I contacted Jeanette in July to inquire about cleaning my daughter’s bedroom, bathroom, and common areas of her apartment in Gainesville once she had moved to her new apartment.
When we went in after the work was complete my daughter said-“Wow- this is the cleanest this has ever been! Including the day I moved in last year!” I would recommend contacting Good Heart Homes for move in/ move out/ and maintenance cleaning.

Before Good Heart Homes cleaned for anyone else, our family spent more than 25 years turning over our own rental homes. We know exactly what a move-out inspection looks for — and it’s rarely the middle of the floor. It’s the drip pans, the fridge gaskets, the top of the door frames and the dust behind the washer.
Every move-out clean ends with dated photos of the finished job. Customers use them all the time when a property manager questions a charge.

What customers say
Jeannette and her team were awesome! Everyone was very nice and very committed to doing a good job. I am lucky to have found them on Thumbtack and was able to book a date quickly as she was responsive and answered all the questions I had. The whole team was super professional and threw out a ton of trash for me as well, for a move our clean.
I’ve had plenty of cleaning companies and I typically don’t write reviews but I feel like I just have to tell someone. Sylvia is amazing. The owner is kind and responsive. I ended up staying at home while they cleaned and organized and I observed how thorough they were. I was honestly so scared because she didn’t have a lot of reviews but I learned it’s a new company and I’m so happy I found them. Book them you won’t be disappointed
Questions
Move-in / move-out FAQ
Will this get my deposit back?
We can’t control what a landlord decides, but we clean to the standard move-out inspections look for and send dated photos. Many clients forward those photos directly to their property manager.
Can you come on short notice?
Often, yes. Last-minute move-outs are something we handle every week. Late July and early August are the exception — Gainesville’s lease turnover rush — so book early.
Do I need to be there?
No. Many move-outs happen after the keys are handed over. We can coordinate with you or your property manager for access.
