How we clean Cambrian Park
A house here is typically 1,100 to 1,400 square feet, three bedrooms and two baths, on a flat rectangular lot with a lawn at the front. What makes them interesting to work in is the remodeling. Owners who intend to stay have taken out the wall between kitchen and living room, run plank flooring wall to wall, and traded tubs for glass-doored showers. The result is a small house with an unbroken stretch of hard floor.
The school calendar sets the rhythm. Bookings shift earlier in September and bunch up in the two weeks before winter break, and Union Avenue and Camden Avenue back up with pickup traffic around three. Crews take addresses on these streets in the morning where they can, which suits how many people around here are working from a spare bedroom by afternoon.
What we walk into in Cambrian Park
One floor, slab on grade, and a footprint you can walk in under a minute. Since roughly 2010 the standard remodel has swapped carpet for luxury vinyl plank throughout, and that surface dulls if it is over-wetted, so it wants a damp mop rather than a wet one. Original oak survives in a minority of houses. Attached two-car garages are usual and often converted to a room, which adds a bedroom to the count without adding a bathroom.
