What started as a single-oven, one-van, two-bucket operation in Somerville is now New England's most-loved independent cleaning company. Our founder, Maria Delgado, built Clay & Calm on a simple belief: every family deserves to come home to a place that feels like a hug.
Fifteen years later, we've grown to a team of 42 trained professionals, but we've kept that same founder-led attention to detail. We clean with your life in mind — working around your schedule, using products that are safe for kids and pets, and leaving a little sachet of dried lavender on every counter when we go.
"We don't just clean floors. We clean the scene of a toddler's first birthday party, the kitchen after a Sunday dinner that went late, the office corner where somebody finally finished their thesis. Every home tells a story — we just help keep the pages turning."
