Kays Cleaning Services: House Cleaning in Tampa and Orlando

Kays Cleaning Services is a house and office cleaning company working out of Tampa, Florida. The business opened in 2022 and now handles both homes and workplaces across the Tampa Bay area. Its niche is local cleaning, a field where reputation tends to count for more than advertising ever will.

The company grew out of a one-person idea from founder Kayky Andre, who by his own account had watched too many cleaning firms treat homes like ticket numbers. Four years later, the roster lists more than a dozen crew members and a running count of over 2,000 homes cleaned. The About page notes that most new clients arrive through referrals, which says a lot in this line of work.

What makes someone stick with a cleaning company for years? Usually the people who show up. Every cleaner at Kays is interviewed in person, background checked, and kept on payroll rather than brought in as a subcontractor. Clients also get a dedicated crew, so the same faces return visit after visit, a bit like seeing the same barber each month; the person already knows what you want before you say it.

That familiarity gets paired with a 40-point checklist applied to every job. The idea is plain enough: visit one and visit one hundred should look the same. As a reviewer, I find a written standard like that more telling than any slogan, since it gives clients something concrete to hold the crew to.

The service menu splits into six options. Homeowners can book deep cleaning, regular cleaning, move-in or move-out cleaning, and post-construction cleanup. On the commercial side there's office cleaning, plus a turnover service built for vacation rentals. Each one has its own page with a comparison table, so telling them apart takes about a minute.

Deep cleaning is the flagship. Crews go inside cabinets and ovens, behind and under appliances, into grout lines and window tracks, and they descale bathroom fixtures while they're at it. A standard home takes somewhere between three and six hours. The company recommends it once a season, or as a first visit before switching to a recurring plan.

Regular cleaning is the maintenance half of that pairing. It runs weekly, every two weeks, or monthly, always with the same assigned crew. Plenty of clients start with one deep clean and then shift to upkeep, much the way you'd repaint a wall once and just touch it up afterward.

Moving is where the offer gets more specific. The move-in and move-out service targets empty homes and ends with photos of the finished result, something landlords and property managers tend to care about when deposits are on the line. Post-construction cleanup deals with drywall dust, paint flecks, and the small punch-list details that hang around after a renovation.

Offices get their own arrangement, with evening and weekend windows so desks, lobbies, and conference rooms are ready before staff walk in. Vacation rental owners can book turnovers between guests, and those visits include a linen swap and a restock of basics. Anyone who has juggled an Airbnb calendar knows how tight those gaps between check-out and check-in can be, so a crew built around them is a practical fit.

Supplies travel with the crew. Vacuums, microfiber, and professional-grade products all arrive at the door, and the site describes the products as eco-friendly, pet safe, and kid safe. Clients don't have to provide a thing, which removes one of the usual back-and-forth questions before a first appointment.

The guarantee is short and easy to follow. If something falls short, the client reports it within 24 hours and the crew comes back to redo it at no charge. There are no contracts to sign, quote requests get an answer within about an hour during business days, and the website has a booking calendar where you pick a date, a time slot, and a service in a few clicks.

Coverage runs wider than the name might suggest. Beyond Tampa itself, the company maintains service pages for St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Wesley Chapel, Lutz, and Lakeland, with more for Orlando, Winter Haven, Bradenton, and West Palm Beach. That adds up to four core counties around the bay and a reach that stretches toward central Florida and the east coast.

Credentials line up the way you'd expect from a company chasing long-term clients rather than one-off jobs. Kays is insured and bonded, holds a 4.9 rating on Google, picked up an Angi Best of the Year award for 2025, and belongs to the Carrollwood Area Business Association. None of that replaces a first visit, but it does cut down the guesswork.

One detail sits apart from the sales pitch entirely. The company partners with Cleaning for a Reason, a nonprofit that arranges free home cleaning for people going through cancer treatment, and Kays donates sessions through that network. In my opinion, giving work away says more about a local business than any badge on a homepage.

The website itself carries a fair share of the load. There's a before-and-after photo gallery, a wall of named client reviews, and a blog with practical cleaning tips for the region. For a company four years in, the whole presentation reads less like a brochure and more like a running log of the work.
