Homes held for occasional use, snow and frozen pipes

Big Bear Lake is mostly a second-home town. About 73 percent of its 9,722 housing units are vacant because they are held for seasonal, recreational or occasional use, and the city’s housing element says only about 1 percent of vacant units are offered for rent. Nearly 85 percent of units are detached houses, and the median home dates from 1976. A cabin that stands empty between visits can hold stale odors in its carpet and upholstery, so a cleaning before the next stay is a sensible thing to ask about.

Winter is the other force. The Big Bear Lake weather station, at about 6,750 feet, averages 62.6 inches of snow a year and a January low near 20 degrees. The housing element says harsh winters damage building systems such as plumbing when water lines freeze, and the city has adopted a 100-pound roof load criterion because snow builds up on roofs. Snow melt and tracked-in grit reach entry carpet fast, and a frozen line that lets go inside a cabin is a water extraction call.

The city’s Department of Water and Power draws the Big Bear system’s water from wells, and its 2024 report puts average hardness at 256 milligrams per liter, with readings from 75 to 410. The State Fire Marshal designates Big Bear Lake a High Fire Hazard Area, and in September 2024 the county sheriff issued an evacuation warning for the whole valley during the Line Fire. After any smoke, sofas, drapes and rugs are where the smell stays.

  2. A median home from 1976

    About 60 percent of units predate 1980 and 21 percent predate 1960. Tell the office which rooms are carpeted and how old the carpet is.

  3. About a third of occupied homes rented

    35.1 percent of the 2,308 occupied homes are renter-occupied, and 64.9 percent are owner-occupied. Leases differ on who arranges a move-out cleaning, so settle that first.

Cabin care, from entry mats to burst pipes

Upholstery cleaning and carpet cleaning cover the sofas and bedroom floors of a house that fills up and empties out. Water extraction is the one to know about before the first hard freeze. Where fire season smoke has reached the house, drapery cleaning is worth asking about too.

  • Allison C.

    I particularly liked the way the lead cleaner described the PH balance of the solutions that they were using on our carpets. The acidic neutralizing rinse makes sure the floor doesn’t feel crunchy or sticky when it is dry. That extra step means our floors are very silky and totally residue-free.

  • Crystal M.

    My kids have turned the giant living room ottoman into a trampoline and it's forever soiled with imprints. Steam cleaning the hefty cloth removed all the dark grime and restored the original bright blue hue. The furniture which is the focus is clean and the living space appears a lot tidier today.

  • Daniel R.

    Thick outdoor seats were covered in tree algae and bird poop. Power-washings of the tough material killed any dirt from outside. We are pleased to be hosting barbecues from our clean chairs again.

Questions from Big Bear Lake

Do you clean cabins and second homes?
Yes. About 73 percent of Big Bear Lake’s housing units are held for seasonal or occasional use, and any of them can be booked by phone or form. Say who will let the technician in and whether the heat and water are on.
A pipe froze and burst inside. What should I do?
Stop the water if you can do it safely, then call (844) 966-2005. The office answers at any hour, and water extraction is one of the services. The housing element notes that freezing lines damage plumbing here, so tell the office how long the water has been down.
How hard is the water in Big Bear Lake?
The city’s Department of Water and Power reports average hardness of 256 milligrams per liter in its Big Bear system, about 15 grains per gallon, with readings from 75 to 410. Hard water mostly shows as spots on tile, glass and fixtures.
Is smoke from a wildfire a reason to clean my ducts?
Sooty registers and a smell that will not clear are better reasons than the calendar. The EPA does not recommend routine duct cleaning, and the city is a High Fire Hazard Area, so ask the office about the whole picture: ducts, carpet and fabric.
