Deep Cleaning a Ballard Craftsman Home

Ballard's 1920s Craftsman homes need a different deep-cleaning playbook. Here's exactly what we run on the original fir floors, leaded glass, and salt-air windows.

Heritage surfaces

  • Use pH-neutral wood solution on original fir (Bona is the standard)
  • Never use ammonia-based glass cleaner on leaded glass
  • Avoid abrasive scrubs on original tile
  • Hand-wipe all original baseboards and trim

Salt-air window care

West-facing windows pull marine air off Shilshole. Add an interior glass wipe-down to every recurring visit, and a full window-track clean to every quarterly deep.
