Professional House Cleaning Tailored to Your DC Home
Every house is different. A Georgetown rowhouse has different needs than a Capitol Hill townhouse or a Bethesda colonial. That's why we don't do cookie-cutter cleaning.
When you book with Solaris, we learn about your home—the layout, the high-traffic areas, the spots that always need extra attention. Then we create a cleaning plan that actually makes sense for how you live.
The result? A home that's consistently clean, week after week. No more marathon cleaning sessions before guests arrive. No more guilt about the dust bunnies under the couch. Just a clean home you can actually relax in.

House Cleaning FAQs
It depends on your home's size and condition. A standard clean for a 3-bedroom home typically takes 2.5-3.5 hours. First-time cleans or deep cleans take longer. We'll give you a time estimate with your quote.
Not at all. Many clients give us a key, garage code, or door code. We're fully insured and background-checked, so you can feel confident whether you're home or not.
We do our best to send consistent teams to each home. You'll get to know your cleaners and they'll get to know your home's specific needs.
We love pets! Just let us know about any animals in the home so we can plan accordingly. We'll be careful with doors and gates.
Picking up clutter—toys, clothes, dishes—helps us clean more thoroughly. The clearer the surfaces, the better we can clean them. But if you don't have time, we'll work around what's there.
No problem. Just give us 24 hours' notice and we'll reschedule at no charge. Life happens—we get it.
