Barrel tile, arched openings, coved plaster and floors laid before 1940. Cheviot Hills has held on to more of its original material than nearly any set of streets on this side of the city.

MaidSimple works throughout Cheviot Hills, California, cleaning houses, condos and townhomes. Most of what stands here went up between the mid 1920s and the early 1950s, in Spanish Colonial, Tudor Revival and traditional plans on curving, tree-shaded blocks. Original tile, plaster and lightly finished hardwood call for low-moisture methods and neutral products, never harsh chemicals. Cleaners are payroll employees, background-checked and , equipment included. A three-bedroom is about from99.85 per clean, covering 90064 plus adjoining blocks in 90034 and 90035.
What makes this neighborhood a pleasure to work in is also what makes it slow. Bathrooms still carry their original glazed field tile with narrow, unsealed joints. Entry floors are Saltillo or decorative Malibu tile. Walls are plaster with coved edges, and the oak downstairs is often shellac or wax rather than a modern factory finish. None of that forgives a wet mop or a bleach-based product, so it gets vacuumed, damp-passed with a neutral solution, then dried behind.
The other striking thing is the consistency. Blocks between Motor Avenue and Rancho Park Golf Course roll gently, the ficus and sycamore canopy is old and heavy, and one house is a fair guide to the next: three or four bedrooms, two floors more often than one, a detached garage at the back of a driveway. That predictability is why a visit here can be quoted on the hours it takes.
Two-story traditionals and single-story Spanish bungalows sit on lots of six to nine thousand square feet, mostly 1,800 to 3,000 square feet of house. Arched doorways, plaster niches, tiled stair risers, crank casement windows, hardwood beneath most of the plan. Mature street trees drop leaf litter and fine seed onto porches and window ledges in every month of the year. Additions are widespread, so a 1931 front half frequently opens into a modern kitchen with completely different surfaces.

You pay for the time it takes: the hours we plan at $99.95 an hour for every recurring clean, or $117.59 an hour just once. Supplies and equipment included. Anything extra you tick — inside the oven, the fridge, baseboards in full — adds its time at the same rate, and a deeper clean or a move-out is simply more hours. Slide the hours before you book if you know your home better than we do.
Details a crew only knows once they have worked a neighbourhood properly.
Original bathroom and entry tile here was laid with narrow joints that were never sealed. Flooding them makes them darker rather than cleaner. Crews work the joint by hand with a soft brush and a neutral solution, then dry it off.
Ficus, sycamore and jacaranda along these blocks shed something in every season. Porches, sills, window channels and the tops of exterior door frames collect it and it walks indoors, so entry-area work belongs in the standard visit.
A great many houses pair a 1930s front with a rebuilt kitchen and primary bath. That puts two sets of materials in one visit: waxed oak and plaster in the older rooms, engineered stone and lacquered cabinetry in the new ones.

How it works →Most cleaning companies send whoever is available that day. Our cleaners are our own background-checked, W-2 employees — which costs us more in payroll tax and workers’ comp, and is exactly why the standard holds: we employ them and dispatch them ourselves.
Every maid is on our payroll and background-checked before she sets foot in your home. If anything’s not right, tell us and we come back and put it right — you don’t pay twice.
The general FAQ covers access, supplies, rescheduling and paying.
Dry first, damp second, and never with anything acidic or chlorine-based. Glazed field tile is washed with a pH-neutral solution and the grout worked by hand rather than saturated. Plaster walls and coved ceilings get dusted with microfiber on an extension pole, since they mark easily and cannot be scrubbed the way drywall can.
The garage interior can be added to a booking, and it comes up often here because so many are original single-car structures now used for storage. It is quoted separately from the house, since it is a clear-and-sweep job more than a surface clean. Driveways, paths and other hardscape fall outside what we do.
Yes, though it does not cost more for the same room count. Waxed floors, unsealed grout and plaster all want a slower, gentler pass, and rooms in these houses are separated by doorways rather than opening into each other. We size the crew so the extra time comes out of our scheduling instead of your quote.
