House Cleaning — Caldwell, Essex County
Caldwell is a borough of 1.18 square miles in northwestern Essex County, New Jersey; DM House Cleaning drives in from our Kenilworth, NJ business base.
Caldwell’s Bloomfield Avenue passes the Grover Cleveland Birthplace, but a landmark will not find your door.

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.

We also work in West Caldwell, North Caldwell, Roseland, Fairfield, Verona and Cedar Grove. Share the street address and we confirm the visit on an open weekday.
Who actually comes to clean my Caldwell house?
Daniela Marque, who owns DM House Cleaning, and the same small crew she works with, never subcontractors. DM House Cleaning holds NJ MBE certification #A0654-63 and $1,000,000 in general liability coverage. A task on your list that we miss is re-cleaned free when you tell us within 24 hours; the linked terms explain how.
What's included in a standard cleaning?
The 54-point room-by-room checklist on this page: kitchens, bathrooms, floors, dusting and high-touch surfaces, with the laundry room and mudroom given only a quick tidy. We leave dishes and clothes washing to you, change bed linens for $20 per bedroom when asked, and price appliance, cabinet and storage interiors as extras, deep clean or not.
Can a Caldwell visit cover more than one floor and a finished basement?
Yes; list the rooms on each floor, the stairs and the condition of the surfaces so all of it is in the quote. A finished lower level is cleaned, but moisture treatment, repairs and moving stored belongings are not part of it. Interiors and other extras are priced separately.
How will your crew enter my Caldwell house?
Tell us who will let the crew in and where we can park. You may be out during the visit if authorized entry is arranged, and handing over a key or code is entirely up to you. Pass door, lockbox or alarm codes to us privately when we set up the visit, never in the quote form.
Why is the borough called Caldwell?
Wikipedia says the town congregation voted on February 17, 1787, to rename the Horse Neck Tract in honor of the Reverend James Caldwell. North Caldwell and West Caldwell carry the same name, and we clean in all three.
Which towns border Caldwell?
Essex Fells, North Caldwell and West Caldwell, all in Essex County, according to Wikipedia. Send your full street address so we can confirm which town the house is in and book the visit.
