Cleaning Bellingham homes since 2013, from the Fairhaven Victorians to the WWU rentals
Bellingham is an old town by Washington standards and you can tell from the houses. A lot of what we clean here has been standing a long time ‐ the brick and the Victorians down in Fairhaven, the Craftsman bungalows up through Columbia and the Lettered Streets and South Hill, the student rentals packed in around Western, and then the newer builds going up on the north end by Cordata. So an 1890s house on the hill and a four-bedroom rental full of college kids and a brand new place off Cordata are three completely different jobs, and we plan each one around the house that’s actually in front of us. And we’re this far north and this close to the water, so everything here is a little damp and a little mossy, which changes what a clean even means. NW Maids has cleaned Bellingham and Whatcom County since 2013 and we’ve done more than 40,000 homes around Puget Sound and Portland. You get a flat rate you see before you book, and if we miss something we come back and clean it again for free.

All you have to do is choose the cleaning service you need
Home Cleaning
A regular one-time clean with a checklist you set room by room. Same flat price, nothing tacked on after.
Apartment and Condo Cleaning
For the apartments and student places near campus and downtown. Leave us the gate code or the parking and elevator situation when you book or the first fifteen minutes get spent standing outside your building.
Deep Cleaning
Usually the right first visit if the place hasn’t had a full reset in a while. Older Bellingham homes hold older grime, so we get in the oven, inside the cabinets, along the baseboards and trim, into the window tracks and the sashes, and up to the light fixtures. This is where we dig out the stuff that’s been quietly building up in a house that’s been lived in for decades.
Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning
There’s a ton of rentals here because of Western, so we do these constantly, every summer especially. A move-out is a different job than a normal clean because you’re not really cleaning for a person, you’re cleaning for whoever walks through with the checklist and the deposit on the line. So we clean it for what actually gets looked at.
Recurring Cleaning
This is what most of our Bellingham clients end up on. Weekly, biweekly, or monthly. You pick your favorite Pros and we do our best to send them every time, and after a couple visits they already know which of the old windows stick and where the moss likes to sneak in by the back door. The discount is real and it comes off every single clean and not just the first one ‐ 10% monthly, 15% biweekly, 20% weekly.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should you clean an apartment?
There is no easy answer to this question since there is no one-size-fits-all solution to apartment cleaning. It basically all depends on your personal preferences and lifestyle. If you like to have your home in Bellingham neat and fresh but lead a busy life that leaves little time for daily cleaning, ideally you’d want to book a weekly cleaning service and your living space will stay fresh year-round.

While our maids always look to leave the best impression and forge a lasting bond with our clients, certain things don’t fall within the scope of their services, including:
• Cleaning up after your pets

What is the difference between deep cleaning and general cleaning?
General or recurring cleaning is a maid service that is designed to keep the home fresh through regular weekly or bi-weekly appointments. On the other hand, deep cleaning is a one-time service that addresses commonly overlooked areas like behind appliances and underneath the furniture. People mostly book deep cleaning to spruce up their homes after or before a party, as part of a seasonal refresh, or when their homes haven’t been tackled by professionals in a long time.
