Cleaning services

Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is a privileged city. Living in the capital with the "best climate in the world", having Las Canteras beach just a stone's throw away or strolling through the history of Vegueta is a luxury. However, any local resident knows that this Atlantic paradise has a price to pay when it comes to home maintenance. The combination of trade winds, constant ocean humidity, saltpeter corrosion and, of course, increasingly frequent bouts of Calima, make cleaning a constant technical challenge.

Keeping a home or business spotless in Las Palmas is not the same as in Madrid or northern Europe. Here, dirt has a different mineral and chemical composition. The dust is not just dead skin or fibers; it is dust from the Sahara, loaded with silica and iron. The humidity is not just water; it carries salt that corrodes aluminum and dulls the shine of glass.

As leaders in the professional cleaning industry, we understand the idiosyncrasies of the island. We do not offer generic solutions. We offer cleaning services in Las Palmas specifically designed to combat the elements that assault your living space. This page is your complete guide to understanding how we can help you keep your home, office or vacation property in magazine condition, protecting your real estate investment against the weather.

Below, we break down our specialized interventions, connecting each service to the real needs of the Gran Canaria resident.

The Invisible Enemy: Understanding Dirt in Las Palmas

.

Before we talk about how we clean, it is critical to explain why standard domestic cleaning often fails in our city. There are three factors that define our strategy:

  1. The Calima (Suspended Dust): This meteorological phenomenon is the biggest enemy of hygiene in the Canary Islands. It is not simple dust. It is abrasive microparticles. If you try to clean the calima by wiping it with a dry cloth, what you do is sand the surface, scratching lacquered furniture, parquet floors and glass. Haze infiltrates through blind drawers and window tracks, creating a reddish or brownish layer that requires industrial vacuuming and specific "wet wiping" techniques.
  2. El Salitre (Marine Corrosion): Living near the sea (Avenida Maritima, Guanarteme, San Cristobal) means that the air carries salt. Salt is deposited on windows, aluminum frames and balcony railings. If it is not removed with products that neutralize the salts, corrosion is inevitable and the glass becomes permanently opaque.
  3. Moisture and Mold: With very high relative humidity, the interiors of closets, poorly ventilated bathrooms and areas behind headboards are prone to mold.
  4. Mold and Mildew: With very high relative humidity, the interiors of closets, poorly ventilated bathrooms and areas behind headboards are prone to mold and mildew.

Our services are calibrated to win this battle.

Deep-cleaning in Las Palmas: Detoxifying your Home

.

Deep-cleaning in Las Palmas

Weekly maintenance cleaning (the usual overhaul) is necessary, but insufficient in our climate. Calima dust accumulates in places we don't see: ceilings, plaster moldings, air conditioning vents and behind appliances.

Weak cleaning is necessary, but insufficient in our climate.

Our Deep Cleaning service is the ultimate solution to "reset" your home. It is especially popular after heavy haze episodes or at the change of season.

Anti Calima Protocol

.

When we undertake a thorough cleaning in Las Palmas, our main objective is to remove mineral particles.

  • HEPA vacuuming We do not sweep. Sweeping lifts the haze and re-suspends it in the air. We use hospital-grade vacuums with HEPA filters that trap microparts, improving air quality, which is vital for the island's asthma and allergic patients. Ceilings and Walls Many people forget that haze sticks to walls (especially if they have gotelé). We vacuum vertical walls and ceilings to remove that thin layer that darkens the rooms. Window Rails This is the critical point. The mixture of moisture and soil forms a mud that clogs the sliding windows, so common in the access to terraces and balconies canaries. We clean and lubricate these rails to get your windows sliding smoothly again.
  • .

Kitchens and Bathrooms: Total Hygiene

.

In kitchens, grease acts as a glue for environmental dust. In Las Palmas, where windows are often open to take advantage of the breeze, kitchen cabinets accumulate a sticky layer on top. We use industrial degreasers and dry steam to dissolve this mixture without damaging the furniture.
In the bathrooms, our focus is on joint mold and scale (although the supply water in some areas is desalinated and has less scale than on the peninsula, the buildup of soap residue and humidity create bio-filth in the showers). We apply fungicide treatments on silicones and gaskets to restore the original white.

Limpieza Fin de Obra en Las Palmas: Revelando la Belleza tras la Reforma

.

Limpieza Fin de Obra en Las Palmas

Gran Canaria is living a moment of constant renovation. From the refurbishment of land houses in historic neighborhoods to the renovation of apartments in the Puerto area. A construction site generates an immense amount of plaster, cement and saw dust.

