Dense buildings, shared stairs and city grime

Most Chelsea homes are units in triple-deckers, two-families and brick apartment buildings. The rooms are often small and the kitchens and bathrooms are used hard by full households, so grease on the stove and cabinets, soap scum and mildew in bathrooms without good ventilation, and dust on radiators and window sills build up quickly. The front stairs and hallways are shared by every unit, they are the first thing a tenant or a visitor sees, and they get dirty fast. We clean individual apartments, the common areas on a regular schedule, and whole units between tenants for landlords who need them ready for the next lease.

On Admiral's Hill, the condos and townhouses built on the grounds of the former Naval Hospital have more space, more windows and views toward the water, and owners there usually want a regular cleaning plus help with glass and floors. The newer apartment buildings near the Silver Line and the Box District include furnished and short-term rentals where a reliable turnover between guests matters. Outside, Chelsea lives with traffic and industry: Route 1 and the Tobin Bridge overhead, trucks on Broadway and Everett Avenue, and the salt and fuel terminals along Chelsea Creek. That leaves a dark film on siding and windows facing the busy streets and a gray crust on concrete steps and sidewalks in front of the house, which a pressure wash lifts.
