Cleaning

Whatever level of cleaning you find yourself needing, GIST has you covered. Whether it's...

​

  • The daily sweep, mop and dust to keep things looking nice.

  • Picking up & tidying - dishes, laundry, the kids' million toys, or any of the other many sources of clutter.

  • Scrubbing and sanitizing bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, and other pesky high-germ places.

  • The whole nine yards, from the windowsills to the baseboards.

  • Deep cleaning projects you never have time for: the inside of your fridge, under the furniture, those hard water stains in the shower. 

  • "Rescue cleaning" - for when the mess is too big, and it's time for some help. 

​

Cleaning services are available on a regular or semi-regular basis that works for you, with options for as-needed or one-time/emergency cleaning. To set up a meeting to assess your cleaning needs, contact us here! For full pricing, see below.

"White Glove" and Move-Out Cleaning

Cleaning everything in your home to landlord or buyer standards is one of the worst parts of moving.

Or maybe you're not moving, but facing some other situation that requires inspection-level cleanliness. (Maybe the CEO of your dad's Fortune 500 company is coming to dinner, you never know.) 

 

If you'd like to not have to worry about hours and hours of painstaking cleaning, let GIST take over for you. ​We're talking about:

  • Cleaning inside and under major appliances; ovens, refrigerators, washers & dryers, etc.

  • Scrubbing walls, cabinets and baseboards. 

  • Dusting & vacuuming out heating & air vents. 

  • Touch-up painting/whitewashing, and other misc. handy tasks.

  • Minor mold or mildew elimination.

White Glove cleaning rates start at $40/hour, depending on the home and workload in question.

​

Add-Ons

  • Tidying. Don't have time to tidy before GIST gets there? Struggle with daily clutter? No worries! Let us pick up after you. (Comes with a 100% "I'm not your mother"-free guarantee!) Includes pick-up of dishes, toys, clothes, everyday pet chaos, movies, books, papers, and other clutter. (Also includes labelled put-away bins upon client request.) +$2/hour

  • Washing. Many people's biggest cleaning struggle is "the washing". This add-on includes washing dishes and/or laundry to your specifications and preferences. +$3/hour (or $2/hour if added alongside Tidying.)

  • Pet Care. Busy work schedule, or going out of town for a few days? GIST can feed, walk, clean up after, and/or play with your fur/scale/water babies. $10/check-in ($15 for non-clients.)

  • Pet Poop Cleanup. Got a yard? Got a dog (or two or three?)  Then this is a service you probably need. $20/occurrence.

"Rescue Cleaning"

Most of us have gone through times in our lives where, for one reason or another, the mess just grows and grows beyond our control. Some of us have rarely even known a life without being surrounded by constant mess. If you find yourself drowning in, drained and overwhelmed by, or embarrassed about your mess: let GIST help dig you out. With an individualized approach and our zero-shame Inclusivity & Understanding policy, you're in safe hands. ​

Working together, we will:

  • Assess the mess. Sometimes the hardest part is figuring out where to even start. We'll talk through what's causing you the most daily stress, what your most urgent needs are, and what the root causes of it are. 

  • Make a plan. Taking the results of our assessment into account, we'll take a look at your budget, schedule, and where to start making a sustainable difference as we move into the project. 

  • Get you to where you want to be. There is nothing quite like the relief of finally being free of a mess. Maybe we've managed to get the whole mess taken care of, and you can start anew; or maybe we haven't, but we have at least gotten you to a place where you feel like you can breathe again. Either way, the goal is to help you regain a sense of control, peace, and confidence.

  • Get you organized. Rescue cleaning - especially if your main problem is clutter - is often most effective when paired with our organization services. Rescue Cleaning can be price-packaged with our organization services; click here to check it out!

 

Rates start at $40/hour; may vary depending on individual needs, severity of mess, and level of final cleanliness you're looking for. If you're ready to Get Into Stuff Together, contact us here to set up a consultation.
