Standard House Cleaning

Most of our Boerum Hill clients start here. A standard house cleaning covers all the basics — wiping down surfaces, cleaning bathrooms, vacuuming floors, mopping, dusting, taking out trash. The kind of clean that makes your whole week feel more manageable.
A lot of people around here work long hours. Between the commute, the job, picking up kids from PS 38 or friends from the Atlantic Terminal area, who has time to scrub a tub? That's where we come in.
Our standard cleaning is built around your schedule. We work around your life, not the other way around.

Deep Cleaning Service

When "Clean Enough" Just Isn't Enough

Sometimes a home needs more than a regular wipe-down. Maybe you haven't had a real cleaning in a while. Maybe you just moved in and the last tenant wasn't exactly tidy. Maybe you're having guests stay over and you want everything to actually be clean, not just look clean.
Our deep cleaning service goes into the places that usually get ignored — inside the oven, behind the toilet, baseboards, window sills, the top of the refrigerator. We scrub grout. We get into corners. We do the work that most people put off for months.
In older Boerum Hill buildings — and there are plenty of them, the beautiful brownstones with the original woodwork and tiles from the 1890s — dust and grime build up in ways you don't always see. Our deep clean gets all of it. If you want to start fresh, this is the service.

Move In/Out Cleaning

Leave the Old Place Clean. Start the New One Right.

Moving in Brooklyn is already stressful. The parking. The elevator wait. The boxes that seem to multiply. The last thing you want to deal with is cleaning a whole apartment on top of it.
Whether you're leaving a rental in Boerum Hill and want your security deposit back, or you're moving into a new place and want to start clean before your furniture arrives — we handle it.
Our move in/out cleaning covers everything from top to bottom. Inside cabinets. Inside the fridge. Inside closets. Bathroom fixtures. Appliances. All of it. We work with landlords, renters, and property managers across Boerum Hill, Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, and the surrounding blocks. If you need a cleaning certificate for your landlord, just ask — we can provide documentation.
Spring Cleaning

The Big Reset Your Home Deserves

Every year, usually around March or April, we start getting calls from all over Boerum Hill. Same story every time: "The winter was brutal, the apartment feels heavy, I just need a real clean."
Brooklyn winters are long. The windows stay shut. Dust settles. Clutter builds. By the time spring hits, your home might be carrying months of indoor life. Our spring cleaning service is a deep, top-to-bottom reset. We clean things you forgot were dirty. We reorganize if you want. We get into every corner of every room and leave your home feeling like a completely different place.
Spring cleaning is also a great time to set up a recurring cleaning schedule so your home stays in shape all year. A lot of our clients do exactly that.

Maid Service

When people ask for a maid service in Boerum Hill, they're usually looking for something specific: a person — or a team — who knows their home, knows their preferences, and takes care of it like it matters. Not just checking boxes.
That's what we train our cleaners to do. Before we send anyone to your home, they go through our process. They know how to clean properly, how to handle delicate surfaces, how to respect your belongings, and how to actually communicate if something comes up.
We're not a gig economy app. We're a real cleaning company with real accountability. You can call us at (212) 920-7872 and talk to an actual person.
Professional Cleaning, Done With Real Care
Recurring Cleaning

Weekly, Bi-Weekly, or Monthly — You Choose

This is the service that changes people's lives. We're not exaggerating.
When you have a cleaning team that comes in on a regular schedule — whether it's every week, every two weeks, or once a month — your home stops feeling like something you have to manage. It just stays clean. You stop dreading Saturdays. You stop looking at the bathroom and sighing.
A lot of our Boerum Hill recurring clients have been with us for years. They started with a one-time clean, saw what it felt like, and never looked back. Recurring clients also get priority scheduling and consistent pricing. The more we clean your home, the more efficient we get — and that's good for everyone.

One Time Cleaning

No Commitment. Just a Clean Home.

