House Cleaning in Columbus, Ohio

Transit & Flow Group provides recurring house cleaning across Columbus and Central Ohio on weekly, biweekly, or monthly schedules, with published checklists so you know exactly what each visit covers. Price your home in the online Estimate Builder using bedrooms, bathrooms, and square footage, then book your first clean in the same session.

Is this what you’re seeing?

People rarely book a cleaning service on a whim. It is usually one of these:

• The weekend disappeared again. You spent Saturday cleaning instead of doing anything you actually wanted, and it happened three weekends in a row.
• Two working adults, zero spare hours. The math of your own hourly value versus a cleaning visit finally clicked.
• A new baby, a new puppy, or a new diagnosis. Life changed and the house cannot keep up on the old system.
• Dust and pet hair are winning. Hardwood floors in older Clintonville and German Village homes show every particle, and forced-air heat redistributes it weekly all winter.
• You had a service before and quit. Different people every visit, vague checklists, no way to flag a missed item. You want the reliability problem solved, not just the dirt problem.
• A one-time reset. Moving in, moving out, or hosting the holidays, and you need a deep clean before a recurring schedule even makes sense.

How pricing works

Cleaning is priced from three inputs: your home’s size (bedrooms, bathrooms, and approximate square footage), the visit type, and the frequency.

• First visit or deep clean costs more than a maintenance visit because it does more: baseboards, vents, door frames, and the built-up areas a regular visit only maintains.
• Recurring maintenance visits are priced lower, and frequency sets the discount: weekly visits get the largest discount, biweekly a middle discount, and every-four-weeks a smaller one. The logic is simple and we are upfront about it: a home cleaned weekly takes less time per visit, so we charge less per visit.
• Add-ons are priced individually: inside the oven, inside the fridge, interior windows, laundry folding, and basement or finished-attic areas.

What changes the price: pets and shedding level, clutter level, and how long since the last professional clean. The Estimate Builder produces a preliminary online estimate from your inputs. Final scope and price subject to verification at the first visit, and if we adjust anything we do it before cleaning starts, not on the invoice afterward.

What’s included

Every recurring visit follows a written checklist. Standard scope:

• Kitchen: counters, sink, exterior of appliances, cabinet fronts spot-cleaned, floors
• Bathrooms: toilets, tubs, showers, mirrors, counters, floors
• All rooms: dusting of reachable surfaces, floors vacuumed and mopped, trash emptied, beds made on request
• Entry areas and stairs
• The same checklist visible to you and the cleaner, with a way to flag anything missed within 24 hours
• If you’re not satisfied, we return within 24 hours and re-clean the missed area at no charge.

What’s not included

• Exterior windows, gutters, and outdoor areas
• Biohazard cleanup, animal waste beyond litter-area surface cleaning, and pest-related cleanup
• Moving heavy furniture or appliances
• Dishes beyond loading the dishwasher, unless added as a recurring add-on
• Wet-wiping of electronics and inside display cabinets

If a home needs remediation-level work, that is a different industry with different rules, and we will say so rather than dabble.

Why Central Ohio homes get dirty the way they do

Cleaning in Columbus has a seasonal rhythm. From November through March, forced-air furnaces run almost constantly, circulating dust and pet dander through every room; homes with original ductwork in 1950s-to-1970s neighborhoods like Whitehall and the Hilltop move more dust than newer sealed systems in Dublin or New Albany. Spring brings a wave of pollen that films every horizontal surface, and anyone near the mature tree canopy in Clintonville or Upper Arlington knows the yellow week when it arrives.

Clay soil plays its part too. Central Ohio mud clings, and from March through May it walks into the house on every shoe and paw. Entry floors and mudrooms in this region genuinely need more frequent attention than the same rooms would in a sandier part of the country. Our checklists weight entries, floors, and vents accordingly, because that is where Columbus homes actually accumulate their dirt.

Our process

1. Price your home online. Bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, pets, and preferred frequency go into the Estimate Builder for a preliminary online estimate.
2. Book the first clean. Choose a date online. The first visit is a deep clean that resets the house to a maintainable baseline.
3. Walkthrough at the first visit. The cleaner confirms scope, notes your priorities, and records specifics like the room we should always skip or the counter that needs a particular product.
4. Recurring visits begin. Same checklist every time, and we aim for cleaner consistency so the person who knows your home keeps cleaning it. When a substitute is needed, they work from your home’s notes.
5. Rate and adjust. After each visit you can flag items, adjust frequency, or add extras for the next visit online.

Our cleaners are background-checked, and our teams are Bonded & Insured Professionals.
