Looking after the lakeside houses of Genthod
Genthod is small, quiet and almost entirely residential: a handful of lanes off Route de Genthod, the old core, and the lakeside plots of Le Creux-de-Genthod where historic maisons de maître sit behind gates and mature hedges. Inside, the materials are rarely standard — oiled or varnished period parquet, marble halls, natural stone terraces, tall glazing and winter gardens that face the water and show every mark.
We look after these properties the way a good conciergerie (property caretaking service) does: the same trained team every visit, a written scope, and cleaning products chosen for the surface rather than for speed. Whether you want fortnightly maintenance while the family is in residence, a seasonal opening and closing clean, or a full deep clean before a handover, the work is planned around your calendar and your household staff.
Why owners in Genthod work with us
Discretion in writing
A fixed, vetted team with public liability cover and a signed confidentiality undertaking. No photographs, no subcontracting, no changing faces.
Delicate surfaces done properly
Oiled parquet refreshed with a dosed, barely damp mop and a soap made for oiled wood; varnished floors kept pH-neutral. Marble and natural stone never see an acidic descaler.
Works while you are away
Keys held through your régie (managing agent) or intendant, agreed access windows, and a preparation visit timed to your return so the house is aired, dust-free and ready.
Coordinated with your other trades
We fit around the gardener, the pool maintenance company and the alarm provider, and we log what we find — a leaking seal, a stained stone, a dripping tap — instead of leaving it for you to discover.
Glazing and lake-facing volumes
Tall bay windows, winter gardens and glass balustrades cleaned streak-free, including the frames and runners that collect lake dust and pollen.

How the service works
- 01
Site visit and fixed quote
We walk the house, note every floor finish and stone type, agree the access route and confirm a firm price. Travel to Genthod is included.
- 02
Written scope and access protocol
Frequency, priority rooms, no-go areas and product list are agreed in writing. Keys, alarm codes and gate access are documented with you, your intendant or your régie (managing agent).
- 03
The same team, every visit
One vehicle, parked where you tell us — access lanes off Route de Genthod are narrow and parking is scarce, so we plan it in advance rather than on the day.
- 04
Cleaning by surface, not by routine
Each material gets its own method and dilution. Delicate work — stone, silver, fireplaces — is done by the team member trained for it.
- 05
Check, report and lock-up
Room-by-room verification, immediate corrections, alarm re-armed and keys returned to the agreed holder. Anything worth knowing goes into a short report.

Custom quote — why there is no fixed rate — Villa Cleaning in Genthod
For a villa, the price depends less on square metres than on the number of technical areas and the materials involved. A 250 m² villa with four bathrooms, marble floors and a conservatory takes longer than a 350 m² villa with uniform flooring. We quote after seeing the property, and the price then stays fixed.
What determines the price
- Living area and number of floors
- Number of bathrooms and kitchens — the most time-consuming areas
- Floor types: oiled parquet, marble, natural stone, polished concrete (dedicated products and methods)
- Glazed area, height of windows, conservatories and railings
- Whether outdoor areas are included: terrace, poolside, pool house, garage
- Frequency: one-off clean, seasonal deep clean or regular maintenance
- Delicate surfaces and specific equipment (home automation, fireplace, wine cellar)

Frequently asked questions — Villa Cleaning in Genthod
Can you look after the house while we are abroad?
Yes, and it is a large part of what we do in Genthod. We work from keys held by you, your intendant or your régie (managing agent), follow an agreed access window, air the rooms, run taps to keep traps from drying out and flag anything unusual. Before you return we schedule a preparation visit so the house is dust-free, the glazing is clean and the terraces are ready.
How do you handle discretion and confidentiality?
The team is fixed, vetted and covered by public liability insurance, and every member signs a confidentiality undertaking. We do not photograph interiors unless you ask for a report with photos, we do not subcontract, and we do not discuss clients or addresses. For lakeside properties with valuables and art, that is the baseline, not an extra.
Our parquet is very old — what do you actually use on it?
First we identify the finish. Oiled parquet is cleaned with a soap formulated for oiled wood and a barely damp, well-wrung mop, then re-oiled locally where the wood has gone dry. Varnished or vitrified parquet gets a pH-neutral cleaner and the same controlled moisture. No steam, no standing water, no all-purpose degreaser.
Is marble safe with your products?
Yes. Marble, travertine and other calcareous stone are cleaned with pH-neutral products only. Acidic descalers, vinegar and standard limescale removers etch these surfaces permanently, so they never come into the house. In bathrooms with stone we descale the glass and fittings separately and protect the stone while we work.
Do you clean the pool surround, the pontoon and the winter garden?
Yes, for the accessible parts. Pool surrounds, pontoon decking, terraces and winter gardens are included in the scope we agree, with methods chosen for the material — soft wash on wood decking, no aggressive pressure on stone joints. We coordinate the timing with your pool maintenance company so we are not working over each other.
Can you work around our gardener and other providers?
Yes. We agree a calendar with you at the start and adjust it as the season changes, so garden waste, pool servicing and our interior work do not collide. We also match the commune's waste collection calendar and take sorted waste to the déchetterie (municipal recycling centre) when a deep clean produces more than the bins can hold.
Do you deal with the alarm and the technical rooms?
We work with your alarm system rather than around it: codes are documented at the start, the system is disarmed and re-armed by the team lead, and only the zones in scope are entered. Plant rooms, cellars and laundries are cleaned on the agreed cycle, and we report visible leaks or damp so your technician can act early.
Is travel to Genthod included in the price?
Yes. Travel is always included in the fixed quote, with no surcharge for the lakeside lanes or restricted access. The quote is confirmed after the site visit and does not move unless you change the scope.
Our villa cleaning service in Genthod
Genthod sits on the right bank between Bellevue and Versoix, with Route de Lausanne and the CFF line running behind the village and the lake in front of it. That geography shapes the work: lake-facing glazing picks up spray and pollen, terraces and pontoon decking green up quickly in the damp months, and the access lanes down towards Le Creux-de-Genthod are narrow with almost nowhere to leave a second vehicle. We arrive in one van, at the time agreed, and we do not block a neighbour's gate.
Many of the houses here are second homes or international family properties that stand empty for long stretches. We manage them remotely on your behalf: scheduled checks while the house is closed, a seasonal opening clean when the family returns and a closing clean when they leave, plus a preparation visit a day or two before arrival so beds, glazing and terraces are ready. Where a property is being handed over, sold or let, we prepare it for the état des lieux (handover inspection) and coordinate with the gardener and the pool maintenance company so the grounds and the pool surround are presentable on the same day.
