Personal Message from Operations
“I'm a PLNU Parent First, a Cleaning Company Founder Second.”

My daughter is entering her second year at Point Loma Nazarene University (PLNU) this fall.

At the end of her freshman year, I lived the move-out reality firsthand—spending hours scrubbing down her room, wiping grime off baseboards, and making sure everything was in order to avoid unexpected property fees. Fast forward to this August, and we're doing the reverse: walking into a new dorm/apartment that needs a thorough, deep detail before she unpacks.

As a parent, you shouldn't have to spend your student's move-in weekend on your hands and knees scrubbing someone else's leftover dust, soap scum, or kitchen grime. We created our Student & Dorm Move-In Protocol specifically to give parents complete peace of mind that their child is stepping into a fresh, spotless, and healthy home away from home.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything parents and students need to know before booking.

Do I need to be present during the clean?

Not at all. Many parents book us from out of state. We coordinate key retrieval directly with your student, resident advisor, or lockbox. You will receive notification as soon as the service is complete.

Is your cleaning process safe for dorms with sensitive air quality rules?

Yes! Our core detailing relies on 275°F thermal shock steam and child- and pet-conscious cleaning solutions that leave zero harsh chemical fumes or sticky residues behind.

Can we book both a move-out clean and a move-in clean?

Absolutely. We offer streamlined scheduling for families needing to clean an outgoing apartment at the end of the term and a new incoming rental in August.

How do you document move-out cleanliness for landlords?

Under California Civil Code § 1950.5 and AB 12, landlords must provide itemized receipts for deductions over $125. We provide detailed photo documentation of our completed work for your records.

Place was immaculate when they finished. I walked in and it legit smelled brand new — not that fake lemon cleaner smell either. They hit every corner.

As a remote Airbnb host, I rely on great communication. When my guests arrived, they raved about how thoroughly cleaned and fresh everything was.

Cleaner did a great job and got some difficult stains out of my oven. Good price for the services offered.

Excellent work. Steamed the kitchen and 2 bathrooms. Organized the closets, took stains off the carpets along with the other usual stuff. House was clinically clean.

Hired Bravo Maids for both our move-out clean and our move-in clean. They gave us a quote for a great price for both services combined.

Minimally disruptive during a workday while we worked from home. Coordinating our clean has been very easy over phone/text.

Great to come home to a place that smelled fresh and literally sparkled. I would highly recommend Bravo Maids.
