We clean homes all over Smyrna

What Smyrna houses need from a cleaner

Smyrna started as a small railroad town, and it grew fast after the Nissan plant opened. You can see both parts of that history in the houses. Close to the old downtown there are brick ranches with hardwood floors and small bathrooms, where the tile has been scrubbed for decades. Farther out, most streets are subdivisions of brick-front and vinyl-sided houses with open kitchens that run straight into the living room.

Open floor plans are easy to live in and harder to keep clean. Cooking grease drifts out of the kitchen and lands on cabinet tops and the nearest ceiling fan. Dog hair moves through one big room instead of staying behind a door. Many newer houses here also have tall great rooms. The ledges and fan blades up there are out of reach from the floor, so dust sits on them for months.

The older ranches need gentler work on the floors and harder work in the bathrooms. Old hardwood should be cleaned with a damp mop, never soaked, or the boards swell and the finish turns cloudy. Old bathroom grout holds a gray film of soap, and it takes real scrubbing to lift it. When you call Lauren, tell her what matters most in your house, and the crew cleans to that.

What Smyrna weather brings into the house

Spring in Middle Tennessee puts a yellow coat of pollen on cars and porches. It does not stay outside. It rides in on shoes and pet fur, and it blows through any window left open on a nice day. Then it settles on window sills and baseboards as a fine film. If someone in your house has allergies, wiping that film away in spring helps more than people expect.

The ground around Smyrna is heavy clay, and after a good rain it turns into sticky mud. Newer subdivisions get the worst of it, since the grass is still filling in and some lots nearby are still bare dirt. That mud dries on the entry tile and gets ground into the rug by the back door. Left there, it stains grout and leaves a gray path across the carpet. We give the front entry and the floor by the garage door extra time for that reason.

Summers here are hot and humid, and bathrooms show it first. A shower that never fully dries grows pink and black film in the corners and along the caulk. The air conditioning runs for months and pulls dust through the house, and gray fuzz builds up on the vent covers. A cleaning every two weeks stops the shower film before it sets in. It also keeps the vents and fan blades from turning into a big job.

Who comes to clean your Smyrna house

We are the Gomez family, and Music City House Cleaning is our business. Our independent crew is based in College Grove, and Smyrna is over the county line in Rutherford County. Lauren Gomez schedules the cleanings, so she is the person you talk to when you book. We are licensed and insured. Our tagline says what we are after in every house: making home, home again.

Plenty of our customers keep us on a schedule, such as a cleaning every two weeks. Others call when they need a single cleaning, like before family comes to stay. Smyrna has grown fast and houses change hands often, so we clean empty homes for move-outs and move-ins. We also clean luxury homes over four thousand square feet. Vacation rentals and commercial spaces are on our list too.

Two customers put it in their own words on our website. Karen Bryan wrote this. "Having them clean our home every two weeks makes our lives run smoother and helps our whole family stay in order." Amy DeFrietas wrote this. "I highly recommend Music City House Cleaning to those in need of a one-off or regularly scheduled cleanings." If you want that kind of help in Smyrna, call Lauren. Tell her about your house.

Getting a price in Smyrna

We do not post prices, because a small brick ranch near downtown and a big two-story house on the edge of town are different jobs. Call Lauren at (615) 436-2560, or send us a message through the request form on this page. Tell her how big the house is and how often you want us there. You get a quote before the first cleaning, so you know the price going in.
