Add-ons
Optional details can be scoped before the clean
Some jobs need more than a standard reset. LumiMaid can review photos or complete a walkthrough for heavy buildup, interior appliance detail, post-construction dust, recurring turns, or multi-unit plans.
- Interior fridge, oven, and cabinet detail when requested
- Heavy buildup, post-construction dust, or excessive debris reviewed before scheduling
- Photo reports for managers, landlords, and STR hosts
