Planning to host for St. Patrick's Day? π
You've got the food planned, the drinks ready, and your guest list confirmed. But there are two things standing between you and actually enjoying your party:
- Cleaning your entire apartment before everyone arrives
- Facing the disaster zone the morning after
The last thing you want is to spend March 16th scrubbing your apartment AND March 18th recovering from the aftermath.
We can help with both.
The Reality of Hosting in NYC
Let's be honest about what hosting a party in a New York City apartment actually looks like:
Before the party: You're frantically cleaning while trying to prep food, get yourself ready, and somehow shower before guests arrive at 7pm.
After the party: You wake up Sunday morning to empty bottles everywhere, mysterious sticky spots on your floor, a kitchen that looks like a war zone, and a bathroom you don't even want to think about.
Both scenarios are exhausting.
Professional pre and post-party cleaning removes all of that stress.

What the Morning After a Party Really Looks Like
Let's talk about what you're actually facing after a St. Patrick's Day party in a NYC apartment:
Kitchen:
- Sink full of dishes (or dishwasher packed)
- Counters covered in bottles, cups, half-eaten food
- Sticky spills on counters and floors
- Trash overflowing
- Mystery liquids you don't want to identify
Living Room:
- Bottles and cups on every surface
- Crumbs ground into carpet or floor
- Furniture moved and disorganized
- Spills on upholstery or floors
- General chaos
Bathroom:
- Let's just say it needs serious sanitization
- Paper towels everywhere
- Wet floors
- Things you don't want to deal with
Throughout:
- Sticky floors in random spots
- Fingerprints and smudges everywhere
- That lingering party smell (beer, food, people)
- Exhaustion and zero motivation to clean
Professional post-party cleaning means you don't deal with ANY of this.

Special St. Patrick's Day Considerations
St. Patrick's Day parties create specific cleaning challenges:
Green Beer Spills
Green food coloring can stain. Post-party cleaning addresses these quickly before they set.
High Traffic
More guests = more wear on your apartment. Pre-party cleaning ensures everything starts fresh. Post-party handles the aftermath.
Extended Parties
St. Patrick's Day parties tend to run longer and later. More party time = more cleanup needed.
Outdoor Elements
March weather means guests tracking in dirt, salt, moisture. Post-party cleaning addresses floor care specifically.
FAQ: Pre & Post-Party Cleaning
Do I need to be home during cleaning?
Pre-party: Many clients leave during cleaning and return to a spotless apartment.
Post-party: Most clients leave (or are still sleeping!) while we clean.
What if my party gets out of hand?
We've seen it all. If damage occurs (broken glass, major spills, etc.), just let us know when we arrive. We'll handle it.
Can you work around my schedule?
Yes. We offer flexible scheduling for both pre and post-party cleaning.
What if I need to reschedule?
Just give us 24-hour notice and we'll work with you to find a new time.
Do you provide cleaning supplies?
Yes, for an additional $70 we provide all supplies. Or you can provide your own preferred products.
How long does post-party cleaning take?
Typically 3-5 hours depending on party size and mess level. We'll give you an estimate when you book.
Beyond St. Patrick's Day: Year-Round Party Cleaning
While we're focused on St. Patrick's Day, our pre and post-party cleaning works for any event:
- Holiday parties (Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's)
- Birthday celebrations
- Graduation parties
- Anniversary gatherings
- Super Bowl parties
- Game day hosting
- Dinner parties
- Any time you're entertaining
Same principle: We clean before so you can enjoy hosting, and after so you can enjoy recovering.
Don't Face the Cleanup Alone
Here's what hosting looks like without professional cleaning:
Thursday-Friday: Panic cleaning while trying to prep
Saturday: Your party (hopefully you had time to shower)
Sunday: 6-8 hours cleaning hungover
Monday: Exhausted at work, still finding sticky spots
Here's what hosting looks like WITH professional cleaning:
Thursday-Friday: Relaxed food prep, actually excited for your party
Saturday: Your party (you look great, apartment looks great, you're enjoying yourself)
Sunday: Brunch, recovery, relaxation
Monday: Back to normal life, clean apartment, zero cleaning hangover
The choice is obvious.
