House Cleaning Service Built for the Way New Yorkers Actually Live

A lot of people call us after they move into a new place in Astoria or Woodside and realize the previous tenants left behind a whole situation. Grease caked inside the oven. Soap scum that's basically calcified on the shower tiles. Dust bunnies the size of small animals living under the radiator. That's when they search for a deep cleaning service in New York City and end up on this page. We're glad they do, because this is exactly the kind of job we were built for. According to the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development, maintaining clean living conditions in residential units is a core part of healthy urban housing — something we take seriously in every home we clean.
A deep cleaning service is not the same as a regular weekly clean. It goes room by room, surface by surface, into places that normal cleaning doesn't touch. Inside cabinets. Behind the toilet. Under the fridge. Along the baseboards. Inside the oven and microwave. If you're not sure whether you need a regular clean or a deep clean, our blog comparing deep cleaning vs. standard cleaning breaks it down clearly. Here's a simple test: when did someone last scrub the grout in your bathroom? If you have to think about it, you probably need a deep clean.

House Cleaning Service Built for the Way New Yorkers Actually Live

Living in New York City means your apartment works harder than most homes anywhere else in the country. You're cooking in a kitchen the size of a hallway. Your windows face a street with constant traffic. You've got window AC units that pull in dust from outside and spread it around all summer. In neighborhoods like Sunnyside or Jackson Heights, the foot traffic outside is nonstop, and that dirt finds its way in. Our house cleaning service accounts for all of that.
We send trained cleaners who know what New York City apartments are actually like. Low ceilings, tight spaces, old radiators, bathtubs instead of showers, no dishwashers, one tiny closet. We bring our own supplies and equipment every time. You don't need to have anything on hand. We show up, we do the work, and we leave your space looking and smelling genuinely clean. Not "we wiped the counters" clean. Actually clean. You can read more about our team on our our cleaners page.
Every house cleaning service booking starts with a conversation about what you need. Some people want a top-to-bottom deep scrub. Others want focus on specific rooms. We're flexible. We work around your schedule and your space, and we treat your home with the same care we'd want someone to treat ours. Ready to get started? Visit our booking page any time.

Maid Service in New York City You Can Actually Count On

We know how hard it is to find reliable help in this city. People cancel. People show up late. People do a halfway job and hope you don't notice. We've heard these stories from almost every new customer we talk to. That's why we built our maid service around one thing: consistency. The same quality every time, whether it's your first booking or your fiftieth. Our guide to finding a reliable maid service in New York City explains exactly what to look for.
Our maid service is popular with people in Long Island City, Elmhurst, and Corona who have busy lives and limited time. You're working long hours, maybe managing kids or elderly family members, and cleaning just keeps falling to the bottom of the list. We get that. Our job is to take that off your plate completely, so your home is always clean even when you don't have a single free hour to deal with it. Our recurring cleaning service makes it easy to stay on top of things.
We offer one-time maid service visits as well as weekly, biweekly, and monthly options. A lot of customers start with a deep clean and then switch to regular maintenance visits to keep things up. That's a great system and we make it easy to set up. You can also change your schedule anytime, because life in New York is unpredictable and we try to be as flexible as possible.
Here's what our deep cleaning service covers in a standard New York City apartment visit:

Apartment Cleaning That Actually Fits Your Space

Apartment cleaning in New York City has its own set of challenges that a company from outside the city just wouldn't get. You might have a studio in Long Island City with the bed six feet from the kitchen. Or a three-bedroom in Flushing where five people are sharing two bathrooms. Our apartment cleaning approach is customized to your actual layout, not some generic checklist built for a house in the suburbs. We assess your space, talk to you about priorities, and get to work in a way that makes sense for where you live. Whether your apartment is 400 square feet or 1,400 square feet, we know how to move through it efficiently and thoroughly. If you're in a compact space, our studio apartment cleaning service is built for exactly that.

Deep Cleaning Service New York City Residents Trust Before and After Big Life Moments

There are certain moments in life when a deep clean becomes urgent. You're about to have a baby and you want every surface in your home to be safe. Your parents are visiting from out of the country and you haven't had time to clean in weeks. You just got through a renovation in your kitchen and there's dust on literally everything — our post-renovation cleaning checklist shows exactly what that process involves. These are the calls we get all the time from people in neighborhoods like Rego Park, Ridgewood, and Maspeth. A deep cleaning service New York City families rely on for these moments needs to be fast, thorough, and trustworthy. That's what we aim to be every single time.
We also do pre-party and post-party cleans, post-Airbnb turnovers, and seasonal deep cleans for people who want to start fresh in spring or get everything in order before the holidays. Whatever the reason, a deep clean from our team means someone went through your home systematically and didn't skip anything. That's a feeling that's hard to put into words until you experience it, but our customers describe it as finally being able to breathe in their own home. See what they say on our reviews page.

Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning: Starting Fresh in New York City

If you've ever moved into a New York City apartment that was supposedly "cleaned" by the previous tenant or the landlord, you know how disappointing that can be. A dirty stove. Sticky cabinet shelves. A bathroom that smells like someone else's life. Our move-in / move-out cleaning service is specifically designed for these situations. We do a complete deep clean of every room, every surface, and every cabinet so you can start in a truly fresh space. For people moving out, we help you get your security deposit back — the New York State Homes and Community Renewal office outlines tenant rights around security deposits, which is exactly why a thorough move-out clean matters so much. We serve renters and landlords across Queens, including Long Island City, Woodside, Sunnyside, Astoria, Jackson Heights, Elmhurst, and beyond. Book us before you hand over the keys or before you start unpacking, and you'll start that next chapter on the right foot. Our NYC move-out cleaning checklist shows exactly what a proper handover involves.
People ask us all the time what makes a deep clean different from the cleaning they do themselves on weekends. The honest answer is time, products, and knowing where to look. Our guide on how often to deep clean your apartment gives good context for how frequently this kind of thorough cleaning is needed.
Most people clean what they can see. We clean what's hiding. The grease that's built up inside the exhaust fan. The mildew starting to form along the bottom of the shower curtain. The dust that's accumulated on the tops of door frames. The sticky residue on cabinet hinges. These are the things that make a home feel not-quite-right even when it looks okay on the surface.
We use professional-grade cleaning products that are safe for your home and family. We carry EPA Safer Choice certified products when possible, and we're happy to use non-toxic or fragrance-free options if you have sensitivities or small children. Just let us know when you book. Our eco-friendly cleaning products guide covers what we use and why.
We've also gotten good at working around New York City apartment quirks. Old tiling that needs gentle products so it doesn't scratch. Parquet floors that can't get too wet. Radiators that collect dust in strange places. Tiny windows with complicated frames. We've seen all of it and we know how to handle it.
The result is a home that doesn't just look clean. It feels clean. The air smells different. You open a cabinet and it's spotless inside. You step into the bathroom and the tiles are actually bright again. That's the difference between a surface wipe-down and a real deep cleaning service New York City residents deserve.

Why We're Different From Other Cleaning Companies in Queens

Local Experience, Real Results, No Surprises
We're based in Long Island City, which means we're genuinely local. We know the neighborhoods, the building types, the parking situations, and the specific challenges of cleaning in a dense urban environment. We're not a franchise that follows a national script. We're a local team that's been doing this work in Queens and greater NYC for years, and we've built our reputation on repeat customers and referrals from people who were happy with what we did. You can learn more about our story on our about us page.
We're also fully transparent about pricing. When you get a quote from us, that's what you pay. No surprise fees, no upsells at the door. We want you to trust us enough to have us back, and that starts with being straight with you from the first conversation. Visit our pricing page for general ranges on all service types.

Trusted by New York City Families and Property Managers Alike

Reliable, Insured, and Ready to Work

Every cleaner on our team is background-checked, trained, and covered by our insurance, as detailed on our insured and bonded cleaning service page. We take care of our people and we take care of your home. Property managers in Long Island City and Astoria call us regularly for turnover cleans between tenants, because they know we'll leave the unit in showing condition. Families book us because they feel comfortable having us in their space. We earn that trust by doing the work right and communicating clearly. If something comes up during a job, we tell you. If we find something that needs attention, we flag it. We act like the professionals we are, because this is our business and your home, and both of those things matter.

Our Commitment to Green and Safe Cleaning in NYC

Cleaning products in New York City apartments need to be effective without being harsh, especially in smaller spaces where there's less ventilation. We prioritize products that are EPA Safer Choice certified and free from harsh chemical residues wherever we can. For families with kids, pets, or anyone with respiratory sensitivities, we offer fragrance-free and low-VOC cleaning options through our eco-friendly cleaning service. New York State has its own standards around cleaning product safety and we follow them closely. We also minimize single-use plastic and waste in how we operate, because the city has enough of that already. If you want to know exactly what products we're using in your home, just ask. We'll tell you. No mystery chemicals, no runaround.

