Services
Three services, each described clearly before you decide
Seasonal deep cleaning, regular corridor care, and pre-handover property cleans — each with a fixed price and a defined scope.
Back to homeWhat we offer
Three distinct services, built around what households in Kobe actually need
Each service addresses a different need. The seasonal deep session is suited to households that maintain their own day-to-day tidiness and need support with the things that routine upkeep cannot reach. The entrance and corridor service is for the parts of a home that receive constant traffic. The pre-handover clean is for properties being returned at the end of a tenancy.
Some clients use one service. Others combine two. The scope of each is fixed, the pricing is stated, and what is included is described before any visit takes place.

Who each service suits
Finding what fits your household
Seasonal Deep Session
Households that maintain their own regular tidiness and want four visits a year to cover the areas that daily cleaning cannot reach. Suited to families and single-person homes alike, particularly those with older appliances or heavily used ventilation.
Entrance & Corridor Care
Families with children, homes shared between several occupants, or any household where the entrance and corridor receive daily heavy use. The frequency — weekly or fortnightly — can be adjusted as the household's schedule changes.
Pre-Handover Clean
Anyone leaving a rental property in the Kobe area and wanting a clean prepared specifically to tenancy inspection standard. The photographic record and return visit are there precisely for situations where inspection outcomes depend on documented evidence.

Questions
Things worth knowing before getting in touch
How far in advance do I need to book?
For pre-handover cleans, earlier is better — two weeks or more allows us to schedule the right team size and confirm scope in advance. For seasonal and corridor sessions, we work around your schedule; contact us and we will agree a date that suits both sides.
Do I need to be present during the visit?
For the first visit, it is helpful if you are present for the initial walk-through and task confirmation. After that, many clients prefer not to be home, and we work with whatever arrangement suits you.
What if my apartment is larger than two rooms?
The stated price for the pre-handover clean is based on a two-room apartment. Larger properties are quoted separately after a description of the scope. Contact us with your property details and we will provide a clear figure before any commitment.
Can I combine services?
Many clients use the seasonal deep session and the corridor care service together. The two work well alongside each other: the seasonal visit covers the areas the corridor service does not reach, and the corridor service maintains the entrance between deep sessions.
Are there any products or methods I should know about?
We use standard professional cleaning products appropriate to each surface type. If you have allergies, sensitivities, or preferences about particular products, note these when you get in touch and we will accommodate them before the first visit.
Not sure which service fits?
Write to us with a brief description of your home and what you are trying to address. We will suggest what would be most appropriate, clearly and without pressure.