Not ready to sign up for a regular schedule? That's completely fine.
Our one time cleaning service is exactly what it sounds like. You book, we come, we clean, you enjoy your home. No contracts, no pressure.
A lot of people use this for specific occasions — a dinner party, a family visit, after a renovation, or just one of those weeks when life got away from you and the apartment got away from you too. You can reach us at (212) 920-7872 or at support@maidfirst.com to book a one time cleaning anytime.
We Know Boerum Hill

Local Expertise That Actually Matters

Boerum Hill is one of those Brooklyn neighborhoods that people talk about like a secret. The brownstones. The quiet blocks off Atlantic. The mix of longtime residents and newer families. The Saturday farmers market crowd. The coffee shops on Smith Street.
We clean homes on Bergen Street and Pacific Street. We work in the newer buildings near the Barclays Center area and in the classic pre-war apartments near Hoyt-Schermerhorn. We understand the layout of Boerum Hill apartments — the long hallways, the high ceilings, the older tile work that needs gentle handling.
We also serve the surrounding areas: Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens, Park Slope, Fort Greene, Clinton Hill, Red Hook, and Downtown Brooklyn. If you're close to Boerum Hill, there's a good chance we clean homes on your block too.

Frequently Asked Questions

Real Questions from Real Boerum Hill Customers

  • What's the difference between your standard cleaning and your deep cleaning for a Boerum Hill apartment?

    A standard cleaning covers all the regular areas — surfaces, bathrooms, kitchen, floors, dusting. A deep cleaning goes further: inside the oven, inside the refrigerator, baseboards, behind furniture, window sills, grout lines, cabinet interiors. If your apartment hasn't had a real top-to-bottom clean in more than a few months, we usually recommend starting with a deep clean.
  • Do I need to be home when you clean?

    Most of our Boerum Hill clients give us a key or door code and aren't home during the cleaning. That's completely normal and works fine. We use a lockbox system for clients who prefer not to give out a key directly. If you want to be home for the first cleaning to walk us through your preferences, that's great too.
  • My building has strict rules about chemical use in common areas. Is that a problem?

    Not at all. We're used to working in buildings with specific rules. We bring our supplies in closed bags and carry out any products we bring in. We won't use anything in hallways or common spaces. Just let us know about any building rules when you book.
  • How far in advance do I need to book a house cleaning in Boerum Hill?

    For one-time cleanings, we typically ask for 48 to 72 hours notice. For move in/out cleanings around the end or beginning of a month — which is peak moving season in Brooklyn — we recommend booking at least a week ahead. Recurring clients get priority scheduling. Call (212) 920-7872 or email support@maidfirst.com to check availability.
  • What if I'm not happy with the cleaning?

    We fix it. If you contact us within 24 hours of your cleaning and something wasn't done right, we'll come back and address it at no charge. We stand behind the work.
  • How close are you to Boerum Hill, and do you service all the streets in the neighborhood?

    We cover all of Boerum Hill, including the blocks near the Boerum Place corridor and out to Fourth Avenue. We also cover the surrounding neighborhoods — Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens, Park Slope, Fort Greene, Clinton Hill, and Downtown Brooklyn. If you're not sure whether we serve your address, call us at (212) 920-7872 and we'll tell you right away.
  • I live in an older pre-war brownstone in Boerum Hill. Do your cleaners know how to handle the old tile work and original hardwood floors?

    Yes, and this comes up a lot. Older Boerum Hill buildings have materials that need a different touch than modern apartments. We train our cleaners to identify what they're working with and use the right products and techniques. We won't use harsh chemicals on original hardwood or abrasive scrubbers on old ceramic tile.
  • What if my building has a strict no-strangers policy or a specific elevator time window?

    This is common in Boerum Hill and nearby neighborhoods. Just let us know when you book. We work with building rules all the time — whether that's a service elevator window, a key fob system, or a front desk sign-in. We'll coordinate with whatever your building requires.
  • How does your pricing work for a one bedroom in Boerum Hill versus a larger brownstone unit?

    Pricing depends on the size of the space, the type of cleaning, and how often you schedule. A one bedroom one bath standard clean typically starts lower than a full-floor brownstone unit with multiple bathrooms. Deep cleans and move-in/out cleans run higher because they take significantly more time. We give you a clear price before we start — no surprises.
  • Is it true that Brooklyn apartments can get dustier in winter because the windows stay shut?

    100 percent true, and it's one of the main reasons we get so many calls for deep cleans in late winter and spring. When windows stay closed for months, indoor dust, pet dander, and cooking particles just build up. By February or March, Boerum Hill apartments can have a visible layer of fine dust on shelves and surfaces. A deep clean before spring is one of the best things you can do for your indoor air quality.
