Midtown West Post-reno dust, gone
A real Lily Maids story
Maria S. had a brand new floor she couldn't even see.
Maria had just finished a kitchen renovation in her Midtown West one-bedroom. The contractors packed up, took their tools, and left behind that fine gray film that gets into everything. Cabinet tops. Window tracks. The air vents. She told us she'd wiped the counter three times and it kept coming back gray.
Our team showed up with the right tools for construction dust, which is not a paper towel and a spray bottle. We worked top down, vented the fine dust out of the return grilles, wiped every horizontal surface twice, then damp mopped the floor in two passes. In her words: "Thanks to their thorough house cleaning, my new space is finally spotless and ready for me to move in."
That's the kind of job this neighborhood sends us. Renovation dust. In-laws landing at 9am. A Broadway schedule that leaves zero free daylight. Lily Maids is a locally owned house cleaning service Midtown West residents book for one-time rescues, standing weekly visits, and everything in between. Pick a service, get a flat price, come home to clean. Start with how it works or jump to pricing.

Studios to three-bedrooms Built for tight Midtown floorplans

Apartment Cleaning in Midtown West.
Midtown West apartments are small and they work hard. A 480 square foot studio in a 1920s walk-up on West 51st holds the same amount of life as a house in Queens, just stacked. Every surface does double duty. The kitchen counter is also the desk. The radiator is also a shelf.
Our apartment cleaning teams are trained for that. We clean around your stuff, not through it. We work top down so dust falls onto floors we haven't done yet. We know which buildings on West 42nd need a service elevator reservation, which condo boards on 11th Avenue want a certificate of insurance on file, and which walk-ups between Ninth and Tenth have no elevator at all. Walk-ups never cost extra with us.
High-rise residents near Hudson Yards get the same treatment: we check in with the front desk, follow the building's vendor rules, and keep it quiet in the hallway. Read more about apartment cleaning in New York City, or see how it pairs with a recurring plan.

