Few towns in the Charlotte area have a history as tied to one company as Kannapolis. It grew from a single textile mill into a city of its own, and its housing is older than most of the region. That history shapes what cleaning looks like here.

From Cannon Mills village to city

J.W. Cannon bought the land for Kannapolis in 1906, and the mill began production in 1908. Cannon Mills built about 1,600 homes for its workers, and for most of the twentieth century the town was run as a company mill village rather than an incorporated city.

Residents voted to incorporate Kannapolis in 1984. Then, in July 2003, the closing of Pillowtex, which had taken over the mills, cost 4,340 workers their jobs. The city has been rebuilding since, and its older streets now sit alongside newer development.

Older homes are the norm here

About 44 percent of Kannapolis housing units were built before 1980, which is the oldest share among the Charlotte area towns checked. Older homes like these often have wood floors, painted trim, smaller kitchens and compact bathrooms.

These homes clean well with a gentle approach. Old hardwood wants a barely damp mop and a pH-neutral cleaner. Painted trim and doors may have many coats, so cleaners wipe rather than scrub, and they never sand or scrape old paint. Small bathrooms with older tile get careful grout work rather than harsh chemicals.

Kannapolis water and the local yard

Kannapolis draws its drinking water mainly from Kannapolis Lake, a 289-acre reservoir, with Lake Don T. Howell and Second Creek as backup sources. It is a separate system from Charlotte Water, so check the city's own annual report for details about your tap water.

Like the rest of the Piedmont, Kannapolis sits on red clay soil, which NC State Extension describes as red, brown and yellow in the subsoil. Older homes often have smaller entries without a mudroom, so a mat outside and inside every door does a lot of the work.

Seasons in an older Kannapolis home

Older homes tend to have more gaps around windows and doors, which matters in the fall. NC State Extension reports that brown marmorated stink bugs move to overwintering sites in mid September and October, gathering in attics, garages and behind picture frames. Vacuuming them from window frames is cleaner than crushing them. In spring, tree pollen peaks in April across the Charlotte area and settles on sills and porches.

Choosing a service in Kannapolis

A One-Time Deep Clean is a good start for an older home: baseboards washed by hand, blinds wet-wiped, fans and light fixtures wiped in place and faucets detailed. After that, a bi-weekly or monthly Recurring House Clean keeps the home steady. A Moving Clean suits an older house changing hands, since it reaches inside the oven, refrigerator and cabinets of an empty home.

Frequently Asked Questions

Kannapolis Cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

Generally, yes. About 44 percent of Kannapolis housing was built before 1980, the oldest share among the area towns checked. The city grew up as the Cannon Mills village, where the company built about 1,600 houses for its workers.
Original hardwood in older Kannapolis homes does best with a vacuum or dry mop first, then a barely damp mop and a pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid soaking the floor, since old boards can cup. Cleaners never sand or refinish floors, and they test products on a hidden spot first.
Kannapolis draws mainly from Kannapolis Lake, a 289-acre reservoir, and keeps Lake Don T. Howell and Second Creek as supplemental sources. The city publishes an annual drinking water quality report with the details for your home.
Yes. Kannapolis is part of the Charlotte area that TotalCare Cleaning will service. Prices are set the same way, by bedrooms, bathrooms and square footage that apply in Charlotte and Concord, and many older Kannapolis homes land on the smaller rows of the table.
