What's different about cleaning here
The Heritage District is full of real Victorians
These houses have more surface per square foot than anything built since: tall baseboards, picture rails, panelled doors, deep window casings, original fir floors and pocket doors. Every one is a horizontal ledge that collects dust. A cleaner used to modern drywall boxes finishes early and leaves a grey line along every rail. We budget the time those details actually take and say so upfront.
Mare Island and the waterfront get salt air
Homes near the water collect a salt haze on glass, mirrors and metal that smears if you dry-polish it. Glass gets washed, metal gets dried afterwards. It is a small change in method that makes the difference between clean and streaked.
Hiddenbrooke and Glen Cove are the opposite problem
Newer hillside developments with engineered floors, big windows and tall ceilings. Almost no fragile trim, but a lot of glass and high dusting, plus HVAC returns that grey quickly. Different time budget, different products.
