Fastest way: fill out the free-quote form on the site or text (703) 340-9439. I usually reply within a few hours during business days. First visit starts with a 15-minute walkthrough so I can see your home and build the priority checklist, that walkthrough is free whether you book us or not.
For a first-time deep clean, a week’s notice is comfortable. Recurring clients get set schedules (bi-weekly bookings are the easiest to keep). For emergencies, pre-listing walkthroughs, post-event cleanup, or a family visit you weren’t expecting, call me and I’ll see what’s possible.
Yes, text or call, 48 hours ahead if possible. Life happens; we don’t charge for changes made with reasonable notice. If we show up and can’t get in, that’s a different story (there’s a small charge), so let me know if plans shift.
Three easy ways: Call 703.340.9439 during business hours. Email booking@dvlcleaninggroup.com with your details. Use the online booking form on our website. We respond to all requests within 24 hours, usually much faster.
For most homes, once a year is a great rhythm. Homes with pets, kids, or allergies often benefit from twice a year. If you are not sure, give us a call and we will give you honest advice based on your home.
Usually between four and six hours for most carpets. If we are cleaning during a humid week or if the carpet is very thick, it can take a bit longer. We open windows and use fans if it helps. You can walk on damp carpet in socks right away, but wait until it is fully dry to put furniture back.
Yes! We use an enzyme treatment that breaks down pet urine at the source. It does not just cover up the smell, it actually removes it. For older or heavier stains, we can talk about the best approach when we walk through your home.
Absolutely. We clean area rugs on site or offer pickup and delivery for delicate rugs. We also clean upholstered furniture including couches, chairs, and ottomans. Bundle a couple of things together and we will give you our best price.
Yes! All our standard products are kid safe and pet safe. If anyone in your home has severe allergies or asthma, we can talk through fragrance free and eco friendly options that work just as well.
We really care about your space and building a good relationship with you. You’ll have a main contact person who knows your facility well. Many of our clients and staff have been with us for years because we treat people right. We’re always learning new cleaning methods. Most importantly, we clean your space the way we would want our own spaces cleaned – with attention to details others might miss. When you choose us, you can stop worrying about cleaning and focus on your business.
We’re very careful with your keys and security information. We keep your keys in a secure place when we’re not using them. We track who has access to your building. Our staff signs agreements promising to keep your information private. We can work with regular keys, access cards, or security codes – whatever system you have. Your security is important to us.
We use good quality cleaning tools and products. Our vacuums have special filters that help clean the air while we vacuum. We have different machines for different floor types. We also have special sprayers that disinfect large areas quickly. We choose our cleaning products based on what works best for your space – from stronger disinfectants to gentler green options. We’re always looking for better products to use.
Yes! We know messes can happen anytime. If you have an unexpected spill, water damage, or last-minute cleaning need, just call us. Our emergency team is available 24/7 for our regular clients. We’ll be there quickly to handle your cleaning emergency so you can get back to business.
We keep billing simple! You can pay monthly, every two weeks, or weekly – whatever works best for you. Our bills clearly show what services we did. You can pay by credit card, bank transfer, or check. We’ll work with your accounting team to set up a payment schedule that’s convenient for you.
We’re careful about who joins our team. We do background checks and call references before hiring anyone. New team members get thorough training on how to use cleaning products safely and how to clean different types of spaces properly. We keep training our team on new cleaning methods. Most importantly, we treat our team with respect, and they take pride in doing good work for you.
Yes! We know every business is different. When you start with us, we’ll walk through your space with you to understand what you need. We’ll look at your busy areas, talk about your schedule, and create a cleaning plan just for you. As things change for your business, we can change our cleaning plan too.
We check our work carefully to make sure it’s done right. Our supervisors do regular spot checks, and we use simple digital tools to track how well we’re cleaning. We also like to hear what you think, so we’ll check in with you often. If something isn’t right, just tell us and we’ll fix it right away.
We clean all kinds of business spaces! This includes offices, medical buildings, schools, stores, warehouses, and hotels. Whether you have a small shop or a big office building, we can help keep it clean and looking great.
Most Alexandria homes benefit from a deep cleaning two to four times per year, typically ahead of seasons changing, after the holidays, and any time the home has been through heavy use. Homes with pets, young children, or family members with allergies often benefit from more frequent deep cleaning. During your free 15-minute consultation, owner Leila Flores will help you decide on the right frequency for your home.
A deep cleaning is a complete top-to-bottom reset that reaches the details a standard cleaning skips, baseboards, ceiling fans, tops of cabinets, inside appliances, tile grout, blinds, window tracks, and the corners of every room. Regular recurring cleaning maintains that reset with an efficient surface-focused visit. Most clients start with a one-time deep clean and then transition to recurring service.