In a dry climate like ours (when there is no Panza de Burro), this construction dust remains in suspension for days or weeks. If you try to clean it up with more household items, simply move it from one place to another. In addition, scrubbing the plaster dust creates a whitish paste that is difficult to remove.

Post-construction technology

Our End of Construction Cleaning service turns a work area into a livable home in a matter of hours.

  1. Waste removal We remove paint, silicone, cement and protective stickers from glass and bathroom fixtures. We use specialized blades that do not scratch.
  2. We use specialized blades that do not scratch. Floor Treatment In Las Palmas we find from old hydraulic tiles in Vegueta that require a lot of pampering, to modern procelánicos or microcement floors. We know which chemical product to use on each surface so as not to burn it and to remove the "veil of cement" (that opaque layer that remains after the work). Closing Cleaning Terraces and balconies are usually the big victims of renovations, accumulating debris and dirt. We leave them spotless so that you can start enjoying your outdoor space immediately.

Upholstery Cleaning: Health and Comfort

.
Upholstery Cleaningías

The lifestyle in Las Palmas is one of open doors and lots of outdoors. This means we bring home sand from the beach, saltpeter on our clothes and pollution from the traffic.

We have a lot of upholstery and upholstery cleaning.

Your sofas, mattresses, rugs and upholstered chairs act as giant filters that trap all of this, in addition to the airborne debris that thrives in the island's humid environment.

The Drying Challenge

.

One of the problems with cleaning upholstery on your own in Las Palmas is humidity. If you get the sofa too wet and it's a “Panza de Burro” (low clouds) day, the fabric can take days to dry, acquiring a musty smell or rotting on the inside.

If the sofa gets too wet, it can take days for the fabric to dry.

We restore the bright colors of your furniture and eliminate that “closed” smell so characteristicístico of the homes near the sea.
  • Cleaning for Tourist Apartments and Vacation Rentals

    .

    Cleaning for Tourist Apartmentsísticos

    We reach a crucial point in the city's economy. The boom in vacation rentals in areas such as Las Canteras, Triana or León y Castillo is undeniable. The owners know that the key to success on platforms such as Airbnb or Booking is cleanliness. One negative comment about hygiene can sink a listing.

    We know that the management and cleaning of tourist apartments Las Palmas requires a speed and a standard similar to that of a five-star hotel. The tourist who comes to Gran Canaria expects to find a pristine environment, free of sand and dust.

    El Estándar “Superanfitrión”

    .

    Our specialized service for holiday homes is adapted to the high turnover of guests:

    • Speed and Efficiency: We understand that sometimes there are only a few hours between the departure of one guest and the arrival of the next (check-in/check-out). We work with agility without sacrificing quality.
    • Attention to Detail: We check that there is no hair in the bathroom, that the dishes are spotless (no one wants to use a stained cup) and that not a grain of sand from the beach is left in the shower or on the sofa.
    • Revisió n de Desperfectos: While cleaning, we act as your eyes. If we see a blown bulb or a malfunction caused by the previous huésped, we let you know immediately.

    End-of-rental Cleaning and Moving: Guarantee of the Bond

    .

    The residential rental market in Las Palmas is very dynamic. Whether you are a tenant leaving an apartment in Mesa y Lopez and want to recover your deposit, or a landlord handing over the keys to new tenants, cleanliness is the determining factor.

    Critical Points in Inspections

    .

    Real estate agencies and landlords in Las Palmas check areas that are often overlooked:

    • Electric appliances: The inside of the oven, the fridge and the washing machine rubber (where black mould builds up). Electric appliances: The inside of the oven, the fridge and the washing machine rubber (where black mould builds up).
    • Floorboards and Frames: Areas where haze dust adheres over time.
    • Hood Filters: Accumulated grease is a frequent cause for complaint.
    • Filters and Hoods.
    • Bathrooms: Thorough disinfection of toilets is non-negotiable.
    • Bathrooms.

    Our Move-out Cleaning service ensures that the home is left in optimal condition. We come in, clean everything thoroughly, and give you a space ready for inspection or to move in with complete bio-security.

    Glass Cleaning: Atlantic-clearance

    .

    Glass cleaning in Las Palmas is an often frustrating task. You can leave them perfect in the morning and, by the afternoon, the sea breeze has left them veiled with a layer of damp saltpetre. Or worse, a light rain with calima arrives and leaves them covered with muddy drops.

    Dirty windows not only spoil the facade; they prevent you from enjoying the wonderful views of the sea or the city and reduce natural light. In addition, if saltpetre is not periodically removed from the aluminum frames, they end up pitting and irreversibly damaged.

    Técnica Profesional y Seguridad.

    Our team of glaziers uses specific tools and products that repel water and dust, ensuring that the glass remains cleaner for longer.

