Question 1

Do you specialize in cleaning Hudson, NY brownstones?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Hudson brownstones are one of our core specialties. We've cleaned restored Italianates on Warren Street, Federal-era townhouses on Union, and renovated row houses on Allen and Columbia. Our teams are trained on heritage materials: original wood, plaster, marble, and antique metal hardware.

Question 2

How is brownstone cleaning different from regular house cleaning?

Accepted Answer

Brownstones have surfaces that modern homes don't: unsealed original wood, soft marble mantels, lime plaster walls, brass and bronze fixtures, and decorative molding that traps decades of dust. Wrong products etch marble, dull brass, or warp pine. We use pH-neutral plant-based cleaners, microfiber-only application, and dry-dusting techniques specifically designed for 150-year-old finishes.

Question 3

Can you clean original hardwood floors without damaging them?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Hudson brownstones almost always have original wide-plank pine, oak, or heart-pine floors — often unfinished or with century-old shellac. We use barely-damp microfiber, never wet-mop, and apply wood-specific pH-neutral cleaner only when needed. We never use steam, never use vinegar, and never use Murphy's Oil Soap on original finishes.

Question 4

Do you handle multi-floor brownstones (parlor, garden, upper floors)?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Most Hudson brownstones are 3–4 stories with parlor, garden, and bedroom levels plus a basement and roof access. We price fairly per home — not by deceptive square footage — and assign appropriately sized crews so your full brownstone is finished in a single visit.

Question 5

Can you clean my brownstone while I'm away?

Accepted Answer

Yes — most of our Hudson brownstone clients are weekenders. We hold keys securely, coordinate with your caretaker or property manager, send before/after photos, and can prep the home for your Friday arrival or reset it after Sunday departure.

Question 6

Are your products safe for antique furniture and finishes?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Everything we use is plant-based, non-toxic, fragrance-free on request, and tested on heritage finishes. We don't use harsh solvents, ammonia, bleach near brass, or anything acidic near marble. If your brownstone has been restored with specific products, we'll match them.

Question 7

How much does brownstone cleaning cost in Hudson, NY?

Accepted Answer

Standard cleans are flat-rate by bedroom count: $180 (1BR), $285 (2BR), $350 (3BR), and $475 (4BR). Deep cleans, post-construction cleans, and full restoration cleans range $325–$775 depending on size and scope.
