Plymouth was settled in 1825, incorporated in 1867 and became a city in 1932. Close to a third of its houses predate the Second World War. Plymouth Township surrounds the city but is a separate community with its own, somewhat newer housing.

TotalCare Cleaning will service both the city and the township, along with the downtown streets in between.

An old town with a busy downtown calendar

Plymouth's history shows in its housing. Census estimates put the city's median home at 1961, with about 30 percent built in 1939 or earlier and about 76 percent built before 1980. That is older on average than the city of Northville next door.

Downtown Plymouth is also a gathering place. Every late January it hosts the Plymouth Ice Festival, an ice carving event held since 1982, and visitors spend long stretches outside in the cold. Wet boots, salty sidewalks and coats dripping by the door are part of that weekend for many households.

What Plymouth homes need

Older houses in the city bring original hardwood, painted trim, plaster walls and small, tiled bathrooms. They need mild products, soft cloths and a careful hand, and with so many built before 1978, nothing gets sanded or scraped. The state's MI Lead Safe program is the place to start for any peeling paint. The older home cleaning guide goes into detail.

Plymouth is also a city of renters and apartments. About 31 percent of occupied homes are rented, and about a third of housing units are in buildings with two or more units. Smaller units often suit monthly or bi-weekly visits, and a Moving Clean at lease end is the right fit for an empty unit.

In Plymouth Township the picture shifts. Its median home dates from 1977, about 58 percent were built before 1980, and about 85 percent are owner occupied. With so many owner occupied houses, recurring plans and seasonal deep cleans fit the township well.

Water, leaves and the cleaning calendar

The City of Plymouth's 2025 water report names the Detroit River as its source. Treated river water usually leaves lighter spotting on glass and chrome than very hard well water, so shower doors stay clear with regular care.

Fall in Plymouth runs on a leaf schedule. The city collects loose leaves raked to the curb only in the fall, and each household gets its own pickup week. Raking pushes leaf bits and grit into entries and window tracks, so a deep clean after your pickup week, before the snow, is good timing.

Winter is the long season. With about 45 inches of snow in a normal year, entries and floors take the most wear from December through March.

Frequently Asked Questions

Plymouth Cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

Yes, with care. About 30 percent of Plymouth homes were built in 1939 or earlier. Cleaners use mild products on old varnish and plaster, test in a hidden spot first and never sand, scrape or strip paint, since homes built before 1978 may contain lead paint.
After your assigned week. The city collects loose leaves at the curb only in fall, with each household given its own pickup week. A deep clean once the raking is done clears the grit and leaf bits that came indoors, before snow season starts.
Yes. Plymouth Township surrounds the city but is a separate charter township, and TotalCare Cleaning will service both. Township homes are more often owner occupied, and the price follows each home's size.
A Moving Clean on the row that matches its bedrooms and bathrooms. About 31 percent of Plymouth homes are rented, and Michigan gives landlords 30 days after move-out to mail any itemized damage list, so the clean is best booked right after the last box leaves.
