Cleaning homes in Carson
This city filled in later than most of its neighbors, and the timing shows. Scottsdale, Carriage Crest, Del Amo Park and the Dominguez tracts are wide streets of three- and four-bedroom houses on six- to eight-thousand-foot lots, most of them single story, many with a family room added on the back at some point in the eighties. Two-car attached garages are standard, which is unusual around here.
A lot of these houses have had the same owners since they were new. That changes the work more than the architecture does: the kitchens have been remodeled once, the carpet has been replaced twice, and the back bedrooms have quietly become storage. First visits usually run long, and after that a fortnightly rhythm keeps it steady. Households here also tend to be multi-generational, so we agree the route through the house before anyone starts.
Carson homes, structurally
The standard house here is 1,300 to 1,900 square feet on one level, slab-built, with tile or vinyl in the kitchen and baths and carpet through the bedrooms and hallway. Two-story plans turn up in the later seventies tracts and in the newer infill along Avalon. Ceilings are eight feet, windows are aluminum-framed sliders, and the yards are large enough that garden dirt makes it inside on shoes. None of it is complicated, which keeps a standard visit near the middle of our range.
