ABOUT ME AND WHAT I DO:
I have loved the idea of transformation since I was a little girl. That is why I worked to earn my degree in interior design in 2002. I couple my knack for decorative details and space planning with thorough cleaning and organizing. I can use what my clients already have to reimagine spaces resulting in a beautiful outcome.
*I also work with those who are challenged by their clutter in order to pair down their items. I have encountered what some may consider deplorable conditions. This does not intimidate me. I take the proper safety precautions to protect my health. The biggest challenge in these cases is usually the client being forced by family to get help. As with anything, an individual must WANT to be helped. Please see my post "Letter of Introduction To Prospective Client" for more information. MY SYSTEM:
Please Note: Before any meaningful cleaning can occur, clutter must be removed. I use mostly all natural products and microfiber clothes which I provide. This is not only better for the environment, but people and pets as well! My first order of business is a "Deep Clean". This is a detailed process that involves all surface areas with a focus on Bathrooms and Kitchens. I have my own process for removing grease, grime, rust, and hard water stains. These techniques often render appliances and bath enclosures looking like new. Floors and baseboards are hand scrubbed. The Deep Clean is important in order to have a fresh start. Subsequent cleaning takes far less time and maintains the integrity of the original work. I then focus on mouldings, baseboards, woodwork, cobwebs, windowsills, light switches, doors and soiled walls in high traffic areas. Next is dusting and polishing all furniture and decorative items, followed by vacuuming carpets and upholstery (including interior and cushions of seating)
Furniture is moved to access behind and underneath. Finally, all floors are mopped with the appropriate cleaning solution. HOW I WORK:
I work alone, with an efficient and organized approach. The Deep Clean is a requirement for all new clients and those interested in future cleaning. MENU OF ADDITIONAL SERVICES:

What I do is specialized. I have a system and 25 years of experience. Privacy and respect is extremely important to me. Regardless of how things look and feel today we can work together to create a new space. Maybe you've had a disappointing experience. My motto is "If you're picky, I'm your person"! That's because I'm picky myself. I know how cleaning should be done. PROPERLY, and I take pride in my work.
