House cleaning in Kouts
Kouts is a short drive south of Valparaiso on State Road 49, and I am happy to make it.
What is different about Kouts homes
Kouts is a farm town and its homes show it: a small center, then houses on big lots and working acreage on every side. Field dust settles on ceiling fans, blinds and window ledges faster than people expect, and boots bring the rest in through the back door. I clean those entries, ledges and fan blades on purpose, every visit, rather than when they finally get noticed.

What I do in Kouts
Regular cleaning
Most of what I do. The same rooms, the same order, the same person, on a rhythm you stop having to think about.
The first deep clean
The long visit. Everything that has quietly got away from you over a year, sorted properly, one time. I call it the Reset.
Moving in or out
Empty house, inside of everything. The clean that has to pass somebody else's walkthrough.
After a build
New build or a finished remodel. Drywall dust settles three times, so this is not one pass.
Questions people ask
How much does house cleaning cost in Valparaiso, Indiana?
A 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home of about 1,800 square feet is roughly $285 every two weeks, $240 weekly, or $330 monthly. The first deep clean of the same home, the Reset, is about $565, inside the fridge and the oven included. Indiana does not charge sales tax on cleaning services, so the quoted figure is the figure.
Why does the first clean take so much longer?
Because it is undoing however long it has been since the home was properly done. On a typical 1,800 square foot home it is well over half again the work of a regular visit: inside the fridge and the oven, baseboards by hand, door frames, window tracks, blinds, vents, grout, shower runners, and behind whatever moves. It happens once, at the start. After that the regular visits keep the home there, so you never pay for it again unless you ask for it. If you want another one later, before the holidays or in spring, I quote it as a one-off from how the home looks then.
Do you send the same cleaner every time?
Yes. Maria cleans your home herself. If she ever hires, cleaners are assigned to homes and never rotated, so you will always know who is coming and you will never explain your home twice.
What areas do you serve in Northwest Indiana?
Valparaiso, Chesterton, Crown Point, Winfield, St. John, Munster, Dyer, Schererville, Portage, Ogden Dunes, Michigan City, Long Beach, Beverly Shores, Wanatah, Westville, Kouts, Hebron, Hobart, Merrillville and La Porte, across Porter, Lake and LaPorte counties, plus the smaller towns between them.

Do I have to sign a contract?
No, and there is nothing to cancel. You can stop whenever you like. One exception, stated plainly before you book: book a regular schedule and your first deep clean comes with an ongoing cleaning credit, shown on your quote. Stop before your third visit and that credit goes on your final bill.
Do I need to pay a deposit?
No. Nothing is charged when you book, and there is no card on file at booking, no deposit and no retainer. You pay after your home has been cleaned.
