Serving Miami Beach

Cleaning in Miami Beach, done properly.

Condos, beachfront rentals, and short-term turnovers by the water.

Miami Beach is a barrier island plus a string of bay islands, with three kinds of home. South of 23rd Street sit the Art Deco walk-ups around Flamingo Park, most from the 1920s to the early 1940s, with no elevator and street parking only. South of Fifth and the Collins Avenue oceanfront are glass towers with a front desk and service elevator. The bayside belt of North Bay Road, the Venetian Islands and the Sunset Islands is where the single-family houses are. We're based in Coral Gables, with no office on the beach, so our crews cross the MacArthur or Julia Tuttle and plan arrival windows around causeway traffic.

Cleaning here is different because so many homes sit empty part of the year. Nearly a third of Miami Beach housing units were counted vacant in the last Census, mostly seasonal homes, and oceanfront buildings fill from November through April. Our position: the simplest way to protect a closed unit is a monthly visit while you're away. If the summer passed with the place shut, book a deep clean first and go recurring after, because humidity gets into a closed apartment faster than a weekly clean can fix.

Local know-how

What cleaning in Miami Beach actually involves.

Closed-up units and summer mildew

Miami Beach gets roughly 67 inches of rain a year, and a condo left with the AC set high from May to November grows mildew in the grout, on the caulk, inside closets and around the vent covers. A monthly visit during the closed months keeps that in check. If nobody has been in since spring, that's the case for starting with the deep clean and moving to a schedule once the place is reset.

Terrazzo floors and salt-film glass

The Art Deco District holds 960 historic buildings, and some of those apartments still have their original terrazzo. Terrazzo wants a pH-neutral cleaner and no abrasive pads, so tell us the floor type and it goes on your checklist. In the Collins and South of Fifth towers the problem is the opposite: floor-to-ceiling glass and sliding-door tracks that carry a salt film off the ocean. Both go on the checklist we write for your home.

Turnovers for hosts who follow the rules

The City defines a short-term rental as anything under six months and one day, bans it in single-family homes and in many multi-family buildings, and requires hosts to show a Business Tax Receipt and a Resort Tax number in every listing. We clean turnovers for hosts who have those numbers. If you're renting six months or longer to a seasonal tenant, we handle the move-out and move-in cleans between leases as well.

Parking, spring break and timing

Street parking near the walk-ups is metered and scarce, and the crew plans for it. In March the City puts spring-break flat rates on the South Beach garages and doubles nonresident towing, with residents and workers exempt with ID, so we book South Beach jobs for earlier slots that month. If your building has a vendor window of its own, tell us when you request the estimate and we work inside it.

Questions from Miami Beach

Before you book in Miami Beach.

Yes, for hosts whose listing carries the City's Business Tax Receipt and Resort Tax numbers. We work from a turnover checklist written for your unit: beds, bathrooms, kitchen, balcony and the sliding-door tracks that collect sand. Art Basel takes over the Convention Center the first week of December and the whole island books up around it, so lock in turnover dates early.

The season on the beach starts in November, and an arrival deep clean is the right first booking after months closed. From there we move you to a weekly or bi-weekly schedule with the same crew through April. When you head north in spring we do a close-down visit: fridge emptied and wiped, linens stripped, surfaces done, so the unit sits clean until you're back.

For towers on Collins Avenue or in South of Fifth we check in with the concierge or front desk and use the service elevator when the building asks, and we line that up with your property manager beforehand. In the Art Deco walk-ups there's no elevator, so the crew carries everything up and parks on the street. Send us your building's rules with the request and we build them into the arrival window.
