What is included
Our one-time cleaning service covers the main living areas of the home and focuses on the dirt, dust, and buildup that make a space feel neglected. Every home is different, so we tailor the visit to the size of the property, the condition of the space, and your priorities.
Common tasks may include:
- Dusting reachable surfaces, furniture, shelves, and décor
- Wiping down counters, tables, and general surfaces
- Cleaning kitchen exteriors, including cabinet fronts and appliance surfaces
- Scrubbing sinks, faucets, and countertops
- Cleaning stovetops and exterior appliance areas
- Cleaning and sanitizing bathroom sinks, counters, toilets, tubs, and showers
- Wiping mirrors and glass surfaces as needed
- Vacuuming carpets and rugs
- Sweeping and mopping hard floors
- Emptying trash and replacing liners when provided
- General straightening of the cleaned areas
- Spot cleaning smudges on doors, frames, and high-touch points where needed
We can also put extra attention on the rooms that matter most to you. Many customers want us to focus heavily on kitchens and bathrooms, while others need help in guest rooms, entryways, or living spaces before company arrives.
Cleaning checklist approach
We follow a practical cleaning checklist so nothing important gets missed. This gives our customers a clear idea of what to expect and helps us deliver consistent results. We work from top to bottom and room by room, paying attention to visible dust, grime, fingerprints, floor debris, and the overall presentation of the space.
Typical checklist areas include:
- Kitchen: counters, sink, faucet, cabinet fronts, exterior of appliances, stovetop surface, table, visible crumbs, and floors
- Bathrooms: toilet, tub, shower, sink, vanity, mirrors, fixtures, counters, and floors
- Bedrooms: dusting surfaces, vacuuming or mopping floors, wiping reachable areas, and tidying the overall appearance
- Living areas: dusting furniture and surfaces, straightening, vacuuming rugs or carpet, and mopping hard flooring
- Entryways and hallways: dust removal, surface wipe-downs, and floor cleaning
If there are special concerns, such as heavier buildup in one bathroom or a kitchen that needs extra work before an event, let us know in advance so we can plan for it properly.
Benefits of a one-time professional cleaning
A professional one-time clean saves time, lowers stress, and gives you better results than trying to squeeze everything in on your own. It is especially helpful when you already have enough on your plate. Instead of spending hours scrubbing, dusting, and mopping, you can focus on guests, moving plans, work, or family.
Customers often choose this service because it helps them:
- Create a clean, welcoming home fast
- Catch up after life gets busy
- Make kitchens and bathrooms feel fresher and more sanitary
- Improve the look of the home before visitors or events
- Reduce stress before move-in or move-out day
- Enjoy a cleaner space without committing to recurring service
Even one visit can make a big difference in how your home feels. A clean space can feel calmer, more comfortable, and easier to manage afterward.

How to prepare for your appointment

Clear communication helps us give you the best result. We always encourage customers to share their goals, deadlines, and any special concerns ahead of time.

After our first cleaning there were a few items missed and Alexa voluntarily sent someone right back out to clean and correct the issues at no extra cost. She is definitely passionate about customer satisfaction. It’s very easy to book and manage cleanings and very nice to be able to pay with credit card online through the online booking system. We’ve had Kasandra clean our home a few times now and she does a great job. She works very hard and is a very kind person.

"I had major smoke damage in my garage after an electric bike had battery essential. After two weeks of ventilating it, the smell had partially subsided, but the entire garage from floor to ceiling needed to be wiped down due black sut. I called several professional, cleaning companies and the price was in the thousands. I then called Angelo and he was kind enough to send two people out and for a very reasonable price. We empty the entire garage, wiped everything down, including the floors and the ceilings and the wall walls and put everything back. It was a lot of work but his team of cleaners did an excellent job. I could not be happy and highly recommend."
"I left a 5 star review on Yelp after my initial clean, and came back to say how continually delightful Ruby’s Cleaning has been! I’ve brought them on for full housecleanings every other week, and while I’ve worked with a few ladies, Kassandra is my regular cleaner. They are all absolutely wonderful! Very professional, thorough, consistent, and friendly! I’ve had hard end-of-day times, I’ve had phone meetings during a clean where I’ll need a certain room done first, I’ve had days where I’d be scheduled for a clean but then called in to work; they’ve handled everything I’ve thrown at them with grace and poise. I work very weird hours, and Alexa (the owner) has been very flexible and accommodating in my scheduling— definitely a lifesaver! The online portal is clear and easy to navigate, but I’ve also been able to text/call and typically get a response within a few hours (I’d say normally with in one hour tbh). Prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality of the clean. If you’re on the fence, I’d say go for it!!! And if you’re not on the fence… then why are you reading this review? Overall: five stars, ten out of ten, excellent! Would definitely recommend to a friend!"
"Alyssa was amazing, she did an exceptional job getting us back to normal after the holidays. Would rate a 10 if I could!"
"Well worth the service. Ruby’s Cleaning exceeds our expectations and the staff are amazing. Great communication and they were thorough with the service. Thank you for everything! Definitely will book again."

