Kentwood does not fit the picture of a suburb of nothing but houses. Only about 47.5 percent of homes are single family detached, and about 24 percent are in buildings of 10 or more units. A cleaning visit here is about as likely to involve an apartment as a family home.

TotalCare Cleaning will service Kentwood with both in mind, sizing each visit to the home and to where a lease stands.

Trails, an airport and a mixed city

Kentwood has more than 10 miles of walking and bike trails, including a large portion of the Paul B. Henry Trail, and it sits next to Gerald R. Ford International Airport. Walkers, cyclists and dogs bring grit in on shoes and tires, and bikes stored indoors leave their own marks in a hallway.

The city also runs a seasonal brush and leaf drop-off site, taking material from October 10 to November 25 in 2026. Yard work is a separate job from a cleaning visit, but keeping leaf piles away from the door means less is carried inside.

Apartments beside houses from the 1980s

In Kentwood about 47.5 percent of homes are single family detached, about 24 percent are in buildings of 10 or more units, and about 39 percent of occupied homes are rented. The median year built is 1983. A house of that age has seen decades of use in its kitchen and bathrooms without having the delicate finishes of a prewar home.

An apartment is a simpler job, with less floor and fewer baseboards, though kitchens and baths need the same attention. A first One-Time Deep Clean brings detail items up to standard, and a Recurring House Clean keeps the home there.

When a lease ends

With about 39 percent of occupied homes rented, plenty of Kentwood households will want to get a deposit back at some point. Michigan law requires a landlord who claims damages against a security deposit to mail the tenant an itemized list within 30 days after the tenant moves out. A landlord who misses that deadline is treated as agreeing that no damages are due and must return the full deposit.

Michigan landlords who take a deposit must also use move-in and move-out inventory checklists. Keep your copy, and compare it to the home on your way out. A One-Time Moving Clean adds the inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets, and the move-out guide goes through it all.

Spongy moth season

The City of Kentwood runs a spongy moth suppression program with aerial spray treatment of affected areas in May or June. If your area is on the list, keep an eye on the city's notices, and close windows during treatment.

Caterpillars and their droppings can end up on porches, sills and the shoes that walk through them in a heavy year. Sweep porches, and keep the door mat clean. Inside, it is ordinary dust and debris that a regular visit can handle.

A long winter at the door

The airport averages 77.6 inches of snow a year and about 67 days with at least an inch on the ground. Salty slush reaches hallways and entries for months, and shared stairwells and small entries get little chance to dry. A tray for boots and a mat that can be taken up and shaken help greatly. The winter guide offers more on this.

Frequently Asked Questions

Kentwood Cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

Yes. About 39 percent of occupied homes here are rented, and a Moving Clean adds the inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets. Michigan landlords must mail an itemized list of claimed damages within 30 days after you move out.
Only slightly. Kentwood runs aerial spray treatment of affected areas in May or June. Check the city's notices and close windows during treatment. Porches and sills may need extra sweeping during a heavy year, which any household can do between visits.
The table follows bedrooms and bathrooms, priced by the home, not by the hour. An apartment simply reads from its own row. About 24 percent of homes in Kentwood are in buildings of 10 or more units, so smaller rows are common.
Keep boots on a tray, use mats on both sides of the door and sweep before mopping so grit does not scratch the finish. With 77.6 inches of snow a year at the airport, many households move to more frequent visits in winter.
