A recurring plan answers one question: how fast does your home get dirty again? In Annapolis the answer depends a lot on the month. Pollen coats everything in spring, July is both hot and wet, ragweed follows, and then stink bugs start hunting for shelter.

TotalCare Cleaning will offer the Recurring House Clean weekly, bi-weekly or monthly. This guide sets out how to choose among them, given the local climate and the kinds of homes you find around Annapolis.

What the local year does to a house

Spring is mostly about pollen. University of Maryland Extension notes that the Mid-Atlantic's long spring brings pollen from trees, grasses and other plants heavy enough to coat car windshields, and some of that always gets indoors. Later in the year, the Extension identifies ragweed pollen as the primary cause of hay fever. People with allergies may want settled dust cleared more often during those months.

Summer is about heat and water. NOAA normals count about 40 days a year at 90 degrees or hotter, and July has an average high of 89.1 degrees. July is also the wettest month at BWI, at 4.48 inches, out of about 45 inches a year. So a house may be shut tight against the heat while wet shoes keep crossing its floors.

Winter is about grit. About 81 nights a year reach freezing, and BWI averages about 19.3 inches of snow, with February the snowiest month. City sidewalks must be cleared after a storm, and whatever is used on them finds its way indoors.

Weekly, bi-weekly or monthly

Bi-weekly plans start at $160.00 for the smallest home, and they run $160.00 to $497.00 across the five sizes. Each frequency suits a different kind of home.

The insect side of the calendar

Two insects affect the schedule here. University of Maryland Extension lists Anne Arundel County among Maryland counties with moderate spotted lanternfly infestation, and a state quarantine covers every county. Most of the mess stays outdoors, on decks and rails, but what gets tracked in ends up on entry floors. A good mat and a regular rinse outside limit that.

The other is the brown marmorated stink bug, which the Extension says can become a nuisance inside homes in the fall as they seek shelter. Sills and window tracks are where you will usually find them. A vacuum handles them with the least fuss, and regular visits keep those areas clear enough to notice where they get in.

Matching a plan to the home

A condo or apartment, like the roughly 30 percent of city units in buildings of five or more, often does fine with bi-weekly or monthly visits. A townhouse adds stairs, which collect a lot of dust and need steady attention. A large detached home, as is common in Severna Park and Arnold, has more floor and more baths, and it tends to do better with bi-weekly, since a month of wear across several bathrooms is a lot to catch up on.

Trail users and dog walkers have their own issue. The B&A Trail runs 13.3 paved miles from Annapolis to Glen Burnie, and regular trail use means regular grit at the door. Boot trays and mats do more here than an extra visit would.

How a plan gets started

Every plan begins with an Initial Deep Clean, which deals with the baseboards, blinds, window tracks and shower glass that regular visits are not designed to reach. Later visits hold the home at that level. About 60 percent of city homes predate 1980, so that first visit often has more to do than people expect. For a look at the whole year, see the seasonal calendar, and to see how the first visit is priced, read the cost page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Annapolis Recurring cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

On the current Annapolis rate card, a bi-weekly Recurring House Clean starts at $160.00 per visit for a 1 bed / 1 bath home of about 800 sq ft, $256.00 for a 3 bed / 2 bath home of about 2,000 sq ft and $497.00 for a 5 bed / 4 bath home of about 4,500 sq ft. Prices are by the home, not by the hour, with supplies included, and your exact price is shown online before you book.
Bi-weekly suits most families. It keeps up through the pollen months and through July, which is the wettest month at BWI, without leaving kitchens and baths to fall behind. Larger households or several pets may prefer weekly, and a small condo may be fine with monthly.
Bi-weekly visits run $160.00 to $497.00 across the five sizes, starting at $160.00 for the smallest home and $256.00 for a three bedroom home. They are priced by the home, not by the hour, and each plan starts with an Initial Deep Clean. The cost page shows all the rows.
It can help. University of Maryland Extension identifies ragweed pollen as the primary cause of hay fever. More frequent damp dusting and vacuuming in those weeks reduces what stays indoors, although cleaning is not a medical treatment and will not change the outdoor air.
It can be, for one or two people without pets. A condo has less floor, and about 30 percent of city units are in buildings of five or more. The trade-off is that each visit starts further behind, particularly in a small bathroom during the humid part of the year.
Most of the mess stays outside, and Anne Arundel County is listed among Maryland counties with moderate infestation. Rinse decks and rails from time to time, and use a coarse mat at the door. Regular visits will take care of whatever reaches the entry floor.
