Consider for a moment the elevated luxury of coming home from vacation to a clean and organized space. We experience the scrambled trip preparation with laundry and other logistics, often not leaving time or energy for tidying up. What if your home greeted you with the same detailed attention as your resort? You arrive back at your home or office and everything is in its place, fresh and clean and ready for you to resume your regular activities. Debby’s Complete Services gives you this peace of mind.

Their work shines brightly, offering a personal touch, meticulous detail, and a commitment to customer satisfaction. For Debby Gowen, the owner and heart behind the business, cleaning with care is a calling. Her clients become neighbors and friends. She treats their homes with the same care she would her own. Debby is personally involved in every cleaning job, ensuring her high standards are met. “I take pride in knowing the work is done right. My clients can see that I genuinely care about their homes.” 

Debby’s Cleaning Services is known for going beyond the basics. Her team picks up each object, dusting the item and the surface beneath it. She customizes her services to meet each homeowner’s needs, from cleaning products to organization. She takes the time to understand any past issues clients have had with other cleaners, ensuring her service stands apart.

Her deep cleaning service is a standout offering, perfect for new clients or those looking for a seasonal refresh. This service includes washing baseboards, cleaning cabinets with Murphy’s Oil or vinegar, dusting blinds, and ensuring every surface is spotless. These are also great bonus services for that cleaning while you are away, returning to a fresh, like-new feeling. For clients with specific needs, Debby offers specialized services such as post-remodeling cleaning, move-in or move-out cleaning, and even upholstery and carpet cleaning. Equipped with a professional-grade carpet cleaning machine, she can tackle even the toughest stains.

Beyond her standard services, Debby offers grout cleaning and sealing, protecting surfaces from moisture and staining—an essential service for families with young children or homes with high foot traffic. Clients who combine multiple services receive special discounts, a popular option for realtors preparing homes for sale. Debby’s is fully insured and bonded, providing clients with peace of mind knowing their homes are in trustworthy hands. Clients are never charged upfront; payment is due only after they are fully satisfied with the cleaning.

Raised in McKinney, Debby has lived in the area for decades, and her business has grown through word-of-mouth and glowing recommendations on platforms like Nextdoor, where she has been voted a neighborhood favorite for four consecutive years. Reviews from clients are consistent: “Debby is professional and responsive in her communication. She and her assistant did an excellent, thorough deep clean of my house at a reasonable price, and she’s very pleasant to work with. Highly recommended.” 

Understanding that every client’s needs are different, Debby offers a range of cleaning schedules, including weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly options. Her clients appreciate the ability to customize their cleaning plans, whether they need a regular touch-up or a deep clean for a special occasion. Debby also works around her clients’ schedules, accommodating those who work from home and even handling last-minute requests from realtors.

Debby and her team also clean businesses and churches, providing full service at home and work. Clients might start with home service, and then expand to contracting office cleaning also, or the reverse. Debby’s Complete Services is more than just a cleaning company—it’s a trusted partner in maintaining a clean, welcoming home or business.
