House Cleaning Services in Arlington Heights, IL
From Downtown Condos to Stonegate Tudors
Arlington Heights is a big village with a lot of different homes in it. There are 1920s Tudors near downtown, post-war ranches and split-levels on the north side, townhomes around Lake Arlington, and newer condo towers within a short walk of the Metra platform. Each one gets dusty in its own way, and each one deserves a cleaning crew that pays attention.
McMaid Home Services is a locally owned company based just west of here in Rolling Meadows. Families across the northwest suburbs have trusted us with their homes since 1975, so Arlington Heights is very much home turf for our teams.
We offer three kinds of service. General maintenance cleaning keeps your kitchen, bathrooms and living spaces in order on a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly schedule. Deep cleaning gets into the woodwork, ceiling fans, light fixtures and the dust that collects behind furniture. Move-in and move-out cleaning covers the inside of cabinets, closets, the oven and the refrigerator once the rooms are empty. Tell us about your house and how often you want help, and we will put together a free quote.

Cleaning Homes the Arlington Heights Way
Much of the village was built between the 1950s and 1970s, so a lot of homes here have original hardwood under the carpet, built-in shelves, and plenty of trim. Those details look great, but they hold dust. A deep cleaning, where woodwork, door jambs, switch plates and baseboards are washed by hand, is a good reset before you start regular maintenance visits.
Many houses near downtown and in Scarsdale have been rebuilt or added onto. Bigger kitchens, extra bathrooms and open stairways all mean more surfaces to look after. A bi-weekly maintenance plan works well here: floors washed on hands and knees, bathrooms scrubbed and sanitized, and stairs vacuumed.
Downtown has a lot of commuters living in condos and townhomes close to the Union Pacific Northwest line, with stations at Arlington Heights and Arlington Park. If you leave on an early train and get home after dark, a monthly or bi-weekly visit means one less job on Saturday.
Arlington Heights is also a popular place to buy. When a house sells, the seller wants to leave it clean and the buyer wants to start fresh. Our move-in and move-out cleaning covers the inside of cabinets, drawers, the oven, the refrigerator, closet shelves and the grout in tiled showers.
Winter adds its own work. Road salt from Arlington Heights Road and Euclid Avenue gets tracked onto entry tile and hallway carpet. Regular vacuuming and hard-floor washing keeps that grit from wearing down your floors.

Questions Arlington Heights Homeowners Ask Us
Yes. These neighborhoods have a lot of molding, built-ins and older hardwood, and our deep cleaning is designed for that. Teams hand-wash baseboards, doors, jambs, sills, frames and switch plates, dust and polish wood furniture, and wipe light fixtures and ceiling fans on standard-height ceilings. After that, a maintenance schedule keeps the dust from building back up.
Yes. Move-out cleaning is meant for empty homes. Along with our standard maintenance checklist, teams clean inside cabinets and drawers, the pantry, the oven and range hood, the refrigerator, vanities and medicine cabinets, and closet shelves. They also scrub tile grout and treat mildew so the house is ready for the next owner.
We clean all of them. Arlington Heights has condo buildings downtown and townhome communities like Lake Arlington Towne, and we visit those just as often as single-family homes. Your quote depends on the square footage, how often you want service and the condition of the home, so a smaller unit gets a quote that fits its size.
You can choose weekly, bi-weekly or monthly maintenance cleaning. Busy families with kids and pets in and out tend to pick weekly or bi-weekly. Smaller households often find monthly is enough. If you are not sure, tell us how your home is used and we can help you pick a schedule when we prepare your quote.
A regular maintenance visit covers kitchens, bathrooms, dusting, vacuuming and floors. A deep cleaning includes all of that plus walls and standard-height ceilings dusted, woodwork washed by hand, upholstered furniture vacuumed, the area under and behind safely movable furniture vacuumed, and the inside of the refrigerator cleaned. Many people book a deep cleaning first and then switch to maintenance.
