Winter Haven, FL
Winter Haven homes are newer than most of Polk County's and many sit along the Chain of Lakes, which means lake sand at the door, screened porches full of pollen and a long, wet summer.

Join the Opening List →Winter Haven calls itself the Chain of Lakes City, and for good reason: 50 lakes sit within or along its limits. Its housing also leans much newer than Lakeland's own.
TotalCare Cleaning will service Winter Haven as part of the Lakeland area, with the same prices by home size. Here is what local homes need and how the lakes and the weather shape the work.
The City of Winter Haven counts 50 lakes within or bordering city limits. Eight of them make up the North Chain and fourteen the South Chain, and the rest are scattered through the city's neighborhoods.
The city's best known landmark is on one of those lakes. Cypress Gardens opened in Winter Haven in 1936 as Florida's first theme park, closed in 2009, and LEGOLAND Florida opened on the same site in October 2011. Neighborhoods around the former Cypress Gardens grounds fall within this page.
Census estimates show about 43 percent of Winter Haven's homes were built in 2000 or later, and about 24 percent since 2010. The median home dates from 1990, compared with 1983 in Lakeland. About 66 percent of homes are single family detached houses.
Newer homes bring their own cleaning list: large tiled great rooms, open kitchens with stone counters, glass shower enclosures, high ceilings with fans and tall windows, and screened lanais. Square footage, not age, drives most of the work, so many Winter Haven homes land on the third or fourth row of the price table.
More than half of Winter Haven's homes still predate 2000. For the older ones, the older home guide applies.
Winter Haven runs its own water system, separate from Lakeland's. The city draws from 21 wells in the Floridan Aquifer, then aerates, chlorinates and fluoridates the water and adds orthopolyphosphate to limit corrosion and deposits in the pipes. Even so, any well water leaves some mineral residue where it dries, so glass shower doors and faucets benefit from a squeegee after use and the hard water spot treatment that comes with a deep clean.
Life on the Chain of Lakes means wet feet, sand and insects coming through the door. Lovebugs swarm in May and September, according to UF/IFAS, and lakefront screens and porch lights collect them. Pollen is heaviest in March and April, with oaks shedding in February, and it settles on lanai furniture, screens and sills.
Summer adds rain. Lakeland area normals show June through September each bringing about 7.6 to 9.1 inches, more than half the yearly total. Entry floors, sliding door tracks and screened porches are the priorities on every visit in a lakeside home.
Polk County has about 29,000 homes held for seasonal, recreational or occasional use, about 8.5 percent of all housing units. A home that sits closed for months collects dust and stale air. A One-Time Deep Clean before the owners return, and a Recurring House Clean while they are in residence, keep it ready.
