House Cleaning & Vacation Rental Cleaning FAQs
Serving Marathon, Key Colony Beach, Duck Key, and Grassy Key
Have questions about cleaning your home or vacation rental? Here’s what to know about working with Lee Lapid Housekeeping.
Where do you provide cleaning services?
We clean homes and vacation rentals in Marathon, Key Colony Beach, Duck Key, and Grassy Key, Florida. Send us your property’s location when requesting a quote so we can confirm service availability.
What’s included in a standard house cleaning?
A standard cleaning covers kitchen counters, sinks, appliance exteriors, bathroom fixtures, dusting, vacuuming, and mopping. We agree on the cleaning scope before your appointment so you know what to expect.
Tasks such as cleaning inside ovens, detailed buildup removal, or other extra work should be discussed when requesting your quote.
Do you offer recurring and one-time cleaning?
Yes. We offer weekly, biweekly, monthly, and one-time cleaning, subject to availability. We’ll help you choose a schedule based on how you use your home and what you need cleaned.
Can you clean my second home before I arrive?
Yes. We can arrange cleaning before your arrival so your home is ready for you to enjoy. Contact us with your arrival date, property details, and cleaning priorities so we can confirm the scope and available appointment.
Do you clean vacation rentals between guests?
Yes. We provide turnover cleaning for Airbnb, VRBO, and other vacation rentals throughout our service area. We agree on the cleaning checklist, checkout and check-in times, linen arrangements, and any restocking needs before service begins.
How much does cleaning cost?
Pricing depends on the property’s size, number of bathrooms, condition, and requested work. Laundry, bed changes, and additional cleaning tasks may affect the quote.
Send us your location, bedroom and bathroom count, service type, and preferred date. Photos can help us provide a more accurate estimate.
Who provides the cleaning supplies?
Our cleaners bring their own cleaning supplies and equipment. If your home has surfaces requiring particular products or care, tell us before the appointment so we can agree on suitable arrangements.
Do I need to be home during the cleaning?
No. You can be home or arrange access before your appointment. We’ll discuss how the cleaner will enter and secure the property when finished. Please share access instructions directly with us rather than in public comments.
Do you clean homes with pets?
We welcome homes with dogs. Please let us know about your dog before the appointment so we can arrange safe access and cleaning. We do not service homes with cats or properties with pest infestations.
For pet-friendly vacation-rental turnovers, a minimum $100 pet surcharge applies. We’ll confirm the applicable charge when quoting your property.
Will you contact me if you find a problem?
We will contact owners when something requires attention. If we notice damage, a maintenance concern, or something that affects the cleaning, we’ll let you know.
How far ahead should I schedule?
Contact us as soon as you know your preferred date, especially for arrival cleaning and rental turnovers. Availability depends on existing appointments. Recurring customers can arrange future dates with us in advance.
How do I request a cleaning quote?
Call or text 305-395-0588, or use our website’s quote form. Please include your property’s location, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, service type, one-time or recurring schedule, preferred date, pets, and any special cleaning requests.
More About Scheduling and Vacation Rental Cleaning
Are your cleaners licensed and insured?
Yes. Lee Lapid Housekeeping is licensed and insured, so you have peace of mind and protection every time we’re in your home or rental.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule?
Life happens — just let us know as soon as you can and we’ll work with you to find a new time.
What’s included in a vacation rental turnover?
Fresh linens and made beds, fully sanitized bathrooms and kitchens, vacuuming and mopping, wiping down all surfaces and appliances, setting out guest amenities, and a check for damage or items left behind — so your short-term rental is spotless and guest-ready every time.
What time do you need guests to check out for a turnover?
We prefer a 9 AM departure. An earlier checkout gives us the full window to turn the property over thoroughly before your next guest arrives — which matters most during back-to-back Airbnb and VRBO bookings.
Can you do same-day Saturday turnovers?
We do not offer same-day Saturday turnovers. If one guest checks out on Saturday and the next guest arrives later that day, we cannot schedule that turnover. For other dates, send us your checkout and check-in times so we can confirm availability.
Can you handle back-to-back bookings during high season?
Yes. High season is exactly when reliable turnovers matter most, and it’s when short-term rental owners count on us. We hold your dates and show up on schedule, so a full booking calendar never becomes a last-minute scramble.
Do you offer mid-stay cleanings during a guest’s booking?
No. We focus on turnovers between guests and don’t offer mid-stay cleanings.
Who pays for guest amenities like toilet paper, soap, and coffee?
The cost of guest amenities is the owner’s responsibility unless we arrange something different in advance. We’re happy to set them out as part of the turnover, and we’ll give you a heads-up when supplies are running low.
I live out of state — can you manage my Airbnb turnovers without me there?
Absolutely. Many of our short-term rental owners live elsewhere. You don’t need to be present — we communicate directly with you and flag any issues we notice, so you stay informed from anywhere.
