Home cleaning and garden care in Howick

Family homes with room around them

Most of the housing in Howick is brick and tile or weatherboard from the sixties through the eighties, with newer builds as you move towards Botany and Flat Bush. Three or four bedrooms, a separate laundry, a garage that has become storage, and a deck off the living room that gets used most of the year.

Households are busy and often have kids and pets in them, which decides where the time goes: carpet, upholstery, the floor around the back door, and the sliding doors that get pushed open with whatever hand is free.

Closer to the water, salt film on glass is the standing complaint. Interior glass and joinery need doing more often than they would inland, and it is worth putting exterior windows on a schedule rather than waiting until you can’t see through them.

Inside the house and out the back

Fortnightly home cleaning is the core of what we do here — kitchen, bathrooms, floors, dusting, and the bedrooms turned over properly rather than tidied. Plenty of households add a deeper reset before Christmas, when the whole extended family is coming.

Lawn and garden care is booked alongside it more often here than anywhere else we work, simply because the sections are big enough to get away on you. Mowing, edging, hedges trimmed back off the paths and green waste taken away.

Carpet and upholstery is the third regular, and a car groom done in the driveway rounds out a Saturday for households running two vehicles.

Around the bays

From Howick our east Auckland route takes in Pakuranga, Bucklands Beach, Half Moon Bay, Cockle Bay, Highland Park and Botany, so we can usually fit a neighbour or a family member into the same visit.

Putting the house and the garden into one visit is the practical move here, because the sections are big enough that two separate trips waste half the value of either. Tell us what the garden needs at the same time as you book the inside.

We are locally owned and operated, the team is police vetted and fully insured, and bookings run Monday to Saturday from 7am to 6pm. If any part of the job isn’t right, the 100% satisfaction guarantee means we come back.
