Service Areas
Every TotalCare Cleaning professional is background-checked and screened before their first job.
Greenwood Village was founded to keep its pastoral feel, and it still shows in its equestrian parks, horse crossings and about 40 miles of trails. That outdoor life is what a cleaning plan here works around.
Highlands Ranch homes share a planned-community layout, one covenant and water that usually runs 11 to 13 grains per gallon, which makes glass and fixtures the first thing a cleaning plan here has to handle.
Lone Tree went from a nine household subdivision to a city that stretches across I-25, so its homes range from established Heritage Hills and Carriage Club streets to houses that only got their first residents in 2023.
Parker grew from a 285 resident stagecoach stop into a town of about 72,000, and its homes come with their own quirks: three separate water districts, aquifer water that can stain, HOA rules and no town trash service.
Other places in the Denver area: Backcountry, BlueSage, Carriage Club, Cherry Creek, Cherry Hills Vista, Eastridge, Greenwood Hills, Heritage Hills, Hilltop, The Pinery, RidgeGate, Stonegate, Stroh Ranch, The Preserve, Washington Park.

Water hardness changes a lot across the Denver area, from Denver Water's soft to moderately hard mountain supply to Highlands Ranch at 11 to 13 grains per gallon and Parker's iron-bearing wells. Here is what that means for glass and fixtures.
A guide for Denver hosts, where a short-term rental has to be your own primary residence. What the city's license rules mean for cleaning, how to size trash for guests, and how to keep the home guest-ready through snow and moth season.

How to keep a Denver area home clean from the first October snow to the last April storm, with blizzard totals from Highlands Ranch to Parker, chinook melt days and the dry indoor air that comes with them.
Denver homes get dirty in a way that is all their own. Snow can fall from mid October to late April, the air is dry enough that a freshly mopped floor dries in no time, and every few summers a hailstorm reminds the whole metro how fast the weather turns. Add a run of Front Range insects that wander indoors at predictable times of year, and a cleaning plan here has to follow the calendar rather than a generic checklist.
This page lays out what TotalCare Cleaning will offer when it comes to Denver: how older and newer homes differ, which service fits which home, and the local guides worth reading first.
The Denver area splits roughly into two housing stories. Inside the city, plenty of homes date to the first half of the twentieth century. Denver Water says homes built before 1951 are likely to have lead water service lines, and it estimates that somewhere between 60,000 and 64,000 of the homes it supplies may still have one. That points to a lot of prewar housing, with original trim, old tile and painted woodwork that reward careful hands rather than aggressive scrubbing.
To the south, the picture flips. Highlands Ranch is a planned community whose first homes went up in 1981. Parker has grown from fewer than 300 residents when it incorporated to about 72,000 today. Lone Tree saw its first residents east of I-25 move in during 2023. In those homes, square footage and glass, not age, drive the work.
National Weather Service records put Denver's average seasonal snowfall at 56.9 inches. The first measurable snow falls around October 19 on average and the last around April 28, and March, not January, is the snowiest month at 11.5 inches. That means wet boots and grit on entry floors for more than half the year.
The Colorado Climate Center notes that humidity here is generally quite low, which speeds evaporation, and that winter brings dry air and strong winds. Chinook winds along the Front Range can lift temperatures 25 to 35 degrees in a short time, so a snowy morning can turn into a muddy, melting afternoon. Dry, windy weather is a big part of why shelves, sills and screens here seem to need attention so often.
Rain peaks in May and July, around 2.1 inches each, and summer storms can bring hail. The May 8, 2017 storm dropped stones up to 2.5 inches across Denver and became the costliest insured catastrophe in Colorado history. The seasonal cleaning calendar and the winter cleaning guide cover the year in detail.
Colorado State University Extension documents three regular visitors. Miller moth flights usually begin in mid May or early June and can run five to six weeks, with moths tucking into cracks around doors and garages. Elm seed bugs come in from mid June through September and give off a foul odor when disturbed. Boxelder bugs spend the winter inside walls and crawl out on warm fall and winter days, and they can stain drapes and light colored surfaces.
CSU Extension recommends vacuuming all three rather than spraying indoors. Regular visits in those months vacuum sills, light fixtures and door tracks before dead insects can stain or smell.
Denver Water draws from the upper South Platte, the upper Blue River and Bear Creek and stores it in mountain reservoirs such as Cheesman, Dillon and Eleven Mile Canyon. It describes the result as soft to moderately hard, harder in the southern system than the northern one, and a little harder in winter when reservoirs freeze. Spring snowmelt softens it again.
The south suburbs are a different story. Highlands Ranch Water reports hardness that usually runs 11 to 13 grains per gallon, and Parker Water and Sanitation treats its aquifer wells for iron and manganese that can stain laundry. The hard water guide walks through which utility supplies which part of the metro and what that means for shower glass.
A Recurring House Clean on a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly plan will keep a home steady through snow season and bug season, and a three bedroom home on a bi-weekly plan is listed at $256.00 per visit. The first visit of any plan is an Initial Deep Clean. A One-Time Deep Clean, from $311.00 to $690.00 by home size, resets a home that has gone a while without professional care: baseboards washed by hand, blinds wiped, window tracks and vents cleared, cabinet fronts degreased and shower glass treated for water spots.
A Moving Clean adds the inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets for an empty home. Denver requires a residential rental license for anyone renting a home for 30 days or more, and Colorado law sets firm rules for deposit returns, so tenants and landlords alike tend to book one at lease end. The move-out guide explains the deposit timeline, and the cost page shows every row of the table.
Along with the city itself, TotalCare Cleaning will service four south metro communities that each have their own page. Highlands Ranch is the unincorporated planned community in Douglas County with noticeably harder water than the city. Parker grew from the old 20 Mile House stop into a town of about 72,000. Lone Tree began as a nine household subdivision and later took in the 3,500 acre RidgeGate property. Greenwood Village incorporated in 1950 to protect its pastoral character and still keeps 40 miles of trails and equestrian crossings.
Other neighborhoods the Denver pages have covered include Washington Park, Cherry Creek, Hilltop, Cherry Hills Vista, Greenwood Hills and BlueSage, along with Backcountry and Eastridge in Highlands Ranch, Heritage Hills, Carriage Club and RidgeGate in Lone Tree, The Pinery, Stonegate and Stroh Ranch in Parker, and The Preserve in Greenwood Village.
