments — how does that change the booking?
Only 56.3% of units in Des Moines are detached houses (US Census Bureau ACS 5-Year 2024 (2020-2024), Table B25024), so we plan for building access: entry codes, stairs or elevator, and where a crew can leave equipment. Add those details when you book and the crew arrives ready rather than waiting downstairs.
Does the age of the housing in Des Moines affect a deep clean?
Yes — the median home in Des Moines was built in 1974 and 6.6% of units date from before 1950 (US Census Bureau ACS 5-Year 2024 (2020-2024), Table B25035; US Census Bureau ACS 5-Year 2024 (2020-2024), Table B25034). Older homes bring painted trim, original wood floors, radiator surrounds and grouted tile that all take longer than newer surfaces. Say what you have and we set a realistic time on the job rather than rushing it.
Can you clean between tenancies in Des Moines?
Yes. 4,693 occupied units in Des Moines are rented (US Census Bureau ACS 5-Year 2024 (2020-2024), Table B25003), so end-of-lease and turnover cleans are routine here. Book for the day after the keys come back and we work to an empty-property checklist.
How long does a clean take for a typical Des Moines household?
Average household size in Des Moines is 2.68 people (US Census Bureau ACS 5-Year 2024 (2020-2024), Table B25010), which in practice means family-sized kitchens, more bathrooms in use and more laundry surfaces than a single-occupant flat. A standard clean at that size is usually a half day; a first deep clean is longer.
How much of Des Moines do you actually cover?
All of it. Des Moines has 32,823 residents across 12,528 housing units (US Census Bureau ACS 5-Year 2024 (2020-2024), Table B01003; US Census Bureau ACS 5-Year 2024 (2020-2024), Table B25024) — a small enough area that we take bookings anywhere inside it rather than only on selected streets.
What do you need to know before a first visit in Des Moines?
How to get in, whether there is off-street parking, whether there are pets in the home, and anything you would rather we left alone. Those four answers decide the arrival window and how the crew packs the van.
Do you cover the rest of King County?
We take bookings across King County and list every area we cover on the county page — if an area is not listed, we are not open there yet rather than quietly taking the job.
