Victorian, Shingle
and Colonial.
Swarthmore grew from the 1880s as commuter tracts on both sides of the railroad. Most homes predate 1960, and most are owner-occupied single houses.
Victorian, Shingle style and Colonial houses, most of them substantial, line the borough’s streets. Count every floor and bathroom when you book, so we plan enough time.
A smattering of mid-20th-century houses sits among the older ones. Newer layouts often go faster, so tell us which kind of house you have.
Plenty of homes here have four bedrooms or more. Guest rooms nobody uses can be skipped or rotated week to week. Just say which.
A share of Swarthmore homes are in buildings of five units or more. Moving out of one? Add the entry, stairs and elevator details.
Three cleanings
for older houses.
For the substantial Victorian and Shingle style houses, when the whole place needs a reset from the top floor down to the basement.

Is Swarthmore part of Springfield Township?
Not since 1893. Until the end of the 1800s the area was a section of Springfield Township, known informally as Westdale, and the borough was incorporated on March 6, 1893. Its present boundaries date from 1931. We clean in the borough and in Springfield, so the booking form only needs your street address.
Do you clean the big older houses on the college-named streets?
Yes. Most Swarthmore streets carry college names, Harvard, Yale, Vassar and Haverford among them, and they’re lined with Victorian, Shingle style and Colonial houses, many of them substantial. Bigger houses take longer, so tell us the floors and bathrooms you want done. For a first visit, a deep clean is usually the right start.
Where do the cleaners park in downtown Swarthmore?
At a meter, in your driveway, or wherever you point us. Downtown meters run from 30 minutes to 12 hours and are enforced 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday. A full clean can outlast a short meter, so mention any driveway space in your booking notes.
Do you clean apartments near the station and the college?
Yes. The station sits between the Swarthmore College campus and the town center, and the tract the college sold in 1891 holds today’s business district. Homes and apartments on both sides of the tracks are in our area. Moving out of a unit near campus? Book a move-out clean and add the building’s entry details.
