TotalCare Cleaning will service Covington, along with Bogue Falaya, East Pearl Acres and the Plantation area. Most homes here are detached houses, and the rivers around the city are never far from anyone's mind.

An old town on two rivers

Covington was founded on July 4, 1813 as the Town of Wharton and renamed in 1816 after General Leonard Covington. Its District of St. John is on the National Register of Historic Places for its ox lots, the shared interior spaces of square blocks where farmers once kept oxen and wagons.

The city sits on the Bogue Falaya and Tchefuncte rivers, and it publishes real-time gauges for both on its flood page. In the 1850s the north shore was promoted as one of the healthiest places in the country, and New Orleanians later visited Covington hotels for the ozone air and waters.

Detached family houses with extra bathrooms

About 80 percent of Covington's housing units are single family detached. The median home was built in 1991 and about 38 percent are from 2000 or later. That makes it a town of mostly newer family homes around a much older core. In newer houses, large showers and open kitchens are where recurring visits spend most of their effort.

An older home in the historic district needs a slower first visit. A One-Time Deep Clean washes baseboards by hand, wipes blinds and clears window tracks, and it suits a home that has gone a long while without that kind of attention. Flaking paint in a pre-1978 house should go to a contractor beforehand.

Covington's water comes from four groundwater wells, including the Theard Street and 15th Street wells, and is disinfected with chloramine. It is a separate supply from the river water on the south shore.

Choosing a plan and watching the river

Most detached Covington homes do well with bi-weekly visits. With about 77 percent of St. Tammany's housing units detached, entries and floors collect a lot in rainy weeks. The recurring guide has more on picking an interval, and the cost page has every price.

When the rivers rise, check the city's gauges and put cleaning off until water is no longer a concern. TotalCare Cleaning does not handle flood damage or debris, and contractors should finish before a clean. See the storm guide for the order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Covington Cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

Yes. Bogue Falaya, East Pearl Acres and the Plantation area are grouped with Covington. Prices depend on the size of the home, not the neighborhood, and about 80 percent of Covington's homes are detached, so most fall on the middle and lower rows.
Yes. Point out original finishes and any flaking paint before the first visit. The District of St. John has older buildings than most of the area, and the team will clean around delicate surfaces. Paint problems go to a contractor before any cleaning.
Check the city's flood page, which has real-time gauges for both the Bogue Falaya and the Tchefuncte. Move a scheduled cleaning if water is a concern. After any flooding, finish repairs and dry out completely, since cleaning comes last and flood damage work is not included.
Often just one, as a start. The median home here dates to 1991, so most have a decent baseline with some grime on fans and tracks. A plan begins with an Initial Deep Clean, after which the regular visits keep it steady.
