San Pedro is a neighborhood of Los Angeles rather than a city of its own, and it cleans like the port town it grew up as: old houses on steep streets above the harbor.

MaidSimple is a residential cleaning company serving San Pedro, California. This is part of the City of Los Angeles, not a separate municipality, and the housing shows its age: hillside blocks of early-1900s Craftsman, Queen Anne and Spanish Revival homes above the water. Our cleaners are W-2, background-screened and self-supplied. A three-bed, two-bath on the hill is about at99.85 per clean. Coverage spans 90731 and 90732, Vinegar Hill out to South Shores.
The oldest residential blocks sit right above the harbor and they have not been rebuilt. Vinegar Hill holds houses put up between 1886 and 1927 — Queen Anne, American Foursquare, Craftsman — and Vista del Oro and the streets near Averill Park fill in the twenties through the fifties with Spanish and California bungalows. Original woodwork, picture rails, transoms and unsealed fir floors are ordinary here, not a feature somebody added.
The terrain does the rest. Streets climb hard between the waterfront and Point Fermin, driveways are short or nonexistent, and plenty of houses put the garage below the living floor with a run of exterior steps up to the door. Marine air off the harbor keeps window frames damp and puts a salt haze on anything facing the water. We plan a visit around the steps and the sills as much as the square footage.
Expect 1,200 to 2,000 square feet on two levels, built before 1955, with original detail intact more often than not: fir or oak floors, wood casings, hexagonal bathroom tile, sometimes leaded glass. Foundations are raised rather than slab, so floors flex and dust settles in the register grilles. Hillside lots add exterior stairs and split entries. Down by the water, mid-century apartments and condos around Point Fermin add a lighter, faster kind of visit to the mix.
No estimates and no ranges. This is what the quote form will tell you, worked out the same way.

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.
The small things that decide whether a visit runs smoothly or runs late.
Streets on the hill are narrow, steeply pitched and often permit-signed, and many houses have no off-street parking at all. Tell us where the crew should stop and whether a legal two-hour space exists nearby, so equipment gets carried up once.
Wind off the port carries salt and a fine industrial haze that settles on water-facing windows, screens and metal rails. On the seaward elevations we clean interior glass, sills and tracks every time, because left alone it hardens into a film a normal wipe will not shift.
Vinegar Hill and Vista del Oro houses still carry original grout, unsealed fir and painted wood casings from before the First World War. Water sitting in a seam swells them, so those surfaces get a dry pass, spot damp work and a towel behind it.

The whole-home refresh most San Pedro homes book: kitchens, bathrooms, floors, dusting and tidying.
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.
Regularly. It is normal on these hillside lots and it does not change the price, which is set by rooms rather than by the approach. What helps is knowing roughly how many steps there are and whether a side or garage-level entrance is easier, so the crew stages equipment in the right place.
Vacuum with a bare-floor head, then a barely damp cloth only where something needs lifting, then dry immediately. Old fir and oak in these houses take up water through the seams and cup, and a steam mop is the fastest way to ruin one. If a floor has been refinished, say so and we can move quicker.
Yes, and they are a different job. Those units are usually one level with sealed hard flooring and sit lower in the range, but they take on more salt film on the ocean side than an inland place of the same size. If the building has a call box or a garage gate, send the code when you book.
