House Cleaning Services in Downers Grove, IL
Help for Downers Grove Homes, Old and New
Downers Grove has more variety in its housing than most western suburbs. Near downtown and the Main Street Metra station, you will find older homes on tree-lined streets. Farther out, there are 1960s and 1970s neighborhoods like Brookeridge, condo and townhome communities, and a steady stream of teardown-and-rebuild new construction. Families come for the schools, the downtown with its Tivoli Theatre, and an easy BNSF train ride into Chicago.
McMaid Home Services helps keep those homes clean. We are a locally owned company that has been cleaning houses in the Chicago suburbs since 1975, and we bring the same trained, uniformed teams to Downers Grove that we send across the northwest suburbs. Pick General Maintenance cleaning weekly, bi-weekly or monthly. Book a Deep Cleaning for a thorough reset, or schedule Move-In / Move-Out cleaning for an empty home. A specially trained inspector supervises every team on the job, so the details on our checklist actually get done.

Older Homes, Teardowns and Train Commutes
Many homes near downtown Downers Grove are decades old. Older houses have more trim, more woodwork and more nooks for dust, and they are often full of original details owners want to keep in good shape. A Deep Cleaning hand-washes baseboards, doors, jambs, sills and switch plates, dusts and polishes wood furniture, and gives bathroom tile special scrubbing. Many owners book it in spring and fall and keep a monthly or bi-weekly maintenance plan in between.
In Brookeridge and other 1960s and 1970s neighborhoods, the big spaces are the family room, the basement and the busy kitchen. Our General Maintenance visits disinfect counters, scrub the sink, clean inside the microwave, wipe appliance and cabinet fronts, and wash floors on hands and knees.
Downers Grove also has a lot of new construction, as older houses are torn down and replaced. Moving into a brand-new home or a freshly renovated one? Our Move-In cleaning goes inside every cabinet, drawer, closet, the oven and the refrigerator before you unpack. Sellers and condo owners downsizing in communities like Cameo book the same service on the way out.
And then there is the commute. With three Metra stops in the village on the BNSF line (Belmont, Main Street and Fairview Avenue), a lot of households here are out the door early and back late. Coming home to a clean house after the train is something our regular customers look forward to. Winter salt and slush near the stations and on village sidewalks also make frequent entryway floor cleaning worth it.

Downers Grove Home Cleaning: Your Questions
Yes. Older homes often have extra woodwork and trim, so many owners start with a Deep Cleaning. It adds hand-washing of baseboards, doors, jambs, sills, frames and switch plates, dusting and polishing wood furniture, and wiping light fixtures and ceiling fans on standard-height ceilings. We do not clean ornate or crystal chandeliers.
If the home is empty, our Move-In cleaning is designed for it. It includes the full maintenance package plus inside cabinets, drawers, the pantry, oven, range hood and refrigerator, inside vanities, medicine cabinets and closets, scrubbed tile grout and shower enclosures, washed hard floors, and vacuumed and edged carpet.
We clean homes throughout Downers Grove, north and south of the BNSF tracks. To find out about scheduling at your address, request a free quote online with your preferred frequency and approximate square footage, or call our office during normal business hours. Our answering service takes messages any time.
Yes. Once your old home is empty, our Move-Out cleaning prepares it for the next owner. Your new condo can get a Move-In cleaning before your furniture arrives, and afterward you can switch to weekly, bi-weekly or monthly General Maintenance cleaning sized to the smaller space.
On each General Maintenance visit we scrub and sanitize the tub, toilet, sink and shower, clean mirrors, polish chrome, wipe baseboards and wash the floor on hands and knees. For built-up soap scum on tile or glass shower doors, a Deep Cleaning adds special scrubbing of those surfaces.
Yes. There is no charge for a quote. It is based on your home’s size, how often you want cleaning and its condition, and you can request one through the Get a Quote form or by phone.
