The Top 10 Most Common Cleaning Requests
1. Kitchen Deep Cleaning (78% of requests)
Kitchens are the heart of Hanover homes, and they take the most abuse:
- Grease buildup: Range hoods, backsplashes, and cabinet fronts
- Appliance interiors: Ovens, microwaves, and refrigerators
- Cabinet cleaning: Inside and out, including hardware
- Countertop deep clean: Granite, quartz, and butcher block care
- Floor restoration: Removing built-up grime from tile grout
Why it's so common: Daily cooking creates layers of grease and grime that regular wiping can't address. Most homeowners underestimate how much buildup accumulates over time.
Our expertise advantage: We know exactly which products work best on different surfaces without causing damage, and our systematic approach ensures nothing gets missed.
2. Bathroom Sanitization and Restoration (71% of requests)
