How Legit Services Helps Hosts Earn 5-Star Reviews

When it comes to short-term rentals like Airbnb, cleanliness isn’t just expected — it’s essential. A spotless, fresh, and welcoming space is the foundation of great guest experiences, glowing reviews, and repeat bookings.


At Legit Services, we specialize in professional Airbnb turnovers with a personal, family-owned touch. With more than 25 years of cleaning experience passed from mother to daughter, we understand what it means to deliver reliable, consistent, and thoughtful service — every single time.


Why Airbnb Cleaning Is Different

Airbnb and short-term rental cleanings are fast-paced and detail-driven. Turnovers often happen within a narrow window between guests, and there’s no room for error. Beyond making a space look clean, it has to feel clean — fresh sheets, sparkling bathrooms, no trace of the previous guests.



That’s why our Airbnb service goes beyond surface-level. We offer deep, comprehensive cleanings with attention to the small things: resetting the space, folding throws neatly, aligning decor, and even restocking essential supplies if requested.


What’s Included in Our Airbnb Turnover Service

Each cleaning is customized, but here’s what our standard Airbnb turnover includes:

  • Detailed room cleaning – including dusting, vacuuming, mopping, and surface disinfecting
  • Kitchen reset – clean appliances, wipe down counters, disinfect sink, restock coffee/tea as needed
  • Bathroom refresh – sanitize toilets, tubs, mirrors, fixtures, and neatly replace toiletries
  • Linen services – strip and make beds with fresh sheets and towels (yours or laundered off-site if arranged)
  • Trash removal – empty all bins, replace liners, sort recycling
  • Final touch check – we straighten, stage, and visually inspect for perfection
  • Damage or issue reports – we notify you of anything unusual or needing attention


Open Communication with Owners

Every Airbnb host has a unique setup, and no two homes are the same. That’s why we prioritize clear communication and custom checklists for every client. Before your first cleaning, we work with you to understand:

  • Your property’s layout and quirks
  • Where supplies are kept and how restocking works
  • Any special guest welcome details you like to include
  • Whether we’re laundering linens on-site or off-site
  • Keyless entry instructions or preferred access times


We encourage our clients to text or email us special requests at any time. Whether it's adding a welcome basket to the entry table, watering plants, or adjusting the thermostat before check-in, we’re happy to accommodate the details that set your rental apart.


Reliable and Licensed

Legit Services is a licensed cleaning business with decades of experience in residential and commercial properties. We bring that same level of professionalism to our Airbnb services — with the added warmth and care of a family-run team.


Your property is treated with respect, confidentiality, and a commitment to quality. You can count on us for reliable arrivals, consistent results, and open communication.


Flexible Scheduling for Hosts

We know the Airbnb world moves fast. Need a same-day turnover or a weekend refresh between guests? We offer flexible scheduling and can even set up recurring appointments for high-traffic listings.

If you’re managing multiple properties, we can coordinate scheduling across locations and keep each one consistently clean and guest-ready.
