Complete Directory of Dublin Residential Hygiene Services
For over four decades, the O'Shea family has set the benchmark for thorough, meticulous property hygiene across South Dublin. Whether preparing a rental property for a crucial landlord inspection, performing an exhaustive annual spring clean, or detailing an executive home ahead of open market viewings, our dedicated, Garda-vetted teams deliver perfection on every visit.
As the dedicated residential division of the O'Shea cleaning group, GeneralCleaning.ie works hand-in-hand with our sister company Ace Carpet Cleaners (specialists in deep hot water textile extraction) and Ace Cleaning (corporate facilities management). This integrated network allows us to handle every domestic challenge—from multi-appliance bio-oven detailing to subfloor moisture mitigation.

Explore Tile & Stone →Our 7-Stage Residential Cleaning Methodology
Unlike casual domestic cleaners who simply wipe visible surfaces, our crew follows an engineered multi-stage protocol:
- Initial Property Survey & Material Identification: We identify natural stone, delicate timber veneers, wool carpets, and acrylic surfaces to match exact pH cleaning solutions.
- High-Level Dry Soil & Dust Extraction: HEPA-14 cyclonic vacuums remove dust from ceiling coving, curtain pelmets, light fixtures, and tops of wardrobes without re-circulating particulates.
- Thermal Dip-Tank Kitchen Appliance Care: Racks, trays, and fan elements are dismantled and treated in vehicle-mounted heated dip tanks with 100% non-caustic degreasers.
- Sanitary Acid Chelation & Descaling: Hard water calcium carbonate (CaCO3) deposits on glass shower enclosures and ceramic glazes are dissolved using non-toxic sulfamic acids.
- Low-Moisture Woodwork & Vertical Wipe-Down: Skirtings, architraves, door panels, and internal window frames are hand-washed to remove fingerprints, oils, and scuffs.
- Dual-Vacuum Carpet & Upholstery Extraction: High-heat steam injection lifts embedded dust mites, pet hair, and traffic lanes, recovering 94%+ of rinse moisture for rapid drying.
- Final Quality Audit & Landlord Certification: Brian O'Shea conducts a photographic audit to issue your digital deposit compliance certificate.
