The homes of Elizabeth
Nearly half of the 49,000 homes in Elizabeth sit in two and three family houses, the group Census figures list as buildings of 2 to 4 units. They turn up across the city, from Elmora on the west side to Elizabethport on the waterfront, and they come to 47 percent of the total. Single family houses account for 19 percent, and apartment buildings of 20 units or more hold a similar share. Elizabeth is the seat of Union County and faces Newark Bay and the Arthur Kill. Its housing is on the older side: the median home was built in 1957 and 27 percent of homes predate 1940, while 17 percent have been built since 2000. About three in four homes are rented, so a cleaning visit here often means one floor of a shared house.
How a visit works here
A two family house has its own logistics. Tell us if you live on the first floor or the second, if the stairs to your door are inside or outside, and if the driveway is yours to use, because the closer a work vehicle stands to the entrance, the shorter the hose run. Near Broad Street, the main street of midtown Elizabeth, curb space can be scarce in business hours, so point us to a lot or a loading area if there is one. Elevator buildings may ask for notice. Afterward, air the rooms. Drying takes a few hours as a rule, and a humid day adds to it.
What we clean in Elizabeth
Carpet cleaning in Elizabeth
Four in five homes in Elizabeth are in buildings that house two or more households, and in a two family house that can mean a stair and a landing used by both. Before you ask for a quote, find out if the stair carpet is yours, the owner's or shared, so we know which steps to count.

Once a sofa is upstairs in an Elizabeth two family house, it is not coming back down for a cleaning, and it does not have to. Three in five homes here are in buildings that hold between two and nineteen households, and in all of them we clean sofas and sectionals in place, one section at a time.

Mattress cleaning in Elizabeth
Two and three family houses hold 47 percent of Elizabeth homes and large apartment buildings another 19 percent, and in all of them a mattress is cleaned in the bedroom, on the bed it belongs to. Clear the floor on both sides of the bed so we can work all the way around it, and open the bedroom window before we arrive if the weather allows.

Elizabeth: questions, answered
Do you clean stair carpet in two family houses in Elizabeth?
Yes. Carpet on stairs, landings and halls is part of what we clean. Elizabeth has many such stairs, since 47 percent of its homes are in two to four unit houses. Count the steps and tell us if the stair is yours alone or shared with the other household.
Can old pet urine be cleaned out of a carpet in Elizabeth?
Not always. A recent accident usually cleans up well. Urine that went through to the pad long ago is another matter: the mark or the smell can outlast a cleaning done from the top of the carpet, and we say which case we think it is before we start. Show us every spot you know of, dry ones included.
Do you take rugs away from Elizabeth homes to clean them?
No. Area rugs are cleaned where they lie, in your Elizabeth home, after we check the fiber and test the dyes. Some rugs need more than that. When one calls for a full immersion wash, we say so, describe what we found, and leave the next step to you.