    • Frames and Tracks We don't just clean the glass. We clean the frame (where corrosion accumulates) and the rims.
    • Accessibility We clean hard-to-reach glass, enclosed terrace verandas and commercial storefronts in complete safety.
    • Elimination of marks We remove old stickers, limescale residues from automatic sprinklers in villas and paint stains.

    Office, Premises and Community Cleaning

    .

    Las Palmas is the economic engine of the islands. From offices in Sebadal to boutiques in Triana or offices in Ciudad Jardín. The image of your business is your business card.

    The working environment in Las Palmas suffers a lot from traffic and constant ventilation. A dirty office, with dust on the baseboards or fingerprints on the glass door, transmits slovenliness. In addition, a clean environment improves productivity and employee health, reducing allergies and sick leave.

    We offer tailor-made maintenance plans:

    • Flexible Schedules We clean outside of your business hours so as not to disturb.
    • Computer Equipment Careful cleaning of screens and keyboards.
    • Floors Shine maintenance on marble floors or technical cleaning of vinyl floors and carpets.

    Guia de limpieza por Barrios: Cada Zona es un Mundo

    In our experience working throughout the city, we have learned that cleaning in Isleta is not the same as cleaning in Tafira. Here we show you how we adapt our services according to your location:

    Zona Puerto - Las Canteras (Guanarteme, Santa Catalina)

    • The Challenge: Pure saltpetre and sand. The buildings on the front line suffer brutal corrosion. Humidity is at a maximum.
    • Our Solution: High frequency cleaning of windows with anti-saltpeter products. Deep cleaning of upholstery to remove sand and dust mites. Metal protection on terraces. Special focus on cleaning tourist apartments Las Palmas due to the high concentration of holiday rentals here.

    Zona Alta (Ciudad Alta, 7 Palmas, Escaleritas)

    • The Challenge: The wind. These areas are more exposed to the Trade Winds, which means that more dust and dirt from the street comes in.
    • Our Solution: Special attention to blinds, window tracks and balconies. Deep vacuuming of textiles.
    • Our Solution.

    Historic Quarter (Vegueta, Triana)

    .
    • The Challenge: Old buildings with high ceilings, hardwood or hydraulic floors, and interior courtyards. Dust accumulates in hard-to-reach moldings.
    • Our Solution: Use of poles and scaffolding for cleaning at height. pH-neutral products to care for centuries-old wood and heritage flooring.

    Tafira y Zonas Residenciales

    .
    • The Challenge: Greener surroundings, which brings pollen and plant debris. Larger houses with gardens and garages.
    • Our Solution: Seasonal deep cleanings. Cleaning of porches, garages and large windows. Treatment against insects in entrance areas.

    The Importance of "Mosquito Nets" in Las Palmas

    .

    Nearly every window on the island has mosquito nets installed, not only for mosquitoes, but to try to keep out some dirt. However, the mosquito netting becomes a "dust wall". If it is not cleaned, the air does not pass through and, when it rains, the dirt on the screen stains the glass.

    In our deep cleaning and window cleaning services, we include the cleaning of insect screens (with in situ steam or disassembly and pressure washing if possible), restoring natural ventilation to your home.

    Professional Tips for Maintenance in Las Palmas

    .

    To provide additional value, we share some tricks we recommend to our clients to maintain cleanliness between our professional visits:

    • During Calima Never open windows to “ventilate” during a calima episode. Keep everything hermetically sealed. Put wet rags on door sills and window tracks to trap dust that tries to get in.
    • .
    • Ventilate The best time to ventilate in Las Palmas is usually mid-morning, when the nighttime humidity has dissipated but before the afternoon wind blows hard. 10 minutes is enough.. Humidity Control Use dehumidifiers in built-in closets (the famous “dry-balls”). This prevents clothes from getting musty smells and makes it easier to clean them later on. Glasses If you live near the sea, try to rinse the outside windows with fresh water regularly to remove the salt, even if you don't clean them thoroughly. Dried salt is what stings the glass. .

    The Value of Your Free Time

    .

    Living in Gran Canaria offers endless leisure possibilities. Do you really want to spend your Saturday morning cleaning blinds or scrubbing limescale in the bathroom? Would you rather be wrestling with the dust from the renovation or having an aperitif in the Plaza de las Ranas?

    Hiring a professional cleaning service is not an expense, it's an investment in quality of life. It is buying time to go to the beach, to climb the Roque Nublo or simply to rest in a home that conveys peace and not stress.

    We take care of the hard stuff: the grease, the mildew, the haze and the saltpeter. You just take care of enjoying life in Las Palmas.
