Houston · Short-term rental turnovers
One of the only Houston cleaning companies built for short-term rentals alone. Extensive photo evidence. Supplies counted and resupplied. Damage flagged before the next guest checks in.
Cleaning for owners on the world’s leading short-term rental platforms
What every turnover covers
A full reset after every checkout. Kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and living areas, worked from the same checklist every time.
Patio, balcony and entry swept and wiped so the first thing a guest sees is ready. A full patio clean is available as an extra.
Fresh sheets on every bed, towels staged, and toilet paper, soap and the rest counted and topped up from your closet.
About 30 photos at the end of every clean, so you can see the place is guest ready without driving over.
Why we exist
STRatus Cleaning started as the in-house team for the rentals our parent company, STRatus Stays, manages across Houston. We needed cleans we could trust without driving over to check, so we built a standard around proof: if it was cleaned, there's a photo of it.
Our cleaners only do short-term rental turnovers. They work from a checklist, photograph the property room by room, and take damage photos the way Airbnb, VRBO, and the other booking sites need them to approve a claim. Now we offer that same standard to owners who run their own listings.
The difference
A typical cleaner~ 4–6
A wide shot of each main room, if you ask for them. Nothing inside the appliances, under the beds, or in the supply closet.
A STRatus turnover~ 30
Every room, inside the fridge and microwave, under the beds and sofa, and the supply stock on the shelf. See the full shot list.
Hatched frames are placeholders. Real photos from a documented turnover are on the way.
Supplies
Every turnover, the cleaner counts what the last guest used and restocks anything below your par level before the next check-in. The count goes on the job record, so you can see the closet without opening it.
Supplies are billed at cost plus the payment processing fee, with no markup.
| Item | Par | Found | Added |
|---|---|---|---|
| Toilet paper | 12 | 5 | +7 |
| Paper towels | 4 | 2 | +2 |
| Hand soap | 3 | 3 | 0 |
| Dish soap | 1 | 0 | +1 |
| Shampoo & conditioner | 4 | 1 | +3 |
| Coffee pods | 20 | 6 | +14 |
| Trash bags | 15 | 9 | +6 |
Par is the stock level set for your property. Anything below it is restocked before the next check-in.
