Factors to Consider When Looking For for a Cleaning Service

When you employ a contractor to clean your property, you’re planning to let them inside your most personal spaces. That calls for a good amount of assurance and trust that you are contracting a five-star, ethical cleaning service. Homeowners and renters may play their part by coming up with the proper questions and engaging in research before signing a contract with a housekeeping company.

Read Customer Feedback and Seek Recommendations

Read through customer reviews on HomeAdvisor. Once you’ve done that and narrowed down the list, take the time to look at customer reviews on other sites. You can also seek advice from social media or from friends and family. Once you reach out to a prospective cleaning business, ask about feedback so you can talk personally with past or current clients. This information assists you in getting a better feel for the business’s customer service and quality of work.

Double Check for Complaints That Have Not Been Resolved

Read the BBB webpage or the company’s Facebook feed to find any complaints that haven’t been resolved. These are consumer issues that the service has left unaddressed. Although one issue isn’t automatically cause for alarm, a noticeable pattern of similar issues without business input can be a bad sign.

Learn More on the House Cleaning Company’s Website

Read through FAQs on the house cleaning business’s website to learn how it contracts staff, what processes and chemicals it utilizes, and whether or not it offers the kind of cleaning services you need. Search for cleaning companies that perform background checks on staff and take other measures to keep customers and their homes safe. You may also want to call and question about chemicals if you have young children, pets, or immunocompromised individuals in your home.

Digging into the details helps you contract a cleaning company in Tacoma that will live up to your standards.

What Do Cleaning Companies Do?

Housekeeping businesses offer many kinds of services. You can find a housekeeping company to give your space a deep seasonal cleaning or sign up with a service to tackle everyday cleaning requirements. Choosing the right cleaning business requires choosing what type of home cleaning services you need.

A typical choice for many homeowners looking for help with cleaning is everyday housekeeping. A cleaning company sends cleaners out once a week, several times each week, or every day, based on your preferences. These housekeepers provide services such as dusting, cleaning floors, wiping down surfaces, spot cleaning walls, and cleaning and sanitizing bathrooms.

One option many homeowners choose is a one-off deep cleaning. In lieu of contracting a house cleaning business for ongoing services, you might choose to pay a single fee for comprehensive cleaning that addresses your whole home. Homeowners can choose this service to get their home ready to be put on the market or to ensure they can show off a pristine home before a family get-together.

Discuss your home cleaning preferences with a potential housekeeping professional to find out what it can offer. Some businesses differentiate themselves by providing options for cleaning house exteriors, or cleaning pools. Homeowners might also find a business willing to do laundry or run errands.

  • Keeping your home clean is a task that never seems to end, and it can take up most of your free time. Instead of spending your weekends mopping and dusting, consider hiring a housekeeper or cleaning service.
  • Unless a housekeeper performs specific duties regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency or your state or local government, no specific licensing is usually required to become a housekeeper. However, you’ll want to work with a professional who can pass a background check and has a current business license, liability insurance and a surety bond. You’ll also want to select someone who has the experience and can provide references, or someone who has received some professional training from a cleaning company.
  • Keep in mind when hiring any type of professional to clean your home that each state has its own requirements for licensing. You can use Home Advisor’s Contractor Licensing Requirements State-By-State guide to learn more. You can also learn more about the extensive screening process we use when allowing businesses to join our network.

When you hire a housekeeper or cleaning service, there are some questions you’ll need to ask to ensure you’re hiring the right person for the job. Writing down a list of services you want to be completed is a great place to start. This way, you’ll have all the information you need when you do interview a housekeeper or cleaning service, and they can provide you with accurate information and cost estimates.

What Services Do You Offer?

Find out upfront if the housekeeper or cleaning company offers the services you need, especially if you have requests that go beyond basic services.

How Do You Come Up With Your Rates?

Do they charge a flat fee each week? Do they charge an hourly rate? Some companies charge based on your home’s square footage or the number of bedrooms you have.

Do You Provide Your Own Supplies?

Many companies may provide some smaller cleaning supplies, but they may need to use your vacuum cleaner or mop. Others bring their own or none at all. And if you’re particular about the types of chemicals used in your home, you may want to ask what products they use or if they’re willing to use what you provide.

What Happens if Something Goes Wrong?

Anytime you have a professional in your home, something could go wrong. They could get hurt, or some of your property may be damaged. Ask what would happen in these scenarios — a well-qualified professional will have the necessary insurance and bonding to cover these situations.
