Proudly Serving University City

Top-Rated House Cleaning in University City, San Diego

Metla House Cleaning serving San Diego since 2022

You chose University City for the proximity to UCSD, the dining and shopping at Westfield UTC, and a neighborhood where biotech professionals and established families share tree-lined streets between two of San Diego's most scenic canyon systems. Spend your weekends hiking Rose Canyon or exploring the campus — not wiping construction dust and canyon pollen off every surface in your home. University City occupies a prime position in northern San Diego, bounded by the I-5 to the west, the 805 to the east, and the 52 to the north. The community centers around UCSD and Westfield UTC, with residential neighborhoods fanning out through Governor Park, South University City, and the Costa Verde corridor. UCSD researchers, biotech professionals from Sorrento Valley, and established families who have lived here since the 1970s make up the community. Housing spans a wide range — established ranch and split-level homes near Doyle Park and Standley Park, newer condos and apartments near Costa Verde and Nobel Drive, and student housing near campus. Rose Canyon and San Clemente Canyon funnel afternoon breezes carrying native pollen, chaparral dust, and seasonal debris directly into canyon-adjacent neighborhoods. Ongoing construction around UTC and Nobel Drive adds persistent urban construction dust. Metla serves all of University City from the UTC core through South University City, Governor Park, and the Costa Verde corridor. We bring the same professional standard to a campus studio and a five-bedroom canyon-view home.

The University City Cleaning Challenge: Canyon Pollen & Construction Dust

University City sits between two major canyon systems — Rose Canyon to the south and San Clemente Canyon to the north — and both funnel native plant pollen, chaparral dust, and seasonal debris directly into residential neighborhoods. During spring and early summer, blooming sage and buckwheat produce heavy pollen loads that show up as a fine yellowish film on surfaces inside and out. The ongoing construction around Westfield UTC and along the Nobel Drive corridor adds a second dust layer. Fine concrete and drywall particulates settle on homes blocks from active building sites. Santa Ana winds compound both problems, funneling through Rose Canyon from the east and pushing hot, dry air loaded with fine inland dust through the community. Our standard cleaning addresses canyon pollen and construction dust with professional-grade vacuums and thorough surface dusting on every visit. For established ranch homes near Doyle Park, we use pH-neutral products on original hardwood. For modern UTC condos, we use streak-free products on stainless steel and glass, and residue-free cleaners on engineered floors. For deeper issues — heavy pollen season buildup in HVAC vents, post-construction particulate cleanup, or full student housing turnovers at end of academic year — simply request this as a specialized add-on when booking and our team will come prepared.
