Lowcountry Cleaning Service is a professional cleaning service specializing in residential, commercial, and construction cleaning in the Charleston area. Our company, founded by Kelly Kennedy in 2003, was born out of her own negative experience with local cleaning service providers. Feeling frustrated with the lack of professional cleaning services, Kelly set out with a goal to provide Charleston with top-notch, reliable cleaning services. Her persistence and dedication, combined with her attention to detail paid off: Lowcountry Cleaning Service grew rapidly in the residential setting from her clients’ satisfaction and word-of-mouth references.
In 2004, Kelly’s husband, Eric Kennedy, started Lowcountry Commercial Cleaning, which focuses on commercial janitorial cleaning services. Eric and his crew can handle anything from a small office to new construction cleanings of apartment communities. Don’t forget: Cleaning services are a business expense–write them off!!

We work with real estate agents and investors across the Charleston area. We understand that when selling or renting a property it must look “pristine” clean.
Builders
Lowcountry Cleaning Service offers cleaning services for model homes to some of the biggest builders in the nation. These are homes that sell for over $100,000-500,000, and they demand perfection. We are experienced with the needs of builders and how to provide this service in the most cost-effective manner.

We can clean the common areas on a weekly basis or provide move out cleans when a tenant leaves. We understand that tenants can often leave a mess behind.

Rest assured that we can handle just about anything thrown at us. You understand a good cleaning service is one of the most cost-effective ways to help a home sell. We can provide one-time cleaning or ongoing service while your home is on the market.

Investors
Lowcountry Cleaning Service cleans homes for investors that rehab homes across Charleston. We, of course, do the clean up when the rehab is done, but where we really shine is before you even get started. Several of our investors send us in to clean the kitchen, bath, and appliances before they even start a rehab to see if we can save these expensive items. If we can save just one tub alone, that will save you thousands of dollars in replacement costs.
Our Service Agreement
There is no term to our agreement. You may cancel your service at any time. We also reserve the right to cancel your service at any time.
We will provide the most professional cleaning service where all the employees are bonded and insured and have been thoroughly trained with the most technologically advanced products and equipment.
We will arrive with all of the cleaning supplies including vacuums and other equipment to do the job, but we will be mindful of what chemicals you use in your home, especially with specialty surfaces like granite, stainless steel, and wood floors. We will always check pantries and under sinks for the products that you might be using on these surfaces.
We guarantee our cleaners will not smoke, drink, eat, watch TV, or listen to the radio in the homes they are cleaning.
We will arrive on the day scheduled as requested and agreed upon; however, Lowcountry Cleaning Service reserves the right to close our office at any time, due to inclement weather.
Lockouts
We have great staff for a reason. We take care of them, so they are motivated to take care of you. If it is necessary for you to cancel or skip your regular cleaning, we would appreciate a phone call prior to the cleaning team’s arrival. If we do not receive 48-business-hour notice prior to their arrival, a 50% lockout fee will be assessed to cover the cost of the staff that arrive at your door. The same fee will be charged should you fail to leave a door unlocked if that was the agreement made on entrance to your home.
Payment
Since we normally do not bill for services provided, payment is expected at the time of cleaning. We accept cash, checks written out to Lowcountry Cleaning Service, or MasterCard, Visa, and American Express. If payment is not received at time of cleaning, a $5.00 finance charge will be assessed. A 18% finance charge will be added to unpaid balances over 30 days and accrue monthly.
Cancellations and reschedules
We understand schedules change or additional cleanings may sometimes be needed. Please give our office a call and we will do everything we can to accommodate your request. Please keep in mind, should you reschedule your cleaning we may not be able to accommodate your request with the same cleaning staff (they might have another client that date and time). Also, please note that with all cancellations or reschedules, a 48-business-hour window prior to the cleaning is required. (No weekend voicemail cancellations). Failure to cancel, skip, or reschedule outside of this window may result in having a cancellation fee applied to your account. Our staff members work very hard at being timely and reliable. As such, short-notice cancellations are unfair to them and have a direct impact on their income levels. To try and take care of these staffers, cancellation fees are paid directly to the staff when they are applied. Cancellation fees are 50% of the price of the service scheduled.
Sickness
If someone in your home is sick (contagious), please contact our office; we will be happy to reschedule your cleaning.