A DVL deep cleaning typically takes between 4 and 8 hours depending on your home’s size, condition, and any add-ons. A 2-bedroom Alexandria condo usually falls at the shorter end; a 5-bedroom home with pets and multiple bathrooms sits at the longer end. Every deep clean is priced flat after a free consultation so you know the timeline before we begin.
Most of our deep cleaning clients are not home during service, they leave a key or door code and return to a spotless home. If it’s your first deep clean with us, owner Leila will walk your home with you before starting so she can build a priority list that reflects your specific home. After that first visit, most clients transition to a hands-off arrangement.
A DVL deep cleaning covers every room top to bottom: baseboards and door frames dusted and wiped, ceiling fans and light fixtures dusted, blinds and window tracks cleaned, interior windows and mirrors polished, kitchen deep-cleaned including inside the oven and refrigerator, bathrooms disinfected including grout and fixtures, and all floors detailed. Optional add-ons include interior windows, deep upholstery cleaning, and inside cabinet detailing.
We recommend booking a move-out cleaning 5–10 days in advance so we can schedule the right team and time slot. Same-day and next-day cleanings are sometimes available depending on team availability, call (703) 340-9439 to check. Time-sensitive PCS or corporate relocations should book as early as possible.
Yes. Every DVL move-out cleaning includes interior appliance cleaning, oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, and range hood, as part of the base service. That’s exactly what landlords and property managers look for during the final walk-through. Our current move-out special even includes a free deep interior detail of the fridge and oven when combined with a full move-out clean.
Yes, that’s exactly what our move-out cleaning is designed for. We know what property managers look for during walk-throughs across Alexandria, Arlington, and Northern Virginia because we’re a preferred vendor for several local real estate teams. Our move-out cleaning covers every surface, appliance interior, and detail that typically shows up on landlord damage checklists.
Before. Move-in cleaning is significantly more thorough when the property is empty, we can clean baseboards, corners, closet interiors, and appliance interiors without working around furniture. Book your move-in cleaning 1–2 days before your movers arrive so everything is fresh when your belongings are placed.
Yes. DVL brings all professional equipment and cleaning products included in the flat price, there’s nothing for you to buy, borrow, or coordinate. All of our products are safe for pets, kids, and every surface type we work on.
Mostly plant-based, EPA Safer-Choice products, nothing that leaves a chemical film on your counters or a headache in your kitchen. If you’re pregnant, have young kids, pets with allergies, or newly refinished floors, tell me at the walkthrough and I’ll swap the specifics on your priority sheet. I’ve been in enough Alexandria homes to know that “green” has to actually clean, the ones I stock do both.
Text me within 24 hours and we’ll come back and fix it, no invoice, no debate. In 15+ years I’ve almost never had to send a team twice, but when it happens I want to know so I can fix the process, not just the spot. That’s on me.
That’s basically how every clean starts here, with a walkthrough where you tell me what actually matters to you. Some clients want the fridge interior every visit; some don’t want us touching the china cabinet at all. Every home builds its own checklist, and we run it every time, same team, same list, no guessing.
Yes, professional-grade vacuums, microfiber, eco products, everything. You don’t need to stock a thing. If you’d rather we use your products (allergies, an heirloom rug, refinished floors), leave them out and I’ll flag it on the priority sheet so the team uses yours before ours.
Most families choose bi-weekly service for the perfect balance of cleanliness and budget. Weekly is ideal for busy households with children and pets, while monthly works well for smaller homes or those who maintain basic cleaning between professional visits.
Yes, we handle everything from moderate clutter to full-scope hoarding cleanups, always confidentially. First visit is a private walkthrough with just me and the client (or family member) so nobody feels judged. Then we build a phased plan: sort, clean, deep clean, follow-up. We’ve done this for 15+ years across Northern Virginia; there’s nothing that shocks us.
Slowly, gently, and on their schedule. We arrive at times that work around medication and rest windows, keep the same two-person team every visit so it’s familiar faces, and never move personal items without asking. Many of our elderly clients have been with us five years or more, that continuity matters as much as the clean does.
For anything beyond standard household disinfection, think post-flu, extended illness recovery, post-incident cleanup, we combine our disinfectant service with specialized PPE and disposal protocols. We’re not a crime-scene cleanup company, but for medical recoveries and infectious cleanups in a home, we’ve got the equipment and the training.
Yes, same-day or next-morning cleanups for graduations, birthdays, holiday gatherings, weddings at home. Give us the date when you book and we’ll block the slot. We clean the whole space, not just the visible stuff, so you wake up to a house that doesn’t remind you of last night.
