Two homes of the same size rarely need the same work. In one, the furniture is gone and the cupboards are empty; in the other there is a glass-fronted cabinet, fabric chairs and a window wall running from floor to ceiling. If you are arranging cleaning in Mehmetçik Mahallesi, part of Muratpaşa, the first useful step is being able to say which of those two your home resembles. When the address, floor layout and access are clear, the scope becomes clear too.
The eight services at a glance
Home cleaning covers kitchen, bathroom and living areas. Office cleaning covers workspaces, shared areas and toilets, with limits agreed for electronics and documents. Post-construction cleaning separates coarse debris from fine cleaning. Empty flat cleaning covers cupboard interiors, bathroom, kitchen and floors. Apartment and site cleaning covers stairs, landings and entrances. Villa cleaning sets an order for floors, rooms and stairs; pool maintenance is not included. Upholstery washing follows the fabric label. Glass cleaning is limited to reachable panes and frames.
Why floors and large windows are planned separately
In a multi-storey villa cleaning job, moving through the house in a set order works better than jumping between levels. If dusting continues upstairs while wet work is done below, dust travelling down the stairwell can settle on a floor that was just finished. So the order of floors, the stage at which the staircase is handled and which rooms stay closed are discussed in advance.
Large glass surfaces are a separate item. A window wall spanning a living room is not comparable to an ordinary pane in either time or access: whether a ladder is needed, whether the outer face can be reached safely and the condition of the frames are all assessed beforehand. No commitment is made for risky façade or height work. If glass shows scratches, hazing or patchy areas, these may be coating marks, manufacturing traces or surface damage; telling them apart requires an expert assessment on site, not a quick test at home. The scope of glass cleaning follows from that assessment.
Protecting items in a furnished home
During home cleaning in a furnished property, the real question is what gets moved and what is left alone. Polished wood, natural stone counters, matt painted walls, screens and upholstery fabrics call for different products and methods. If the manufacturer's care instructions are unknown, no method is assumed to be suitable for that surface; the decision is made only after seeing a label or instruction. For upholstery, the fabric label is checked, a suitable method chosen and ventilation planned; complete stain removal cannot be promised.
Stating special requests clearly beforehand
"Please clean everywhere" tells no one anything about the most delicate object in the room. Specific wording helps: which cupboards should be opened, which room stays untouched, which painting or display glass must not be handled, which floor should not get wet cleaning. Document destruction, paperwork filing and electronic repair are not cleaning services.
Checkpoints before and after
- Before: number of floors and rooms, staircase condition, location and access of large glass surfaces.
- Before: personal and breakable items collected, a written do-not-touch list.
- Before: water and electricity access, parking and entrance arrangements.
- After: glass and frames viewed in daylight; wet floors allowed to dry before walking.
- After: any missed spot mentioned before the team leaves.
Can glass work and floor-by-floor cleaning happen in one visit?
It depends on access and the number of panes. Share the address and floor details and the scope is set together: CGS Temizlik, 0537 445 01 91, Sütçüler Mahallesi 15 Temmuz Şehitler Cd No109/D Kepez/Antalya.
How should I flag items that must not be touched?
Naming them room by room is clearest, and leaving a small note on those items avoids confusion on the day.
