Move-In Cleaning
For apartments, independent houses, restaurants and shops in Mohammadpur: trained cleaners, professional equipment and a clear price agreed before work starts.
Homes in Mohammadpur face the same everyday pressures as much of Dhaka: dust through open windows, bathrooms that stay damp and kitchens that work hard every day. Dhaka Cleaners provides move-in cleaning for flats and houses here with a trained team that brings its own equipment, follows your household's rules on shoes and off-limits rooms, and walks through the finished work with you. Morning and weekend slots are offered where available.
Mohammadpur is a large, lived-in residential area on the western side of central Dhaka, with planned housing blocks, apartment buildings and older family homes. Busy local markets such as Mohammadpur Town Hall market and Krishi Market sit alongside schools, clinics and small businesses. Dhaka Cleaners provides home, office and shop cleaning throughout Mohammadpur, with teams that know how to work around the area's crowded roads and walk-up buildings.
Residential roads in Mohammadpur can mix apartment buildings with independent houses and duplexes, and the two need different planning. A flat is usually handled in a single visit with the family at home; a house may have several floors, internal stairs, a rooftop and staff quarters, so the team works from the top down and may need more people. Either way, move-in cleaning here is timed around school and office hours where possible.
A broad mix of older family houses, low-rise blocks and newer apartment towers, with busy markets, shops, eateries, schools and clinics along the main roads.
Built-up kitchen grease, cockroaches, bathroom scale and monsoon mould are common in older homes, while new flats need post-construction and move-in cleaning. Shared water tanks and market-side shops and eateries also need regular attention.
The steps below are adjusted to your property and its condition, but the order rarely changes: understand the job, agree the scope, do the work, then review it together.
We check each room with you, note existing stains or damage and agree priorities.

Cabinets inside and out, counters, wall tiles, sink and fittings are degreased and cleaned.
Tiles, grout, taps, showers, toilets, basins and mirrors are descaled and sanitised.
Wardrobes, doors, switchboards, window frames, glass and grills are cleaned room by room.
Floors and balconies are scrubbed and mopped, then we walk through the property with you.
Removing dust, grease and old grime from kitchens and bathrooms makes the space healthier for your family.
