"They were on time, professional, and very detail-oriented throughout the entire process."
I don’t usually leave reviews, but DM House Cleaning did a really solid job. They were on time, professional, and very detail-oriented throughout the entire process.
What stood out the most was the attention to detail — they didn’t just clean the obvious areas, they went deeper and made sure everything was properly taken care of. The place felt genuinely clean and well-maintained after they finished.
If you’re looking for a dependable and professional cleaning service in the area, they’re definitely worth considering.

Before we confirm your appointment
Cleaning products and vacuum
On the first visit we bring all the cleaning products and our own vacuum. On later visits we still bring our vacuum, and we use your products: you can buy the ones you like, or we can buy them for you and give you the receipt.
Payment
We accept Zelle, Venmo and checks.
Weekday appointments
Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Time for the visit
It depends on the size and condition of the home. We don’t rush: Daniela checks every room before the crew moves on to the next, so larger homes and first visits take longer.
Tipping
Tips are never expected, but always appreciated.
Changing an appointment
Please give us 48 hours’ notice so we can offer the time to another family.
Optional keys and access
You do not need to be home if authorized entry is arranged. Providing a key or access code is optional and your choice. If you give us a key for recurring visits, we keep it on file, labeled, for your scheduled visits and return it whenever you ask or when service ends. We only accept one if you choose to give it to us. Share door, lockbox or alarm codes privately when arranging access, not in the quote form.
Missed agreed tasks
Report a missed agreed task within 24 hours of the visit; we will re-clean that task at no charge.
A return visit requires authorized access. The guarantee provides a re-clean, not a refund.

Questions about Apartment Cleaning in Berkeley Heights
What does cleaning a Berkeley Heights apartment cost?
An apartment visit starts at $140. Unit size, bathrooms, condition and whether you want a first deep clean or regular visits shape the apartment quote. The task list and price are fixed before your unit is booked; appliance, cabinet and storage interiors are an added charge.
What is included in apartment cleaning?
Inside the unit: kitchen counters and appliance fronts, bathrooms, dusting within reach, floors, high-touch spots and emptying the trash, all from the checklist on this page. A laundry closet gets a quick wipe only; dishes and clothes washing are not included. We photograph the unit only if you ask beforehand.
Who cleans my Berkeley Heights apartment?
Daniela Marque, the owner, and the same small crew; no subcontractors, no call center. NJ MBE certified. Report a missed checklist item within 24 hours and it is cleaned again at no charge while access can be arranged.
How do I book a visit for my Berkeley Heights unit?
Appointments depend on confirmed availability. Give us the address with unit number and floor, the bathroom count, your preferred day, and how parking and building entry work, and we will confirm the visit.
What should I include for a Berkeley Heights apartment quote?
Unit number, floor, bathroom count, stairs or elevator, parking and any building rule about outside workers. Studios are fine. If your lease requires landlord approval for cleaners, arrange it before we book.
Will you clean the building's halls or condo common spaces?
No. We work only within the walls of your apartment or condo. Building halls, lobbies and other common spaces sit outside this service.
Do bed linens or appliance interiors come with an apartment visit?
Changing the bed linen is a $20 per bedroom add-on, done only when you ask. Inside appliances, cabinets or storage is billed on top; settle the date, the tasks and the price before you book. Laundry, whether washing, drying or folding, is not included.
Can I book if I rent my Berkeley Heights apartment?
Yes. If your lease needs the landlord's approval for outside workers, get it first; the crew cleans only inside your unit.
Is a studio too small to book?
No. A studio gets the same room-by-room list, priced for its size.
Can I move my apartment visit to another day?
Yes, with 48 hours' notice before the scheduled visit.
Where does the crew leave its car at my complex?
Tell us the building's parking and entry rules when you book, and the visit is planned around them.