We do, with photo documentation before and after. Several Alexandria landlords have us on rotation because we deliver units that pass tenant walkthroughs the first time. If there are lease-specific requirements (interior appliances, garage, exterior windows), tell me at booking and I’ll price them into the flat rate.
Most of our long-term clients aren’t. They give us a code, an alarm sequence, and a place to leave the mail. We’re bonded, insured, and background-checked, and the same team shows up every visit, so it’s the same faces you’d recognize on your Ring camera. Feel free to be home the first time so we can walk through together.
We bring professional-grade cleaning supplies and equipment to each job. However, if you prefer eco-friendly or specialty products for your rental, we’re happy to accommodate,just let us know in advance.
We’ll inform you immediately if we encounter excessive mess or damage. Depending on the situation, additional cleaning time (and associated costs) may be required. We’ll document the condition with photos to help with any damage claims or guest disputes.
Yes, we can arrange decorative towels, set up welcome baskets, and ensure the property looks inviting. Just let us know the specific details of how you’d like everything arranged.
We base our pricing on the size of the property, the number of bedrooms/bathrooms, and the complexity of cleaning. We’ll provide a customized quote once we have all the necessary details about your rental.
For a rental turnover, high-touch is the whole game, door handles, light switches, remotes, thermostats, faucets, headboards. We use EPA-registered disinfectants with a real dwell time (not a spray-and-wipe), and every unit gets photos to your phone before we lock up. Guest reviews about “cleanliness” are what keep you booked, so we treat them like the signal they are.
We do our best to schedule same-day turnovers if time permits. For last-minute bookings, please let us know as soon as possible so we can adjust our schedule and ensure the rental is properly cleaned before guests arrive.
If we notice broken items, leaks, or other issues, we immediately document them with photos and notify you (or the property manager) so you can decide on next steps, such as repairs or replacement before the next guest arrives.
We can restock these items if requested and if they’re provided by the property owner or included in your supply plan. We’ll let you know if stocks are running low so you can replenish in a timely manner.
Our cleaners follow a detailed checklist that includes disinfecting high-touch areas, making the beds with fresh linens, restocking toiletries, and doing a final walkthrough to spot any missing items or potential issues.
Yes, we typically wash and change all bed linens and towels. If on-site laundry isn’t available or the turnaround time is too short, we can arrange off-site laundry services, although extra fees may apply.
Professional-grade fogging equipment and hospital-strength hydrogen peroxide formulations aren’t available to consumers. Our training ensures proper application, coverage, and safety protocols. The results are measurably better than consumer-grade disinfectant sprays or foggers.
Absolutely. Unlike air fresheners that mask smells, our fog destroys the bacteria causing pet odors. This includes urine smells in carpets, general pet odors in upholstery, and other stubborn animal-related scents.
Yes, the hydrogen peroxide fog kills mold spores and neutralizes odors associated with mildew. For severe mold infestations, additional remediation work might be needed, but our disinfection service prevents mold growth and eliminates surface contamination.
This depends on your needs. After illness or before moving in, one treatment is often sufficient. Businesses like schools, medical offices, and restaurants benefit from regular monthly or quarterly disinfection. We’ll help you determine the right schedule based on your property type and concerns.
Yes, once the treatment is complete and the space is ventilated. The hydrogen peroxide breaks down completely into water and oxygen, leaving no chemical irritants or residues that trigger respiratory issues. We do recommend people and pets leave during the active treatment.
Spray disinfectants only clean surfaces you can reach and see. Our fog penetrates everywhere the air goes, including hidden spaces under furniture, inside upholstery, in air vents, and on ceiling surfaces. The coverage is complete, not just surface-level.
No. The hydrogen peroxide fog is safe for all common household and office items. Electronics don’t need to be removed or covered. Important documents won’t be damaged. Fabrics and furniture are unaffected.
The space is safe to reoccupy shortly after treatment, typically within 30-60 minutes depending on room size and ventilation. The hydrogen peroxide breaks down into water and oxygen, leaving no harmful residues behind.
Not really! Some folks like to sort a few things ahead of time, and that is totally fine. But we come ready to move boxes, shelves, and anything else that needs to be shifted. Just tell us what stays and what goes, and we take care of the rest.
Most residential garages take between three and six hours depending on size and how much stuff is inside. When you book, we will ask a few quick questions to give you a fair time estimate. That way you know what to expect.
Yes! We love a good challenge. Whether it is years of dust, oil stains on the concrete, or a full deep clean before selling your home, we bring the right tools and the right attitude. Nothing shocks us after fifteen years on the job.
