Kitchen Cleaning
For apartments, independent houses, restaurants and schools in Bashundhara: trained cleaners, professional equipment and a clear price agreed before work starts.
There are plenty of reasons to book kitchen cleaning in Bashundhara: guests arriving for Eid, a new baby, the end of the monsoon, a tenancy changing hands, or simply a home that has slipped behind. Whatever the trigger, Dhaka Cleaners starts with a quick conversation about your flat or house, agrees the priorities and sends a supervised team that works to that plan, with the aim of leaving the space fresher and easier to keep clean.
Bashundhara is a large private residential development in north-east Dhaka, sitting beside Progoti Sarani and Kuril. Most of it is the Bashundhara Residential Area, laid out in lettered blocks, where modern apartment buildings stand alongside independent houses, private universities and Evercare Hospital Dhaka. Dhaka Cleaners cleans flats, family houses and newly handed-over units here, as well as the offices, cafés and schools that serve the neighbourhood, with the price agreed before any work starts.
Residential areas such as Bashundhara have their own rhythm: mornings that tend to quieten once school and office runs are over, busier evenings and weekends, and building rules that protect residents' peace. Dhaka Cleaners fits kitchen cleaning into that rhythm, choosing times when access is easiest and disturbance to neighbours is lowest. Rooftop tanks, shared drains and car parks are common features here too, and we plan around them wherever they affect the job.
Mostly multi-storey apartment buildings with independent houses and duplexes mixed in. Universities, schools, a large private hospital, cafés and small offices serve the residential blocks.
Construction dust on windows, grilles and balconies is a constant issue while nearby plots are being built. Newly handed-over flats typically need paint, cement and sticker residue removed before move-in. Larger homes with several bathrooms benefit from periodic limescale and mould treatment, especially after the monsoon.
Here is how kitchen cleaning in Bashundhara usually runs, from your first message to the final check.
We check the condition, surfaces and appliances, and agree what should be cleaned inside.
The gas is closed, the stove is cooled, and electrical points and food items are protected.
The ceiling, lights, upper cabinets and wall tiles are degreased first, working down to the worktops.
Burners, the sink, taps and appliance exteriors are scrubbed, descaled and rinsed.
Emptied cabinets are cleaned inside, then the floor and grout are scrubbed and dried.
You check the kitchen with the team leader, and anything missed is cleaned again.
The team works with the stove off and the gas closed, and keeps liquids away from sockets.
Spice stains, hard-water deposits and dull steel are treated to restore the finish where possible.
A dedicated kitchen clean is finished in a few hours, without the disruption of a whole-home deep clean.
Degreasers are given time to work and are rinsed off, so tiles and cabinets are left clean rather than streaky.
Equipment: We use professional degreasers and descalers, scrub pads that are safe for tiles and stainless steel, grout brushes, microfibre cloths, a steam cleaner for stubborn grease where surfaces tolerate heat, and a wet-and-dry vacuum for the…

Morning and weekend visits tend to be popular in Bashundhara, so they are usually the first slots to go. Dhaka Cleaners also serves nearby areas such as Badda, Baridhara, Nikunja and Khilkhet, and booking a few days ahead is the surest way to get the time you want. If something urgent comes up, ask about same-day availability and we will tell you honestly whether a team is free.
Bashundhara jobs are normally booked a few days ahead. Same-day visits may be possible if you contact us early, subject to team availability.
Most buildings have a guard desk and building management, so we share the team's details in advance and confirm lift or service-lift use. Traffic on Progoti Sarani and around Kuril can slow arrival at peak hours, so we build travel time into the schedule.
Common questions about kitchen cleaning in Bashundhara.
Many apartment buildings in Bashundhara ask for visitors and service teams to be registered at the guard desk, and some need the management office to approve lift use for equipment. When you book, we ask for the flat number and a contact person, and we can share the team leader's name and phone number beforehand so the guards are expecting us.
Yes. Because so many buildings in Bashundhara are new, move-in and post-construction cleans are frequent requests. We remove cement and paint marks, clean inside cabinets, wash bathroom and kitchen fittings, and clean windows and grilles. The time needed depends on the size of the flat and how much building residue is left, so we confirm scope and price before starting.
For a home kitchen used every day, a professional clean every two to three months keeps grease from building up heavily. Many families also book one before Eid or a large family gathering.
In most kitchens, yes: thick grease responds well to degreaser given enough time and careful scrubbing. On older painted or laminated cabinets the finish underneath may already be damaged, and some turmeric-stained grout may stay slightly discoloured. We point these out during the assessment.
Yes. Kitchens are often the hardest part of a handover, with grease on tiles, cabinets and the stove area. We can clean the kitchen on its own or as part of move-in or move-out cleaning, timed around your handover date and subject to team availability.
Book the kitchen clean first. Removing grease and food residue takes away what cockroaches feed on, and a treatment applied to a clean kitchen tends to work better. We can schedule both close together so the kitchen is out of use only briefly.
