Springfield housing runs from early twentieth-century bungalows in Rountree and Phelps Grove to builder homes put up in the last decade, and our checklist works in both. The time we plan follows the size and condition of the house rather than a stopwatch.
Hard water is the biggest local headache. City Utilities' 2025 water quality report lists an average hardness of 8.1 grains per gallon, which counts as hard. It shows up as cloudy shower glass, crusty faucet bases, and spotty dishes. Our team is trained to remove hard water stains, and we give fixtures extra time when buildup appears.
Pets are the other big one. Hair collects along baseboards, under furniture edges, and on stair treads, and our crews are trained to get it up. Spring adds a yellow film of pollen on window sills and anything near an open door. Late spring brings a wave of lease endings around Missouri State, Drury, and Evangel, so if you rent near campus, book your move-out clean early.
