Mt. Lebanon sits about 4 to 6 miles south of downtown Pittsburgh and grew up around the trolley. Its first line to the city opened in 1901, and the population jumped from 2,258 in 1920 to 13,403 by 1930. Much of the housing from that boom still stands, which is what gives the township its look and its cleaning needs.

When TotalCare Cleaning comes to the South Hills, Mt. Lebanon homes will be covered under the same flat price table as the rest of the Pittsburgh area.

A streetcar suburb that kept its houses

Mt. Lebanon is a home rule township of 34,075 people as of 2020, with neighborhoods such as Virginia Manor, Beverly Heights and Mission Hills. Its growth came fast and early: the trolley made it possible to work downtown and live on a quiet street, and builders filled those streets during the 1920s.

The Mt. Lebanon Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014, covers about 1,306 acres and 3,341 contributing buildings built from 1874 to 1945. In practical terms, a large share of the homes a cleaner walks into here are pre-war houses.

Tudors, foursquares and what they need

The township's housing includes Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, American Foursquare, Craftsman bungalow and Queen Anne homes. Those styles share a few features that shape a clean: stained or painted woodwork, built-in cabinetry, plaster walls, leaded or divided-light windows, radiators and original tile baths.

Each gets a light touch. Woodwork is wiped with a mild cleaner and dried, never soaked. Plaster is spot cleaned with a barely damp cloth. Divided-light windows have more edges and corners where dust lodges, and the deep clean wipes window tracks and sills by hand.

Because nearly all of the historic district predates 1978, the EPA's lead paint advice applies: settled lead dust can lift during vacuuming or sweeping, and where paint is chipping the agency recommends HEPA vacuums and no dry sweeping. Flaking areas should be pointed out to the owner, not touched. The older home cleaning guide covers this in more depth.

Ten thousand trees and leaf season

Mt. Lebanon is a Tree City USA community and maintains more than 10,000 street trees. That canopy is a big part of why people love the township, and it is also why fall is the messiest season indoors. The township vacuums loose leaves from the curb on most streets each fall, on the business day before regular trash day, but until the piles are collected, crushed leaves come in on every shoe.

Put a scraper mat outside each door in October and November, and expect entry floors and stair runners to need extra attention. Once the leaves are down is a sensible time for a One-Time Deep Clean.

Trash, recycling and cleaning visits

Mt. Lebanon collects garbage weekly, with a limit of 15 bags, and recycling at the curb every other week. Cleaners bag household trash and leave it with your cans. For a big clean-out or a move, spread the bags across pickups so you stay under the limit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mt. Lebanon Cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

Yes. Mt. Lebanon will be part of the Pittsburgh area service, including neighborhoods such as Virginia Manor, Beverly Heights and Mission Hills. The same price table by home size will apply across the township.
No. Price follows bedrooms, bathrooms and square footage. A Tudor Revival or foursquare in the historic district sits on the same table as any Pittsburgh area home of its size. Larger homes simply land on a higher row. The cost page shows every row.
With a mild cleaner on a soft cloth, followed by a dry cloth, and never soaked. Mt. Lebanon's Craftsman, Tudor and foursquare homes often have built-ins and staircases in original finish, and harsh products can strip or cloud them.
The township vacuums loose leaves from the curb on most streets each fall, on the business day before regular trash day. Check the public works page for the current schedule, and plan an extra entry clean for the weeks the leaves are down.
Cleaners never scrape, sand or disturb old paint. Following EPA advice for homes built before 1978, painted surfaces are damp wiped, and chipping areas are left alone and pointed out to the owner, who can bring in a qualified contractor.
