About 20 miles from Augusta, across the state line, Aiken has its own history, its own water system and South Carolina's rules. It deserves its own page, and its homes often deserve some extra care.

A winter colony that became a horse town

Aiken became a winter home for wealthy Northeasterners in the late 1800s, when Thomas Hitchcock Sr. and William C. Whitney established the Aiken Winter Colony. Historic District I has more than 30 properties, many of them large mansions with stables built between 1882 and 1948.

That legacy continues. Aiken is home to the Aiken Training Track and many polo matches, the Aiken Steeplechase Association holds the Imperial Cup each March, and Hitchcock Woods covers about 2,100 acres, making it one of the largest urban forests in the country. The city is the seat of Aiken County, with 32,025 residents in the 2020 census.

What Aiken homes need from a cleaning

About 20 percent of homes in the city were built before 1960, and about 73 percent are single family detached. Older houses call for patient work. Original wood, plaster and old tile can suffer under strong products or too much water, so tell your cleaner about any such surfaces. If paint is chipping in a home built before 1978, say so and leave it for someone qualified.

Households around horses and trails have their own routine. If someone comes home from the barn or the woods in boots, dust and dirt travel with them. A stiff mat at the door and a set place for boots do much of the work, and a Recurring House Clean can take care of what gets past them. Wet-wiped blinds and hand washed baseboards, both part of a One-Time Deep Clean, help where dust has settled over time.

About 32 percent of occupied homes are rented. South Carolina law gives a landlord 30 days after the tenancy ends and the tenant demands it to return a deposit, with deductions itemized in writing, so put your request in writing. A Moving Clean at the end of the lease covers appliance and cabinet interiors.

Water notices in Aiken

The City of Aiken occasionally has discolored water. When some customers saw it in August 2025, the city said the water was safe but advised against doing laundry until it cleared. It scheduled zero-discharge main flushing for October 19 to 23, 2026, to remove sediment from mains. In May 2026, during a severe drought, the city also asked customers to cut non-essential use such as washing sidewalks, driveways and buildings. Check the city's current notices before planning outdoor washing or a big laundry day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Aiken Cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

Yes, the plan includes Aiken, about 20 miles northeast of Augusta. It is in South Carolina, so state rules on leases and consumer complaints differ from those in Georgia, but services and pricing by home size work the same way.
The services are ordinary home cleaning, and older properties can benefit from them. Very large estates and outbuildings need a quote based on their real size. Stables and barns are not part of home cleaning. Tell us about any delicate original finishes so they can be handled appropriately.
South Carolina gives a landlord 30 days after the tenancy ends and you demand it to return the deposit, with deductions itemized in writing. Make the request in writing with your forwarding address, and keep a copy. Dated photos taken after a Moving Clean can help too.
Check the city's notice for the affected dates. Main flushing is meant to remove sediment and reduce discolored water, but if your water looks off, avoid laundry until it clears, as the city advised in 2025. Let your cleaner know, so nothing is rinsed with discolored water.
