Brooklyn isn't one neighborhood — it's dozens of them, each with its own character and its own cleaning needs. First Up Cleaning Services covers all of them: the brownstone corridors of Park Slope and Boerum Hill, the apartments of Flatbush and Crown Heights, the converted lofts of DUMBO, the storefronts of Sunset Park, and everywhere in between. From Coney Island and Sea Gate at the southern tip to Greenpoint and Williamsburg in the north, our local Brooklyn cleaners work the whole borough.
We handle both sides of Brooklyn life. Homeowners, renters, and building managers turn to our house cleaning and maid service for everything from routine weekly maintenance to move-in and move-out turnovers. Offices, retail businesses, restaurants, and medical practices rely on our commercial and office cleaning — scheduled around their hours, not ours.
Looking for a Brooklyn cleaning company? BBB Accredited since 2021, First Up Cleaning Services brings professional cleaning to every corner of Brooklyn — with the same checklist, the same vetting, and the same supervisor sign-off on every visit.

Here's something most cleaning companies won't say upfront: Brooklyn isn't a city of houses. It's a city of apartments — small ones, tall ones, pre-war ones with quirky layouts and radiators that take up half the wall. First Up Cleaning Services was built for exactly that. We provide house cleaning services, apartment cleaning services, home cleaning, and maid service across Brooklyn — studios, walk-ups, condos, co-ops, brownstones, and everything in between — and our Brooklyn house cleaners bring every supply the job needs. You don't have to buy a single thing. When you need a home cleaning service near you in Brooklyn, our technicians already work the borough regularly.
Buildings come with rules, and Brooklyn's come with plenty of them. If your co-op or condo board needs a Certificate of Insurance before we arrive, we'll request one from our insurance carrier — just ask when you book. Doorman, super, lockbox, or smart lock: we'll sort out access ahead of time, and walk-up stairs and stoop-to-parlor brownstone entries are simply part of the job. In our experience, the best cleaning service for a Brooklyn building is the one that has the paperwork settled before anyone rings the bell. Our cleaning prep guide covers everything else worth knowing before the first visit.
Whether you need a one-time deep clean before a landlord inspection or a recurring home cleaning service that runs like clockwork, we have a schedule that fits. Recurring visits keep home cleaning affordable with a standing discount: 20% off weekly, 15% off bi-weekly, and 10% off monthly cleanings. New clients get 15% off their first residential booking, and seniors save 20% on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday cleanings (holidays excluded). Discounts can't be combined. Move-in and move-out cleaning is available too, for the Brooklyn reality of always being one lease away from somewhere new. See everything we offer at home on our residential house cleaning page.

When a Brooklyn business needs a commercial cleaning service, the search usually starts with "near me" — and for good reason. You want local Brooklyn cleaners who show up on your schedule and already know the borough. First Up Cleaning Services provides commercial cleaning, office cleaning services, and janitorial services across Brooklyn: Downtown Brooklyn offices, retail corridors and showrooms, restaurants, medical suites, schools, daycares, churches, and the lobbies and hallways of condo and apartment buildings. Dusting, mopping, disinfecting surfaces, polishing fixtures and appliances, and commercial floor care — the standard your operation depends on, kept on schedule.
Every commercial account starts with a walkthrough — in our experience, the best commercial cleaning begins with seeing the space, which is why it's a planning step, not a sales visit. We map the space, establish a cleaning sequence that works around your operation, and build a schedule around your business hours. If your landlord or building management needs a Certificate of Insurance on file, we'll request one from our carrier before the first visit. Day, evening, or weekend; one-time, bi-weekly, or recurring — your business runs when it needs to, and so do we.
Not ready to commit to an annual contract? You shouldn't have to. First Up Cleaning Services offers a 30-day trial period for every new commercial client — enough time to see the work, evaluate the team, and decide with confidence. Every estimate is free, so you can see what affordable janitorial service looks like for your space before deciding on anything. For the full picture, visit our office and commercial cleaning page.

🛡️
Federal safety training applied to every home and business we clean in Brooklyn — not a one-time course, a standard we maintain on every job.
🎖️
Four professional credentials — certifications, affiliations, and memberships — that most Brooklyn cleaning companies never pursue. We carry all of them.
🔐
Every member of our Brooklyn team is screened, vetted, bonded, and fully covered before they step inside your space. No exceptions.
📋
A documented room-by-room checklist submitted after every job — reviewed and approved by a supervisor, not just self-reported by the cleaner in the field.

No two Brooklyn blocks look the same — and no two Brooklyn apartments are cleaned the same way either. A Ditmas Park Victorian needs different attention than a Williamsburg loft. A Sheepshead Bay house that's been in the family for decades isn't the same job as a Crown Heights walkup that just turned over. First Up Cleaning Services plans for every one of them differently — find your neighborhood in the five zones below.

"I hired these guys to clean my entire house to get ready for a landlord home inspection. They made my house look really good. The landlord was impressed and returned my full deposit. Way to go!"

Standard cleaning covers regular maintenance on every visit — surfaces, floors, bathrooms, kitchen, and common areas. Deep cleaning goes further: baseboards wiped down, under beds, bathroom grout and tile detail scrubbing, and the spots a standard visit doesn't reach. Interior appliance cleaning — oven, refrigerator, microwave — is available as an add-on service. We recommend a deep clean for first-time clients or after an extended gap between cleanings. See full descriptions of each cleaning service for a complete breakdown of what's included.