Deep Cleaning for Every Type of New York City Home

Studios, One-Bedrooms, Lofts, and Multi-Family Units

We've cleaned it all. Tiny studios in Long Island City where the kitchen and living room are the same room. Loft conversions in Maspeth with exposed brick that collects dust. Two-bedroom apartments in Flushing shared by extended family. Three-story brownstones in Ridgewood that haven't had a deep clean in years. Our pricing is based on the size and condition of your space, not a flat rate that doesn't make sense for a studio or a ridiculously high fee for a larger home. We'll give you an honest quote based on what we see and what you need, and we'll get it done right regardless of the layout. We also clean lofts, condos, and townhouses throughout the city.

What to Expect on the Day of Your Deep Clean

On the day of your appointment, our team shows up on time with all supplies and equipment. You don't need to provide anything. We'll walk through the space with you briefly at the start if you want, or you can leave us to work if you have somewhere to be. Most deep cleans for a standard New York City apartment take between three and six hours depending on size and condition. When we're done, we'll do a final walk-through with you if you're available. We want you to be satisfied before we leave, and if there's anything you want us to take another look at, we'll do it right then. No extra charge for doing the job right. Have questions before you book? Our FAQ page covers the most common ones.

What Our Customers in New York City Are Saying
Five black stars in a row on a white background
I moved into a place in Astoria that was supposed to be cleaned before I arrived. It was not. I called Apartment Cleaning Service LIC and they came out two days later and did a full deep clean. The oven alone took them an hour and it looked brand new when they were done. I don't think I've ever been this happy with a service in the city.

We used them for a move-out clean in Long Island City and got our full security deposit back. The landlord actually commented on how well the apartment was cleaned. Worth every penny and we'll use them again at our new place.

I have a one-bedroom in Jackson Heights and I booked a deep clean after I had guests staying for two weeks. The bathroom and kitchen were genuinely transformed. I signed up for monthly maintenance cleanings after that. The team is professional and fast.

Called them last minute before a family visit and they fit me in. Did a thorough job in a Flushing apartment that had been a little neglected. My mom, who is very particular about cleanliness, walked in and said it smelled clean. That's the highest compliment she gives.

FAQs

Common Questions About Deep Cleaning Service in New York City. For more answers, visit our full FAQ page.
How is a deep cleaning service different from a regular cleaning in New York City?
A regular cleaning covers the basics: wiping counters, mopping floors, cleaning the toilet and sink. A deep cleaning service goes much further. We clean inside the oven, behind the refrigerator, inside cabinets, along baseboards, inside the shower grout, and all the spots that don't get touched in a routine visit. Our blog comparing deep cleaning vs. standard cleaning breaks down exactly what each service includes.

How much does a deep cleaning service cost in New York City?
Pricing depends on the size and condition of your apartment. A studio in Long Island City with a moderate amount of buildup will cost less than a three-bedroom in Flushing that hasn't been deep cleaned in years. We give every customer a clear quote before we book anything. There are no surprise fees or add-ons once we arrive. Visit our pricing page for general ranges, or read our post on what apartment cleaning costs in New York City. Call us at +1 212-812-9420 for a free estimate.
Black five-point star icon on a white background
Do I need to be home during the deep cleaning?
You don't have to be home during the clean, but you're welcome to stay if you prefer. Many of our customers in Woodside, Sunnyside, and Astoria leave us a key or building access and go about their day. We're background-checked and fully insured per our insured and bonded cleaning service page, and we'll send you a message when we're done. If you'd like a walk-through at the end, just let us know and we'll coordinate the timing.
Black five-point star icon on a white background
How long does a deep cleaning service take in a New York City apartment?
Most apartments take between three and six hours. A studio or one-bedroom is usually on the shorter end. A larger apartment, or one that hasn't been deep cleaned in a while, can take longer. We don't rush. We work through every room until it's done right. We'll give you a realistic time estimate when you book so you can plan around it.
Black five-point star icon on a white background
Do you use safe cleaning products for kids and pets?
Yes. We carry EPA Safer Choice certified products and offer fragrance-free and low-VOC options for households with children, pets, or anyone with sensitivities. New York City apartments don't always have great ventilation, so we're careful about what we use inside them. Just mention your preferences when you book and we'll come prepared with the right supplies. Our pet-friendly cleaning service is designed with exactly these concerns in mind.
Black five-point star icon on a white background
Can I book a same-week deep cleaning service in New York City?
Often, yes. We try to accommodate urgent bookings whenever we can, especially for move-out situations with hard deadlines or unexpected events that require a fast turnaround. We're based right in Long Island City, so we have good access to most of Queens and can reach Manhattan and Brooklyn without a long lead time. Check our same-day cleaning service page or call us directly at +1 212-812-9420 to check availability for your area.
