Grime Guardians (651) 515-1478
Free home-cleaning assessment · Twin Cities · ~20 minutes

Your Saturday shouldn't be a second job.

You work all week. Then the weekend comes, and instead of your kids or your couch, it's the bathrooms. Again. The list in your head keeps scrolling.

So here's the offer: a free 10-point Gold Star home assessment from the Twin Cities' premium cleaning crew. You keep the written plan even if you never hire us.

A Grime Guardians professional cleans a Twin Cities kitchen while the homeowners relax
Your home gets handled while your time stays yours.

The house is quietly taking ten working weeks of your year.

Do the math. Three hours of cleaning a week is 156 hours a year.

Now add the laundry, the dishes, the nightly pickup. Call it eight hours a week. That's 416 hours: about ten working weeks of your year, spent on the house.

And here's the part nobody says out loud: even after all that, the deep stuff still doesn't get done. The oven. The shower glass. The baseboards.

It's not a discipline problem. It's a system problem. Nobody hands you a plan for your own home: which rooms are stealing your time, what actually needs a pro, and what takes ten minutes if you know the trick.

That plan is what the Gold Star Assessment gives you. Free.

What you get

Here's exactly what we walk through. All 10 points.

A vetted Grime Guardians pro walks your home with you. About 20 minutes, ten points:

Rooms you live in

  • Entryway, mudroom & main living area: where the outside walks in
  • Kitchen: counters, sink, appliance exteriors, backsplash
  • Bathrooms: toilets, showers/tubs, vanities, mirrors
  • Bedrooms: surfaces, floors, under-bed dust

Whole-home finish

  • Floors: carpet and hard floors, the high-traffic paths
  • Glass: windows, sliding doors, mirrors
  • Surfaces & high-touch points: counters, switches, handles, remotes
  • High dust-accumulation zones: baseboards, vents, ceiling fans, blinds

Daily time thieves

  • Trash, laundry & clutter reset: the daily churn that eats your evenings
  • Pet, odor & allergen hotspots: pet areas, litter zones, soft surfaces

You keep the plan whether you ever book us or not. If your home doesn't need a pro, we'll say so. You'll still know exactly where your weekends are going.

The standard

From years of buildup to done in one visit.

Before and after: oven interior with years of baked-on grime, deep-cleaned by Grime Guardians
The oven everyone puts off. Handled in one visit, photo-documented.
Before and after: bathroom faucet and sink with buildup and stains, polished to a shine by Grime Guardians
Same sink, same day. The Guardian standard, up close.

Every Grime Guardians clean is photo-documented. You see the before and after of your own home, delivered straight to your inbox. Vetted, background-checked teams. 100+ five-star Google reviews. The standard is the brand.

Bathrooms

  • Bathrooms scrubbed and disinfected — toilet, shower/tub, sinks, fixtures

How it works

Three steps. The first one takes 30 seconds.

  1. Pick a time below. Evenings and weekends included. You'll get a confirmation text within a minute.
  2. We walk your home together. Twenty minutes, ten points, zero judgment. We've seen everything, and we mean everything.
  3. You get the plan. Your written Gold Star Report lands within 48 hours: what to handle yourself, what's worth a pro, and what it would cost. Yours either way.
Why it's free

So what's in it for us?

Simple: the walkthrough is free because it works. Some of the homes we walk through hire us, and that pays for all of them. The rest keep the plan, and that's fine with us.

Fair warning: we're not the cheapest crew in the Twin Cities, and that's on purpose. Every Guardian is background-checked, trained to one standard, and photographs the work. If anything gets missed, the 48-hour make-it-right guarantee covers it. The assessment is how we prove the standard before you spend a dollar.

The 48-hour make-it-right guarantee

The assessment is free, the plan is yours, and nobody follows up with a hard sell. If you ever book a clean and something's not right, tell us within 48 hours and we'll come back and make it right, free. Fully insured, vetted, background-checked teams. That's the Guardian standard.

From the owner
"I started Grime Guardians because I watched hardworking people give their best hours to their house instead of their family. We built the crew, the checklists, and the photo-documented standard I'd want in my own home — because it IS the one I use in my own home."

1. Pick a time. You'll get a confirmation text within a minute. 2. We walk your home together. About 20 minutes. 3. Your written plan lands within 48 hours. Yours either way.
Pulling up real openings — one sec.

If it's not for you, no pressure at all. The plan is yours whether you ever book a clean or not.

Fair questions.

Is it really free?

Completely. You get the walkthrough and the written plan whether you book a clean or not. The assessment is how we earn trust. Some homes become clients, some don't, everybody gets the plan.

Do I need to be home?

It works best if you are, so you can point out what bugs you most. It's about 20 minutes and we schedule around you, evenings included.

Who's coming to my house?

A vetted, background-checked Grime Guardians professional. The same people who do our cleans, held to the same standard.

Is this just a sales pitch in disguise?

No. You'll get honest findings, including the stuff you can fix yourself in ten minutes. If we're a fit for the rest, we'll show you exactly what that looks like. If not, we'll say that too.

What does a clean actually cost?

It depends on your home's size and condition. That's exactly what the free assessment figures out. You get your price in writing before anything is booked, and nothing gets added without your approval first.

What if my house is… bad?

We've seen everything. There is no judgment on this crew, only a plan. That's the whole point.

One more thing.

PS: if you just want the cheapest one-time wipe-down, we're honestly not your crew. If you want your Saturdays back and a written plan for your home that's yours to keep, the walkthrough is free and takes 20 minutes. Pick your time here.
