Spring Cleaning in Westwood.
Ready on Arrival

Spring cleaning means something specific in a neighborhood of houses built ninety years ago. Little Holmby and Holmby-Westwood homes have linen closets, built-in cabinetry, and storage rooms that accumulate quietly for years. The annual clean is the one visit that opens those doors instead of dusting past them. Nothing else on the calendar reaches that far back into a house.

The work runs room by room, top to bottom, and it is slower than a standard visit by design. Ceiling fixtures and fan blades, then blind slats and window channels, then closet shelves emptied and wiped, then baseboards along their full run. Upholstered furniture gets vacuumed underneath and behind. In Century Woods and Westwood Hills we finish with the window sills, frames, and tracks, since everything above it has already been disturbed. Inside the oven, inside the refrigerator, inside cabinets and drawers, and interior window cleaning are optional paid add-ons, selected and priced separately before the visit.

Timing follows the household rather than the season. Faculty families book between winter quarter and spring break, when the house is briefly quiet. Corridor owners book before summer travel so they leave a clean unit sealed up rather than a dusty one. Comstock Hills parents book after the last school event, when the calendar finally opens far enough for a full day of work.
