Redwoods shade most of Mill Valley, which is lovely and also means needle litter on every threshold, moss on the north side of the house, and bathrooms that never quite dry out between visits.

Homeowners in Mill Valley, California book MaidSimple for house cleaning and maid service. Everyone who cleans here is a W-2 employee, screened before hire. Homes run from small canyon cottages off Blithedale to larger places in Homestead Valley and Old Mill, most of them on narrow lanes under heavy tree cover. Honest pricing on a three-bedroom is about at99.85 per clean, supplies included. 94941 covers the whole city.
Damp is the through-line. A house on the canyon floor near Old Mill Park can go weeks in winter with no direct sun on it, and that turns up as mildew in the grout, a bloom along north-facing sills, and a musty note in closets backing onto a hillside. Crews carry different chemistry here than they would in a dry inland town, and more of the visit goes on bathrooms and less on dusting.
The second problem is what arrives on shoes. Redwood duff, bay leaves and tanoak litter drift onto decks and travel through the house all year. Homestead Valley and the lanes climbing above Throckmorton are the worst for it. We open those visits at the entries and work inward, instead of finishing at the door and walking the debris back across a floor we have already done.
Almost nothing here was built to a tract plan. The oldest cottages date to the 1890s summer-camp era, the bulk of the stock is 1920s through 1970s custom infill, and nearly every house steps with the slope: split levels, half-flights, a deck off the main floor. Hardwood and tile dominate and carpet is uncommon. Lots are wooded and narrow, driveways are steep and short, and a number of streets are barely one car wide.
These come out of the same pricing engine as the form above. The quote is the price.

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.
Local detail is the difference between a crew that shows up and a crew that knows what it is walking into.
Streets in Blithedale Canyon and above Old Mill Park run single-lane with nowhere to turn around. We leave the vehicle where it is legal and safe and walk in with a hand kit. It costs a few minutes and avoids blocking a neighbor’s only way out.
North-facing steps, deck boards and window frames grow a film that a dry dusting will not shift. Those surfaces get treated wet. We also sweep the entry deck before coming inside so the litter does not follow us across the floors.
Miller Avenue and East Blithedale back up hard at drop-off and again mid-afternoon. Most homes here get a mid-morning slot for that reason, which conveniently lands after the fog has lifted off the windows.

How it works →Baseboards, inside appliances, grout and vents — the same clean with more hours, at the same rate.
How it works →Empty-home cleaning for deposits and handovers — more hours, the same rate.
How it works →Weekly, every 2 weeks or every 4 weeks, at the advertised rate every clean.
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.
We treat it as a standing item rather than a one-off. Bathrooms with no direct sun, window reveals and closet walls on the uphill side get an anti-mildew product on every recurring visit, not only on deep cleans. Where growth is already established at the first visit, one deep clean resets a baseline the regular schedule can then hold.
Yes, both sit inside 94941 and we work them like the rest of the city. Homestead Valley holds the older, smaller houses and the tightest lanes; Tam Valley is flatter, with more postwar single-level homes and actual driveways. The quote follows your room count, not which side of the freeway you are on.
We clean the interior and sweep or wipe the deck areas immediately outside doors, since that is where debris gets in. Full deck washing, railing scrubs and outdoor furniture sit outside a standard visit. Ask when you book and we will tell you exactly what is in and what is not.
