(607NewsNow) — The holidays are around the corner, and with them comes increased foot traffic and higher expectations for cleanliness. Now is the perfect time to plan ahead and prepare your space for guests or customers:

· Act early: Secure your cleaning schedule before the holiday rush. High-quality cleaners book up quickly as demand surges in November and December.

· Pest-proofing: As temperatures drop, bugs and rodents look for indoor shelter. Routine professional cleaning helps eliminate attractants like crumbs, clutter, and moisture.

· Dust & debris: Indoor heating stirs up dust, especially in vents, baseboards, and blinds. A thorough fall clean helps control allergens and keep surfaces looking sharp.

· Floor protection: Salt, dirt, and mud increase this time of year. Frequent cleanings preserve floor finishes and reduce damage from grit and moisture.

· Bathrooms & kitchens: These areas are heavily used during gatherings and shopping season. A deep clean ensures a sanitary, welcoming environment for guests or staff.

Castle Services of Ithaca can adjust frequency and services to meet your holiday needs. Whether it’s a single deep clean or an increased routine, they’re here to help. Call (607) 279-2532 or get your quote now.
