There are no sidewalks and no streetlights in Los Altos Hills — the town was designed that way — so a winter afternoon booking on a private drive off Page Mill ends in genuine darkness.

MaidSimple serves Los Altos Hills, California with house cleaning and recurring maid service. One-acre minimum parcels, houses set far back, shared private drives and gate codes describe most of the town. Properties are large: five and six bedrooms with guest quarters are common, so visits are quoted on the full room count. Every cleaner is on our payroll, background-checked and insured, and comes equipped. A five-bedroom begins at $415. Addresses fall in 94022 and 94024.
The founders chose one-acre lots and a network of riding and walking paths instead of pavement, and that decision still governs the practical business of reaching a house. Addresses on Moody Road, Elena Road and the lanes off Purissima frequently sit at the end of a shared private drive with three or four gates on it. We collect the code, the gate quirk and the dog names before a first visit, not on the doorstep.
The houses themselves are the largest we work on anywhere in the valley: four to eight bedrooms, often across two levels with a lower floor cut into the slope, plus a guest house, a wine room or a pool cabana. Fremont Hills and the ridges near Byrne Preserve catch real wind, and in late summer they catch ash. Exterior-facing sills, skylight wells and the glass on the valley side want attention every single time.
Nothing here is small. Single-family homes run 3,500 to 8,000 square feet on parcels of an acre or more, usually with a detached secondary building and garaging for three cars. Construction spans several eras — 1960s modernist post-and-beam, 1980s Mediterranean, recent steel-and-glass rebuilds — but the constants are stone floors, tall glazing, and stairs cut into the hillside. Many parcels run on wells and septic, so we work water-efficiently and never tip rinse water outside.

Details a crew only knows once they have worked a neighbourhood properly.
Access is the single most common cause of a late start here. Send the gate code, the entrance that actually opens, and whether the drive is shared, and the crew arrives at the house instead of at a call box halfway up the hill.
From August into October, fine ash settles on exterior sills, skylight wells and any glass facing the ridge. Homes with big southern elevations show it within days. Through those months we build extra time into recurring visits for horizontal surfaces near openings.
Without street lighting, a late booking on an unlit private lane is harder on a crew than it sounds. Between November and February we place properties on the far side of the hills earlier in the day so nobody is loading a van by phone torch.

The whole-home refresh most Los Altos Hills homes book: kitchens, bathrooms, floors, dusting and tidying.
How it works →Baseboards, inside appliances, grout and vents — the detail work that resets a home.
How it works →Empty-home cleaning judged against a landlord’s checklist, for deposits and handovers.
How it works →Weekly, bi-weekly or monthly visits from the same team, at a standing discount.
How it works →Most cleaning companies send whoever is available that day. Our cleaners are our own trained, vetted, W-2 employees — which costs us more in payroll tax, workers’ comp and training, and is exactly why the same people come back to your home and the standard holds.
If anything’s not right, let us know within 24 hours and we’ll come back and re-clean it — completely free. No forms, no fuss, no fine print.
The general FAQ covers access, supplies, rescheduling and the guarantee.
Yes. Count their bedrooms and bathrooms in the booking and they are priced as part of the same visit. Detached buildings that have been shut up for a while may need a deep clean first — cobwebs, dust on high beams, window tracks that have not opened in months — and we will say so rather than absorb it into a standard visit.
That is common here, and a caretaker schedule suits it better than a weekly clean. A monthly or six-weekly visit keeps dust, cobwebs and spider activity down, checks that nothing has gone damp, and readies the house before you arrive. Give us your arrival date and the last visit is timed to it.
For homes over about 4,000 square feet we assign a three- or four-person team and keep it consistent. Consistency matters more at this size: the team learns which floors are honed stone, where the second laundry is, and which wing is closed off, and that knowledge takes an hour off every later visit.
