Housekeeping

ByLight provides reliable, professional, and discreet cleaning and laundry services designed for busy households and professionals who value their time. Our service is built on trust, consistency, and clear communication — so you can enjoy a clean space without the stress of managing it.

How Our Service Works

To ensure a high and consistent standard, every new home starts with an initial deep clean. This allows us to reset the space properly so that all following visits focus on easy, effective maintenance.

Initial Deep Clean (One‑Time)

The deep clean includes areas that are not part of regular maintenance cleaning, such as:

  • Walls and high‑touch surfaces

  • Interior and exterior windows

  • Detailed kitchen and bathroom cleaning

  • Skirting boards, corners, and hard‑to‑reach areas

Important: The initial deep clean is a once‑off service and is charged separately. It is required before any ongoing weekly or twice‑weekly maintenance services can begin.

Once the deep clean is completed, your home is set up for ongoing weekly or twice‑weekly maintenance cleaning.

  • Each lockbox is assigned a unique code and unit number

This system allows us to clean efficiently while keeping your access details protected.
