Professional House Cleaning in Palatine, IL
Help at Home for Busy Palatine Households
Palatine families have a lot going on. Mornings start with the Union Pacific Northwest train out of the downtown station, afternoons run between Fremd and Palatine High School activities, and weekends mean Deer Grove, park district programs or dinner on Northwest Highway. It is hard to fit in a proper scrub of the bathrooms on top of all that.
McMaid Home Services can take it off your list. We are a locally owned company, based next door in Rolling Meadows, and we have been cleaning homes across the north and west suburbs since 1975.
Palatine’s homes run from older houses near downtown to the big postwar subdivisions like Winston Park and the 1960s and 1970s neighborhoods north of Dundee Road, plus many townhomes and condos. Whatever you live in, you can choose General Maintenance cleaning weekly, bi-weekly or monthly, a Deep Cleaning, or Move-In / Move-Out cleaning. Our teams are thoroughly trained and uniformed, and a specially trained inspector supervises each job.

Where We Clean Across Palatine
Palatine’s neighborhoods have real history. Winston Park was proposed in 1957 with nearly 1,900 homes, Hunting Ridge grew up around Fremd High School in the late 1960s, and Pepper Tree was planned southeast of Smith Street and Dundee Road around the same time. Our teams work in all of these, along with the older streets around downtown and the townhome communities in between:
- Winston Park
- Hunting Ridge
- Pepper Tree Farms
- Reseda
- Virginia Lake
- Baldwin
- English Valley
- Willow Wood
- Lake Louise
- Heatherstone
- Downtown Palatine
Palatine Homes and How We Care for Them
Winston Park and other postwar subdivisions are full of split-levels and ranches with several short staircases, which collect dust and crumbs fast. Regular General Maintenance cleaning includes vacuuming stairs, carpets and hard floors, along with dusting moldings, frames and lamps, so those homes stay tidy between visits.
Up in Hunting Ridge and the neighborhoods north of Dundee Road, two-story homes from the late 1960s and 1970s often have original oak trim, multiple full baths and large family rooms. A Deep Cleaning once or twice a year adds hand-washing of woodwork, wiping of light fixtures and ceiling fans on standard-height ceilings, and special scrubbing of bathroom tile and glass shower doors.
Downtown Palatine has added condos and townhomes within walking distance of the Metra station. Commuters there tend to like bi-weekly service that keeps the kitchen and bathrooms in order without giving up an evening.
Palatine also stays popular with families moving in for School Districts 15 and 211, so homes change hands often. Our Move-In / Move-Out cleaning, done once the home is empty, covers the inside of cabinets, drawers, closets, the oven and the refrigerator.
Add in a long winter of salt on the sidewalks and spring mud from the trails at Deer Grove, and entryways and floors always need attention.