Same faces, when we can Housekeeping Service available
The regular help most people want
Maid Service you can rely on.
When people say they want a maid service, they usually mean one thing: someone dependable who shows up, knows the place, and doesn't need instructions every time. That's what we build. Our Midtown West clients get the same cleaner whenever the schedule allows, working from the same checklist so nothing gets skipped on a busy week.
Our Housekeeping Service goes a little further than a basic tidy. Beds made and linens swapped, laundry started if you leave it out, dishes handled, clutter reset to where it belongs. A lot of our Theater District clients keep odd hours and just want to walk into a calm apartment at 1am after a show. That's a completely normal thing to want, and its exactly what we do.
Every cleaner is insured, background-checked, and trained on our process before they ever touch a client home. Learn more about maid service in New York City.
The every-visit baseline
Standard Basic Cleaning done right.
This is the visit most people book first, and its the foundation everything else sits on. A Standard Basic Cleaning covers the kitchen (counters, backsplash, stovetop, sink, appliance exteriors, cabinet fronts), the bathrooms (tub, shower, tile, toilet inside and out, vanity, mirror, fixtures), and every living area and bedroom (dusting, surfaces, glass, beds made). Then floors get vacuumed and mopped throughout, and trash goes out.
No mystery about what happens. The list is public and we follow it. If your place hasn't had a real clean in six months or more, we'll usually suggest starting with a deep clean and then keeping it up with standard visits after. That combination saves people money over time, because the first visit does the hard part once instead of half-doing it four times.
See the full standard cleaning checklist or the complete cleaning checklist before you book.
Homes only No offices, no job sites
Homes are all we do
Residential Cleaning for real life.
We're a residential cleaning company, full stop. We don't split our attention between office parks and apartments. Everything we've learned over the years has been in people's homes, which is a very different job. Homes have pets, kids, houseplants, a favorite mug that can't go in the dishwasher, a closet you'd rather we didn't open.
That's why we ask about your place before we show up instead of after. Allergies in the household? We'll skip the strong scents. The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America points out that dust mites and indoor irritants are among the biggest asthma triggers in closed-up apartments, and Midtown West buildings run their heat hard from October through April. Regular residential cleaning cuts that build-up down a lot.
We also handle Rental Property Cleaning and AirBnB Cleaning Service work for hosts near Times Square and the Javits Center, where turnovers happen fast and guests notice everything. See rental property cleaning and short-term rental cleaning.
Top to bottom, inside out
Deep Cleaning that reaches everything.
Every Midtown West apartment has spots a weekly wipe-down never touches. Inside the oven and the fridge. Behind the couch. Baseboards, door frames, light fixtures, cabinet interiors, window tracks that collect Ninth Avenue soot all summer, and the radiator dust that piles up every heating season.
A Deep Cleaning gets all of it. We take longer, we bring more, and we go in a specific order so nothing gets recontaminated. Michael D. booked one during a bad allergy stretch and told us afterward the air in his place actually felt different. That's usually what people notice first, before they notice the baseboards.
It's also the smartest first visit before starting any recurring plan, and the right call before a party, a new roommate, or a family member moving in. Compare what a deep cleaning includes against the standard list, or book deep cleaning in New York City directly. For a seperate seasonal reset, our spring cleaning visit is built on the same bones.
Deposit-ready standard Empty-home turnovers
Before the keys change hands
Move in and Move out Cleaning without the panic.
Moving in this neighborhood is its own sport. Elevator reservations, tight loading windows on the avenues, a super who needs 48 hours notice. The last thing anybody wants after the truck pulls away is to be scrubbing an oven at 11pm.
Our move-out cleaning follows the checklists Manhattan landlords actually use at the final walkthrough: inside the oven, inside the fridge, inside every cabinet and drawer, closet shelves, window sills, baseboards, and the the floors last. Ashley P. told us her refrigerator sparkled and her oven looked new, and she passed inspection with zero deductions.
Moving in instead? We come before the boxes so your first night is in a genuinely clean place, not somebody else's leftovers. If you're a landlord or host handling a turnover between tenants, our turnover cleaning keeps units rent-ready. Tenants can also brush up on their rights and building standards through NYC Housing Preservation & Development. Use code MOVE30 to save $30 on move-in or move-out cleaning, and check the move-out cleaning checklist first.
Ongoing care
Recurring Cleaning on your schedule.
The cleanest apartments in Midtown West are not scrubbed harder, they're just cleaned on a rhythm. Weekly, every other week, or monthly. Once cleaning has a spot on the calendar, it stops being a thing you feel guilty about at 10pm on a Sunday.
Recurring clients get priority scheduling, better per-visit pricing, and the same cleaner as often as we can arrange it. Thomas W. set up standing visits for his elderly parents so their kitchen and bathrooms stay safe and sanitary without anybody having to ask. Other clients just want their Saturday back.
You can skip, pause, or reschedule any visit under our rescheduling policy. Nothing is locked in. See plan pricing on the pricing page or start a recurring cleaning plan.
No commitment Same Day Cleaning Service often available
Just this once is fine
One Time Cleaning with zero strings.
Plenty of people book us exactly once and that's completely fine. A guest arriving during Fashion Week. An engagement party in a loft on West 39th. An open house where the co-op needs to photograph well. Thanksgiving with fourteen people in a two-bedroom.
A One Time Cleaning is a full visit with no plan attached, no minimum, and no cancellation trap. You pick the date, you see the flat price, you book. Our Same Day Cleaning Service can occassionally squeeze you in when a slot opens up, which has saved more than a few Midtown West hosts a few hours before guests arrive. Call us and we'll tell you straight whether we can make it work.
After a party, our after-party cleaning handles the glasses, the sticky floor, and the confetti nobody thinks about until morning. Book a one-time cleaning or check same-day availability.
More ways we clean around Midtown West.

★★★★★
"I was hosting a large family dinner for Thanksgiving and our apartment was a disaster zone from my work-from-home setup. The team arrived with all the necessary supplies and deep-cleaned our oven, floors, and living area, leaving everything sparkling. The end result was an immaculate home that made our holiday gathering a stress-free success."
★★★★★
"After a minor basement flood, we were left with damp carpets and a lingering musty smell that I couldn't tackle alone. The service did an amazing job cleaning and deodorizing the affected areas, restoring the air quality in our home. Their detailed house cleaning saved us from the stress of dealing with water damage aftermath."
★★★★★
"I had a severe respiratory flare-up due to allergy season and knew I needed a serious deep clean to get rid of pet dander and dust. This company came in and performed a phenomenal deep clean, scrubbing baseboards and thoroughly vacuuming every corner. After their house cleaning, the air felt so much cleaner, and I could finally breathe easier."
★★★★★
"My husband and I were hosting our engagement party at our loft and the place was a cluttered mess. The service was incredibly efficient, tidying up the clutter and making the space look gallery-ready. Their house cleaning was flawless, and our guests were impressed with how beautiful and clean our home looked."
★★★★★
"We are selling our co-op and needed the apartment to shine for a real estate open house. The team cleaned the windows and scrubbed the grout in the bathroom, making our entire home look brand new. Their expert house cleaning was instrumental in making the space look incredibly inviting to potential buyers."
★★★★★
"I had a house guest arriving later that night for Fashion Week and didn't have time to prepare. The cleaning service did a fantastic job at the last minute, removing all the clutter and making my tiny apartment feel fresh and spacious. I am so relieved I found this service for my house cleaning needs."
★★★★★
"My elderly parents have mobility issues and can no longer manage the upkeep of their home. I booked this service for them, and the team was so respectful and kind while doing a thorough clean of the kitchen and bathrooms. This house cleaning service took a huge weight off our shoulders and made their home safe and sanitary again."
★★★★★
"I was dealing with a divorce and felt completely drained, letting my apartment fall into a state of disarray. The cleaning crew came in and restored order to my life by making my space beautiful and functional again. Their compassionate house cleaning helped me feel like I had a fresh start in my own home."
★★★★★
"A family member was recovering from surgery and staying with us, so I needed a sanitized, spotless environment. The company used hospital-grade cleaners to ensure the entire house was hygienic and comfortable. This is the best house cleaning service in the city for getting a place truly germ-free."

