A Recurring House Clean keeps a home from sliding between visits. TotalCare Cleaning will offer it weekly, bi-weekly and monthly in Lansing, beginning with an Initial Deep Clean, and the question is how often your particular house needs one.

The answer here depends on people, pets and the Michigan calendar. Lansing has about 71 days a year with a tenth of an inch or more of precipitation, and snow sits on the ground for roughly two months in total, so floors do not stay clean by accident.

What the Lansing calendar does to a floor

Airport records show about 66 days a year with at least an inch of snow on the ground and about 15 days with an inch or more of new snow. The median last spring freeze is May 1 and the median first fall freeze is October 13, which leaves about 162 days in the growing season and a long cold stretch on either side of it.

Snowmelt is only part of the story. June, May and August are the wettest months, at 3.76, 3.66 and 3.48 inches, so mud and damp shoes take over once the snow has gone. Then the air turns moist, with mean dew points of about 60 degrees in July and August. Anyone who walks the Lansing River Trail, with over 20 miles of paved path, brings a little of each season back through the door too.

Bi-weekly: enough for a steady house

Two weeks is a good interval for a household of ordinary size. Bathrooms stay on top of soap film and calcium, kitchens never reach the point of real degreasing, and a floor that collected winter grit gets cleared before it wears on the finish. Bi-weekly starting prices run $138.00 to $441.00 across five home sizes, with the smallest at $138.00.

Board of Water & Light water is softened to about 5.7 grains per gallon, and it can run harder in summer. At that level, two weeks of film comes off without much trouble, while two months' worth can take noticeably longer to treat.

Weekly: for full houses and shedding pets

If you have several children, dogs or cats, or someone in the house with breathing trouble, a weekly visit is a reasonable choice. Pet hair and tracked-in salt add up quickly on hard floors, and about 51 percent of Lansing's homes were built before 1960. A small room shows dirt early.

Many families do not need weekly visits all year. If your plan can shift, it may make sense to run weekly through the snowiest months, when January alone averages 14.3 inches, and then ease off later in spring.

Monthly: for small homes and light use

A monthly plan makes sense for one or two people in a smaller home, particularly an apartment. About 19 percent of Lansing's housing units are in buildings of 10 or more units, and a home like that may see much less grit, since an entry hall and a lobby take some of it first.

The trade-off is that a lot can pile up in four weeks. In winter, keep a boot tray by the door and do a quick sweep between visits. In summer, run the bathroom fan and wipe the shower glass, since moisture lingers when dew points are up.

What a recurring visit covers

Each visit will take care of kitchens, bathrooms, dusting and floors. The detail work of a deep clean is done at the Initial Deep Clean, and some of it can be repeated later if a house falls behind. The deep cleaning guide lists that work in full.

A little preparation pays off. Pick up small items from counters and floors, and leave a note about anything that has changed since the last visit. For the calendar side of things, the seasonal cleaning calendar and the winter cleaning guide spell out what to do in each part of the year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lansing Recurring cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

On the current Lansing rate card, a bi-weekly Recurring House Clean starts at $138.00 per visit for a 1 bed / 1 bath home of about 800 sq ft, $229.00 for a 3 bed / 2 bath home of about 2,000 sq ft and $441.00 for a 5 bed / 4 bath home of about 4,500 sq ft. Prices are by the home, not by the hour, with supplies included, and your exact price is shown online before you book.
Bi-weekly is a sensible starting point for a family home, and you can adjust from there. Heavy snow months push some houses toward weekly, because the airport averages about 66 days with an inch or more of snow on the ground and that means grit at every door.
For a small home with light use, it can be, as long as someone handles the entry floors between visits. January averages 14.3 inches of snow and February 12.9, and salt left on a floor for weeks can dull the finish. A mat and a quick sweep help a lot.
Mean dew points rise to about 60 degrees in July and August, against 18 to 19 in the depth of winter, so bathrooms take longer to dry. Water hardness can also run higher in summer, when the utility uses harder wells. A fan and a squeegee help.
Yes. A plan can change to suit the household, for example moving from weekly to bi-weekly once spring arrives and the entry floors calm down. Changes to the frequency also change the price per visit, and the new figure is shown to you before you confirm it.
No. Supplies and equipment are included in the price. If you prefer a particular product on a particular surface, leave it out with a note. In an older house, that can be a useful way of flagging a finish that needs special treatment.
