We had a great experience with them! They did an amazing job and really went above and beyond. They were also able to fit us into their schedule on short notice, which we really appreciated. Everything looked great when they were finished, and you can tell they take pride in their work. We’ll definitely be using them again and would highly recommend them!
They came and did a deep clean of our home. I am so so amazed and appreciative of the wonderful job they did. They were very friendly, and did things that I didn't even expect they would. Our home looks fantastic, and I'll definitely be using them again.
My cleaning was very thorough, especially the surface cleans in the bathroom and kitchen. They were very kind and I'd be happy to have them in my space again!

About Move-In Cleaning
Common questions and tips from our work with Springfield customers.
Should I clean a home again right after moving in?
No deep clean is needed if the move-in cleaning was done the week you arrived. For upkeep, wipe kitchen counters after cooking, run bathroom fans during showers to limit moisture, and spot-mop entry floors weekly. After about a month of settling in, most Springfield homeowners are ready to set a regular recurring schedule rather than another one-time deep clean.
How do I protect freshly cleaned grout and cabinet surfaces?
Freshly scrubbed grout stays clean longest if you dry shower walls after use and reseal porous grout lines once they are fully cured, which typically takes about 72 hours. Wipe cabinet fronts with a damp microfiber cloth rather than abrasive pads, and use pH-neutral cleaners on sealed stone and finished wood so the move-in result holds through your first months in the home.
What should I unpack first to keep the space clean?
Start with bedding, bathroom basics, and a small kitchen kit so you are not opening every box at once. Fewer open boxes mean less dust and cardboard debris settling on cleaned floors. Break down empty cartons the same day and take them outside, then run a vacuum over main walkways at the end of each unpacking day to protect the freshly mopped surfaces.
Let disinfectant dwell before you wipe
On touchpoints like door handles, light switches, and faucet handles, EPA-registered disinfectants need dwell time on the surface to work as labeled, often several minutes before wiping. That is why crews apply first and wipe later in the order of work. At home, spray, wait, then wipe instead of spraying and immediately drying the surface.
Color-coded cloths stop cross-contamination
Professional crews use a color-coded cloth system so cloths that touched toilets never touch kitchen counters. This cross-contamination prevention matters most during move-in cleans, when bathrooms and kitchens are both stripped down and accessible. You can copy the habit at home with separate microfiber cloths per room, laundered between uses.
Common Questions
How much does house cleaning cost in Springfield, IL?
Price depends on the size of the home, its condition at the start, and which rooms need the most work. A heavily used kitchen or several bathrooms adds time. Leskuin Cleaning LLC builds an estimate around those factors, so you get a figure that matches your home instead of a one-size-fits-all rate.
What areas around Springfield do you serve?
Leskuin Cleaning LLC covers Springfield plus Chatham, Rochester, Sherman, Auburn, Pleasant Plains, Riverton, Williamsville, Petersburg, Divernon, New Berlin, and Athens. Visits are arranged by phone at (217) 550-3066 or through the booking form, and a crew is assigned a time window that fits your day.
How soon can I book a cleaning?
Most Springfield, IL appointments can be scheduled within a few days, and same-day cleaning is often available when the schedule has an opening. Calling early in the day gives the best odds of a same-week slot, especially for recurring weekly or biweekly plans.
Do I need to be home during the cleaning?
No. Many clients leave a key or entry code with instructions and come back to a finished home. Others stay and work in another room. Either way the crew follows the same room-by-room checklist, and you get a walkthrough summary of what was cleaned.
How should I prepare before the crew arrives?
A quick pickup of clothes, toys, and dishes makes the visit faster, since the crew can go straight to surfaces instead of clearing clutter first. Secure pets, note anything fragile, and leave the rest. Supplies and equipment arrive with the team, so nothing needs to be set out.
What happens on cleaning day?
The team arrives in the agreed window, confirms the scope, and starts with high dusting before moving to counters, sinks, tubs, and floors. Kitchens get degreasing on stovetops and backsplashes; bathrooms get grout scrubbing and hard water stain removal. Floors are vacuumed and mopped last so nothing is walked back onto them.
What is the difference between standard and deep cleaning?
A standard visit keeps an already maintained home in shape with surface work, dusting, and floors. A deep clean targets buildup: baseboard detailing, grout scrubbing, hard water stains, and inside ranges or refrigerators on request. Springfield homes that have not had a professional clean in months usually start with the deep version.
What cleaning products do you use?
The crew carries pH-neutral cleaners for finished surfaces, EPA-registered disinfectants for kitchens and bathrooms, and a microfiber system with color-coded cloths so germs never travel from a toilet to a counter. Cross-contamination prevention is part of the standard routine, not an add-on.
Do you offer recurring cleaning plans?
Weekly and biweekly plans are the most common, and monthly visits work for smaller apartments. Each recurring appointment follows a checklist-based quality control list, so the same surfaces get attention every time. Plans can be paused or adjusted by phone at (217) 550-3066 whenever your schedule changes.
Can you clean a move-out so I get my deposit back?
Move-out cleaning covers a full top-to-bottom reset: appliances inside and out, cabinets emptied and wiped, baseboards, blinds, and all floors. Springfield landlords and property managers expect that level of detail at turnover, and the same scope works for move-in cleaning before your furniture arrives.
Do you handle same-day cleaning requests?
Same-day slots are held open where possible for Springfield-area clients who need a fast turnaround before guests or a showing. Call (217) 550-3066 in the morning with the rooms that matter most, and the crew will confirm what can be covered in the time available.
How long does a typical visit take?
A routine cleaning of an average Springfield home usually runs two to four hours depending on bedrooms, bathrooms, and condition. Deep cleans and move-outs take longer because of grout work, appliance interiors, and baseboard detailing. The estimate lists the expected time so there are no surprises on the day.