Questions and answers
The details before you book.
These are the questions Midtown West clients ask us most. Every answer is open by default, so nothing is hidden behind a click. Still curious? Our full FAQ page goes deeper, and preparing for your cleaning covers the day-of details.
What does a house cleaning service in Midtown West include? 01
Every standard visit covers the kitchen (counters, backsplash, stovetop, sink, appliance exteriors, cabinet fronts), the bathrooms (tub, shower, tile, toilet, vanity, mirrors, fixtures), and all living areas and bedrooms (dusting, surfaces, glass, beds made). Then floors are vacuumed and mopped throughout and trash goes out. Add-ons like inside the oven, inside the fridge, interior windows, and laundry are available at booking. Full detail lives on the standard cleaning checklist and the complete cleaning checklist.
Do you work with doorman buildings and walk-ups here? 02
Both, constantly. Midtown West is a real mix of pre-war walk-ups and newer towers. We check in at the front desk, follow vendor sign-in rules, and can provide a certificate of insurance if your building or condo board asks for one. Walk-ups are no problem and never cost extra. Just tell us the floor and whether there's an elevator when you book.
Do I need to be home during the cleaning? 03
No, and most of our Midtown West clients aren't. Doorman handoff, a lockbox, or a smart-lock code all work fine. Add the access instructions in your booking notes and we take it from there. If you'd rather be home the first time to walk the team through your place, that's welcome too. See preparing for your cleaning for the short pre-visit rundown.
Can I book same-day cleaning in Midtown West? 04
Often, yes. It depends entirely on that day's route and how full the schedule is. Guest arriving tonight? Book online or call (646) 825-3550 and we'll tell you straight whether we can make it work. Guests near Times Square and the Javits Center book us same-day more than anybody else in the city. Details on our same-day cleaning page. Booking a day or two ahead always gives you more time slots.
How much does house cleaning cost in Midtown West? 05
Standard cleanings start at $150, and the final flat rate depends on how many bedrooms and bathrooms you have, the type of clean, and any add-ons. You see the whole number before you confirm the booking, not after we finish. New clients save 10% with code NEW10, and a flexible arrival window saves another 5% with code FLEXIBLE on every visit. Full breakdown on the pricing page.
How does move-out cleaning work in this neighborhood? 06
Your apartment should be empty, or close to it, so we can get inside cabinets, the oven, the fridge, and every corner a landlord checks at the walkthrough. Tell us about elevator reservations, loading dock windows, or super access when you book, since a lot of Midtown West buildings require notice. Follow the move-out cleaning checklist to see the full scope, and use code MOVE30 to save $30 on any move-in or move-out cleaning.
Do you clean AirBnB and short-term rentals? 07
Yes. Our AirBnB Cleaning Service handles turnovers for hosts around Times Square, Hudson Yards, and the Theater District, where checkout and check-in can be four hours apart. Linens swapped, bathrooms reset, kitchen restocked to your list, trash out, and photos sent if you want confirmation. See short-term rental cleaning, the rental cleaning checklist, and turnover cleaning.
Can you sanitize after somebody in the house was sick? 08
Yes. After a cold, the flu, or a surgery recovery, we focus on high-touch surfaces: door handles, light switches, faucets, remotes, railings, and bathroom fixtures. Brian S. booked exactly this when a family member was recovering at his place and needed a truly hygienic space. Add a note at booking and we'll prioritize disinfection over cosmetic work that visit.
What if I'm not happy with the clean? 09
Tell us within 24 hours and we come back and re-clean the areas in question at no charge. No argument, no invoice. That's the promise on every visit in every borough. Read the full satisfaction guarantee, or reach us through contact us if something needs sorting out.