Absolutely. Light organizing is included in most of our garage cleans. If you want a bigger organizational overhaul with new bins or shelving, let us know when you book and we will build that into your quote.
Yes! We use pet safe and kid safe products by default. If you have specific sensitivities or want us to use particular products, just leave a note when you book. Your family comes first.
Extensively, Old Town is our biggest concentration. Row houses have their quirks (original hardwoods, narrow stairs, historic bathroom tile) and we know each one. Our team is trained on the materials before working in Old Town homes.
All of them. Condo cleaning has specific realities, HOA access, elevator coordination, shared trash rooms, uniform-required buildings, and we work within them. We coordinate with concierges, arrive on schedule, and never leave anything in shared hallways.
Every home is different, so every quote is different. After the 15-minute walkthrough, I’ll give you a flat rate based on square footage, condition, and how much detail you want. Alexandria homes range widely, from 900 sq ft Old Town flats to 4,000 sq ft West End colonials, so we don’t publish a rate card. You’ll always know the price before we start.
Mostly plant-based, EPA Safer-Choice products, nothing that leaves a chemical film on your counters or a headache in your kitchen. If you’re pregnant, have young kids, pets with allergies, or newly refinished floors, tell me at the walkthrough and I’ll swap the specifics on your priority sheet. I’ve been in enough Alexandria homes to know that “green” has to actually clean, the ones I stock do both.
We care about the environment and your health. We use earth-friendly cleaning products that work well but don’t have harsh chemicals. Our special cleaning cloths help us use less water and fewer chemicals. We also have energy-saving equipment and try to reduce waste. If your building is working on green certification, we can help with that too.
Usually within a week, sometimes same-week for Old Town, Del Ray, or Rosemont because we’re already routing through those neighborhoods. Realtor emergency clean before a Sunday open house? Call me and I’ll figure it out.
Yes. We carry full liability insurance and are bonded. This protects your property and gives you peace of mind. Any legitimate Virginia cleaning company should have proper insurance. Always ask before hiring any service provider.
Yes. Most of our Virginia residential clients book weekly or bi-weekly cleanings. Regular service keeps your home consistently clean and costs less per visit than one-time cleanings. We lock in your preferred day and time. Same team cleans your home each visit when possible.
We’ve operated in the DMV for over 15 years. We expanded our hours based on customer requests. We guarantee our work. We use eco-friendly products. We train our teams on both residential and commercial protocols. You get experienced cleaners, not whoever showed up that day.
Pricing depends on square footage, service type, and cleaning frequency. Most standard residential cleanings start at $120-150. Deep cleanings and move-out services cost more due to extra labor. Call 703.340.9439 or email booking@dvlcleaninggroup.com for an exact quote based on your specific needs.
We serve all of Northern Virginia, with main offices in Manassas and Alexandria. Our coverage includes Fairfax County, Prince William County, Arlington County, and Loudoun County. If you’re in the DMV area, call 703.340.9439 to confirm we serve your specific location.
Yes. Our full whole-room aerosolized hydrogen peroxide disinfectant service is available across all Maryland service areas. Post-illness home resets, pre-guest preparation for immunocompromised visitors, and commercial disinfection for offices and hospitality all covered.
Reach out for a free consultation. Our team will discuss your specific needs, schedule a walk-through of your home or business, and provide a written quote. First-time cleanings typically begin within 3-7 days. Same-day emergency service available for confirmed situations.
Yes. We carry Maryland state business registration, full liability insurance covering both Virginia and Maryland operations, and bonded coverage. Certificates of insurance are available on request. Every team member also passes annual background checks. We take the trust our clients place in us seriously.
Same team-based approach. Same standards. Same equipment. Same green cleaning options. Same 24-hour come-back guarantee. The only difference is geography. We deliver identical service quality across the Potomac.
We currently serve Bethesda, Cabin John, Chevy Chase, Oxon Hill, Fort Washington, and National Harbor. If you are in an adjacent Maryland community and interested in our service, please reach out. We evaluate expansion based on client demand.
Absolutely. Some of our long-term clients own properties on both sides of the Potomac. Same team model applies. Same client portal. Same billing. Same team lead as your single point of contact.
Yes. Our vacation rental cleaning team handles same-day turnovers for National Harbor Airbnb and VRBO hosts, hotel-associated short-term rentals, and MGM-area accommodations. Photo confirmation delivered after every turnover.
We are experienced with historic homes. Our team uses pH-neutral cleaners on original hardwood floors, gentle chemistry on plaster walls, and appropriate care for original trim, windows, and cabinetry. We respect what makes these homes special.
