When an empty home in Çamlıköy, Kaş needs cleaning before move-in, should kitchen cabinets, bathrooms, or floors come first? Planning while the property is still unfurnished helps separate accessible surfaces from areas that may become dusty again later. CGS Temizlik is based at Sütçüler Mahallesi 15 Temmuz Şehitler Cd No109/D, Kepez/Antalya; scope can be discussed according to the address and access conditions by calling 0537 4450191.
Set the work order before moving in
The purpose of an empty-home clean is not only visible cleanliness. It is also an opportunity to plan access to cabinet interiors, edges along walls, and fixed surfaces before furniture arrives. Start by identifying any remaining items, packaging, or bulky debris. If construction residue is present, the distinction between debris removal and fine dust work should be discussed as part of post-construction cleaning.
A practical sequence can move from high to low: cabinet interiors and tops, doors and fixed surfaces, kitchen and bathroom areas, then floors. Windows may be handled early or near the end. However, if there is paint residue, mortar residue, or a suspected scratch around the glass, the surface needs assessment before choosing a method. If there will be time between cleaning and the moving date, include the possibility of dust returning in the plan.
Describe living spaces and wet areas separately
For living rooms, bedrooms, corridors, and entrances, note the floor type, skirting boards, doors, window surrounds, and empty cabinets separately. In a kitchen, cabinet interiors, counters, sink, cooker area, and access behind appliances can each change the scope. In bathrooms and toilets, fittings, tiles, shower areas, drain surroundings, and ventilation surfaces are not one single task.
Where a surface shows staining, dullness, scratching, or a coating concern, avoid assuming a definite cause. Share the material information and any manufacturer care instructions available. Sensitive coatings, natural stone, wood-effect flooring, and glass should not be assigned a cleaning method before their suitability is assessed.

Match other needs to the right service
Home cleaning covers furnished or regularly used living areas. Office and workplace cleaning requires clear limits around electronics and documents. Apartment and site cleaning concerns shared stairs, landings, and entrances; villa cleaning is planned around floors, rooms, stairs, and windows. Upholstery cleaning depends on the fabric label and ventilation. Window cleaning is assessed for accessible glass and frames; pool maintenance is not included.
Practical checklist before the work
- Check whether water and electricity can be used.
- Share key access, entry time, parking, or building-entry details.
- List areas you want included, such as cabinet interiors, behind appliances, balconies, windows, and floors.
- Point out remaining belongings, sensitive surfaces, or suspected scratches and coatings in advance.
- Keep the cleaning schedule separate from the moving team where possible, leaving time for a final walkthrough.
Walk through the home together after cleaning
A room-by-room review keeps the agreed scope clear. In living areas, check cabinet interiors, door surrounds, and floors; in the kitchen, cabinets, counters, and sink; and in wet areas, the shower zone, basin, toilet, and drain surroundings. If an area could not be reached because of a fixed item, access issue, or surface sensitivity, clarify it during the same review. Leaving the home clear for ventilation and final placement before furniture arrives can also be useful.
Do cabinets need to be completely empty before cleaning?
Cabinets intended for interior cleaning should be empty and accessible so the scope is clear. If belongings remain in the home, identify in advance which sections can be handled.
Why should kitchens and bathrooms be checked separately?
These areas contain different materials, fixed fittings, and surfaces exposed to water. Reviewing cabinet interiors, fittings, sink areas, shower zones, and drain surroundings separately makes the final check more specific.
