Join the Opening List →King City is unusual among the cities around Portland. It began as a planned development on farmland, was age restricted for its first couple of decades, and still has a far smaller share of renters than its neighbors.
TotalCare Cleaning will plan visits to King City homes with that history in mind: simple, regular help in homes that are mostly lived in by their owners.
King City grew from 66 acres of farmland bought by developer Ron Sorenson in 1960, and it was recognized as a city in July 1966. It stayed age restricted until the 1980s, and Jordan Way was its first development without an age restriction.
The city is still changing. It has pursued an expansion plan since 2016, with a concept plan approved by Metro in 2018 and a Kingston Terrace Master Plan for the new area. So King City may hold two rather different groups of homes in the years ahead, older owner occupied houses and newer construction.
Only about 19 percent of King City's occupied homes are rented, and the median home was built in 1976. That places many houses here just before the 1978 federal ban on lead paint for homes, so peeling paint is something to leave alone and hand to a qualified contractor. Normal dusting and wiping of sound painted surfaces are fine.
A home of that age may still have original details worth treating gently, like aged cabinet fronts and worn window tracks. A cleaner should wipe these rather than scrub them, and you should point out anything you would like left alone. The older homes guide has more on this.
In a smaller household, a monthly Recurring House Clean is often enough for kitchens, bathrooms and floors, and it spares anyone from reaching, bending or carrying a vacuum up and down. Bi-weekly suits a home with more people or pets, and weekly is available for those who want it.
A visit goes more smoothly when small items are clear of counters and when there is a clear path to the bathrooms. Cleaners do not need the home perfectly tidy, but they do need to reach the surfaces. If there is a shelf of keepsakes, say so, and it can be left alone.
Portland area normals make November through January the wettest stretch of the year, so entry floors see the most work then. During wildfire smoke, the Oregon Health Authority advises keeping windows and doors closed, keeping air conditioner filters clean and running a HEPA filter, and it advises against vacuuming because that stirs up particles already inside the home.
If smoke is heavy on the day of a visit, it is reasonable to ask that vacuuming wait. The seasonal guide lays out the rest of the year month by month.
Very little preparation is needed. A short note about pets, medicines kept on counters, keepsakes and anything that should not be moved is the most useful thing to share. If stairs, a walker or a particular chair need to stay in a set place, say so, and it will go back exactly where it was.
If a family member is arranging help on behalf of someone else in the home, it helps to agree beforehand on who will answer the door and who will hear about any concerns. Interior windows are an add-on, and refrigerator and oven interiors belong to the Moving Clean, so those are worth asking about separately.
The Moving Clean also matters when a home is being sold or handed on. It includes the inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets, and the home should already be empty of furniture and boxes.
