How much does house cleaning cost in Pelham Bay?

I live on one floor of a three-family house. Can I book just my floor?

Yes. Pelham Bay has close to 300 three-family houses, and a floor in one of them books like any apartment: you pick its rooms, bathrooms and kitchen. The stairs and the basement are extras, added only if you want them cleaned.

Do you clean apartments in the towers and the six-story buildings?

Yes. Pelham Bay has about forty elevator buildings. Most are six stories, many of them from the 1920s and 1930s, and six are towers of 11 to 18 stories put up in the 1960s, on Mulford Avenue, Mayflower Avenue, Middletown Road, Bruckner Boulevard and Hutchinson River Parkway East. An apartment books by its rooms, the way a house does.

Can I book a single deep cleaning in Pelham Bay?

Yes. In the plan builder pick Just once, which is one visit with no plan behind it, and add Deep clean if the home needs more than a regular clean. The date is yours to choose when you book.