"Rachel and Roberto were very nice and did thorough job cleaning with little instruction from me. The house looked and smelled lovely when they left. I will use Ruby’s again."
"Love the work that Ruby’s Cleaning has done for us! They are always doing a great job!"
"Ruby’s Cleaning did a great job on my move out cleaning. The we’re good communicators on the quote and able to squeeze me in last minute which I really appreciated. Alexia did a great job cleaning the place. Dusted even the hidden areas and scrubbed hard to clean the windows. At the end she had me walk through and make sure I was happy."
"Ruby’s Cleaning really came through for us! Their cleaner did a spectacular job on a move out clean of my daughter’s casita. We appreciated their flexibility and willingness to accommodate several time changes. I highly recommend Ruby’s!!"
"You can tell this business is owner-run with care. Alexa goes above and beyond to make sure customers are happy, and her integrity really stands out. Scheduling is so easy with their booking system, and they’re incredibly flexible. A great experience all around."
"Ruby’s cleaning is not only someone I trust to clean my own home, but a company I trust enough to refer all my friends and family to. They do a fantastic job every time, but most importantly, they truly care about their customers. I have seen many cleaners come in and do the bare minimum, but Ruby’s cleaners are here to make long-lasting relationships with their clientele. I cannot recommend them enough for all their hard work and dedication to their clients."
"I can’t be more thankful! Great cleaning job and amazing communication - I had to reschedule a few times due to construction and holidays, but their team is so patient, flexible and fast in response! Thank you and will come back for the next job."
"I had a great experience with Ruby's Cleaning San Diego. We hired them to clean my brother's house as a gift. The team was professional, punctual, and incredibly thorough. They paid attention to details that most cleaning services overlook and left my home feeling genuinely refreshed and spotless. Alexa was a joy to work with and maintained great communication the whole time. HIghly recommend."

"Ruby’s Cleaning did such a great job! The cleaners were punctual, efficient, and left the areas spotless! We will definitely be using Ruby’s Cleaners again. Five stars for sure, thank you Ruby’s!!"
"So glad I chose Ruby’s Cleaning! Our cleaner was Christina and she was on time and polite. She cleaned everything quickly and thoroughly and was even understanding when our dog barked at her! Definitely will be a repeat customer. 5 Stars!!"
"Ruby’s Cleaning San Diego did such a great job with our place. Super friendly, easy to work with, and the house feels fresh and spotless. Definitely glad we found them!"
"I'm an Airbnb owner and have gone through a few different cleaning companies over the years. I was never fully satisfied with the outcome of the other companies I had used, so this year I gave Ruby's Cleaning a try. I have been really impressed so far with how reliable and stable they have been, and they always leave our property looking amazon. I'll be a continued customer moving forward. Ruby's Cleaning San Diego's reply"
"I was so impressed with Ruby's cleaning service. Monica did such an amazing job and was so thorough. I have a dog and 2 cats who are shedders. Due to medical reasons I couldn't keep up. My house looks terrific and my stress levels are way down because of it. I highly recommend."
"Great communication and planning from the very beginning. Alexa made everything clear and simple. The quoted price was very fair and did not change through completion of the cleaning. The cleaning itself was amazing. Monica revitalized the space, hitting places either too long neglected or never even considered by us. She was punctual, polite, and communicative. Next time we need cleaning service we won't be shopping around."
"Ruby's Cleaning is absolutely fantastic! Alexa (the owner) was warm, prompt, and professional in communication, and during our phone call, she really listened to exactly what I needed and was able to match me up with Monica and Kasandra for an initial deep clean. Both ladies arrived on time and ready to work. After a brief tour of the house, they divided and conquered! My home was (admittedly) super untidy after a few big life changes, including a family tragedy. They were so sweet and friendly-- not to mention efficient! I also had a firm end-of-day deadline of 4pm, they were finished by 3:30, perfect timing! They did SO MUCH more than I could've hoped for and honestly, my home is transformed. I'll definitely recommend them and I'll for sure re-hire them in the future! Five stars"
