The Petaluma River splits this town into two housing eras: an intact Victorian downtown on the west bank, and forty years of tract building spreading east from the freeway.

MaidSimple cleans homes throughout Petaluma, California. The people who come to your door are employees on our payroll, background-checked and covered by insurance and a bond. West of the river you get 1880s and 1890s houses with high ceilings, wooden stairs and picture rails. East of it, 1970s through 2000s subdivisions with carpet, slab floors and attached garages. Those two need different visit lengths for the same bedroom count. Pricing opens at $265 for a 3 bed / 2 bath. We work 94952 and 94954.
Petaluma kept its downtown, which is rarer than it sounds. The iron-front buildings and the Victorian blocks around Oakhill-Brewster survived the twentieth century largely because the money went north instead. What that means in practice is a stock of tall, narrow houses with steep staircases, plaster and lath, transoms above the doors, and floor grates where a modern house would have a ceiling vent.
Cross the river and it is a different town. Old East Petaluma gives way to Payran, Cherry Valley and the McDowell corridor, where the houses are single- and two-story tract builds on regular lots, and the interiors are the ones most people picture: carpet in the bedrooms, vinyl or tile in the wet rooms, a slider onto a fenced yard. Both halves book the same way, but a west-side Victorian rarely takes the same time as an east-side four-bedroom of similar size.
West-side houses run 1,400 to 2,600 square feet across two or three floors, with narrow hallways, original wood you cannot flood, and windows in wooden sashes that hold dust in the corners. East-side homes are wider and flatter: 1,500 to 2,200 square feet, slab foundations, one or two stories, more carpet and simpler layouts. Fog comes up the river most summer nights, so the west side sees more mildew around window frames and in north-facing bathrooms than the east side does.

Flat prices for a lived-in home, supplies and equipment included. A tidier home prices lower and a weekly plan saves 15%; the form above works out your exact number in about a minute. Prices are identical everywhere we work — your ZIP code does not change the number.
The small things that decide whether a visit runs smoothly or runs late.
A three-story house on D Street or the Oakhill blocks means carrying equipment up and back several times, plus a full flight of spindles and a handrail to wipe. That is time, and it is priced honestly rather than rushed through.
Summer nights pull damp air up the channel, and the older west-side bathrooms with a single small window are where it shows. Ceiling corners, grout and window frames get checked every visit before it turns into something that needs scrubbing.
Parking around Kentucky Street and the blocks above the turning basin is tight from mid-morning, especially on market days. Homes with a rear alley or a driveway are easy. For the rest, we plan the visit earlier in the day.

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.

The general FAQ covers access, supplies, rescheduling and the guarantee.
Yes, and they are among our more frequent bookings in this town. Those houses have more rooms, more staircases and more delicate surfaces than the square footage implies, so the estimate is driven by bed and bath count and the number of floors. Original wood, plaster and painted trim are cleaned damp with neutral products, never soaked.
Not by address, no. The price comes from your room count and the clean you choose. In practice a west-side house with three floors and one and a half bathrooms often lands near an east-side four-bedroom, because vertical distance and old-house detail cost time even when the footprint is smaller.
Yes. Market mornings make the streets near the turning basin slow, so we generally schedule nearby homes for a weekday or a Saturday afternoon slot. If you specifically want a Saturday morning and your house has off-street parking, that works fine. Just mention the driveway when you book.
