What People Are Saying
“Our family worked with Charles for almost a year. He is a thoughtful, generous, and detail-oriented individual both in his work and with others. As a family of four with two young kids, he brought sanity to the chaos of our home - not only cleaning but organizing as well! He was also always to kind to our kids, which was very special. We miss him and would certainly recommend his to others!”
— Kim S. & David H.
"Owning a barbershop can get quite messy and it’s easy to fall behind while running a business. Luckily I had hired Charley who kept the shop clean and organized! It always felt so nice showing up in the morning to rejuvenated space. He’s quick with a joke and has an eye for design. I always looked forward to my monthly visit and detailed cleaning!"
— Tommy R., Ransom Studio
“Charles serviced my home, Airbnb unit, annex house, and school building over a 2 period. He was an excellent cleaner, paid great attention to detail, and was often helpful with solutions for various domestic conundrums I had. He is considerate, trustworthy and dependable.”
— Megan H., Madrona School
“Charlie is not only a great person, he is also an amazing House Cleaner! We miss him here in Seattle, but I know he’ll do a great job for you.”
— Steve S. & Carla V.
Charlie cleaned my house in Seattle on a regular twice a month basis. Charlie does a super job, is very thorough, conscientious, and efficient. He works quickly and gets a lot of deep cleaning done in a short time. Even with our erratic schedules, travel, and frequent need to reschedule, he kept our house sparkling! We were sad to have him move away and made an extensive search to find a replacement. Highly recommend!
— Sue A. & Richard C.
“My family employed Charles semi-regularly in Seattle for about a year as a house cleaner. Charles has a great attitude, and brings joy to his work. We particularly appreciated his flexibility, eye for detail and work ethic!”
— Gail G.
JUDGEMENT FREE HELP :)
I’ve always been a rigorously tidy person, one who truly thrives in a clean orderly environment. I began voluntarily cleaning up after my family at 6 years old. However my beloved partner of 16 years, Claire, is a brilliant but cluttered creative. As empirical truths hold, opposites attract. While we have had our share of frustrations with this juxtaposition, I’ve always approached Claire’s ADHD and handled her unintentional messiness with patience and compassion. People’s brains work differently, and that’s OK. Let me lean into my strengths, so as to allow you the freedom and time to lean into yours. Finding the right help can restore equilibrium and promote harmony in your home. I’m here to help.

Tired of endlessly searching for something you saw but a moment ago? Sick of making piles? Searching for a glimpse of counter space? I am a master of making zen out of chaos; bringing the art of order to your home. A messy, disorganized realm can be hugely distracting and inhibit your functionality; it can even affect your health and wellness, not to mention your stress level! I organize through channeling the power of my OCD. I’m a master at creating simple systems suited to each individuals need.
I have extensive experience working with clients, who have ADHD, OCD, germophobioa, and agoraphobia, as well as other natural sensitivities and requirements. I’m an expert at categorizing and displaying items in a visually accessible format.

Moving, and any kind of relocation, can feel traumatizing. Being unprepared can significantly add to those heavy feelings.
If you are departing: As a former mover and relocation expert I can help you pack, deep clean your old home, navigate the nuances; and structure your move in a way that allows you to see the open road ahead.
If you are arriving: Deep cleaning your new home whilst unpacking in tandem. Moving and arranging large/heavy furniture. Laying and positioning area rugs. Breaking down and consolidating moving boxes/supplies.

PRE & POST RELOCATION SERVICES
In the early 2000’s I was a relocation specialist and independent mover in Brooklyn, NY for 11 years. I’ve seen everything that can go wrong with a moving job. And solved it all. While I no longer do active moves, I can help you prepare, and structure your relocation so that you are not grasping for the brandy on move day. That photo was taken on a 103°f afternoon: 58x 50-pound boxes (home library), 5 flight walk up; one man, one coffee; 3 hours.
About
Comprehensive, highly skilled house and business cleaning services
Local references available on request
I am highly experienced and skilled in the domestic arts, having close to two decades of home and business cleaning under my belt. It’s never a chore for me; and it’s much more than just a job. I enjoy what I do. I revel in it. When I am in flow state, it’s akin to Mr Clean meets Baryshnikov. In my free time I am a runner, cold swimmer, avid birder (corvids especially), and writer. In my work time, I am your right hand in cleaning, organization, streamlining, and more.
In my spectrum of work, I have serviced households large and small; bachelor clients to large families, 800sqft studios to 4000sqft homes. Also numerous businesses: television studios, retail, restaurants, Montessori schools and barbershops. I find no task or project daunting, and go about my craft with unrelenting zeal.
I've frequently worked with families with small children and numerous pets, and am happy to accommodate their company and resolve their mess during a cleaning project.
I’ve worked with multiple clients with ADHD and/or autism, and specialize in helping to bring order, structure, and a clean environment to people who may feel overwhelmed easily, or lack coherent cleaning and organizing methodology. I have family on the spectrum and am extremely sensitive to those with varying needs.
I will NEVER clean your home with harsh chemicals, for your well being and my own.
I bring the power of OCD; I will clean your home as I would my own.
I bring my own equipment, in full.
I am happy to preview in person a cleaning project prior to potential hire, if you live within a 5 mile radius, otherwise I am happy to discuss your needs in detail over the phone, or do a video call walk through.
Life happens. Should you need to cancel a day of booked service with me, simply notify me before 9am on the day of service. There will be no charge.
I have impeccable references and testimonials available.
