Everybody seems to be busier these days. The pace of life has increased up to a new height. Consequently people are willing to pay for services such as House Cleaners Atlanta to carry out everyday mundane chores.
However, it can be very risky letting a stranger into your home. Will you be able to trust them? Would they break your precious ornaments? What about your expensive jewelry, is it safe?
Below I have identified ten things to look for when searching for a house cleaner.
1. Many House Cleaning Services Atlanta advertise the fact that they are police vetted. You need to see proof of this. You also need to see references. I would even check up on these too - they could be false.
2. You need peace of mind that if they do accidentally break one of your expensive ornaments, that they are insured to cover the cost. Check that they are covered for accidental damage.
3. Your cleaner should have a friendly approach, but not too friendly. You often hear of cleaners spending most of their hourly rate drinking tea and talking. They should be friendly, but also professional and get on with their job.
4. It might be worth paying a slightly higher rate. You can then demand an exceptional service. If you choose cheap, then you may just get shoddy work.
5. Why not start your research online with cleaning rates. Most cleaning services have a website. Request a price list for their services. This way, you are still anonymous and therefore won't be 'lulled' into going with them.
6. A good house cleaner really should be as flexible as possible. You might want a weekly clean, a clean once every two-weeks or just a one-off blitz every 3 months. Find someone who can fit in with 'your' plans.
7. Be aware that it is the norm to be charged a higher rate for your first clean.
8. Make sure that you compile a house cleaning checklist. Your cleaner should work to this checklist for every clean. You might want different things done each time he/she comes, so working to a checklist ensures that you get everything done.
9. For bigger jobs such as post moving, garage cleaning or construction clean-up, use a specialized cleaning service in those areas.
10. Are you happy supplying the cleaning products or do you want your cleaners to bring and use their own? (which will be included in the price).
There you have it, my top house cleaning tips helping you to find the best House Cleaners Atlanta in your area. You might have to take one or two on a trial in order to find a house cleaner that suits you.
Just be aware that in some of the house cleaners' advertising, they practically all claim to be exceptional and have unique cleaning methods to clean your home more thoroughly and quicker.
Don't pay extra for these claims. All professional cleaners will have their own house cleaning techniques. If they work hard and follow a systematic approach to cleaning, then that is all that is necessary to clean your home to a high standard.

ReplyDeleteAlso, has anyone tried caldrea? Is it worth it?
Hi. I'm not sure where you're seeing that Tide Stain Release is $3.99. I have a copy of the flier for next week and it says it's $5.88 plus get $1 UP reward. So with the $3 coupon plus the UP reward it would cost $1.88. Still a great price for that product but not free.cleaning products
ReplyDeletecan i use the tide $3 coupon if it says: "Please select one of the following coupon offers from the dropdown below: $1 off any size or $3 off medium or large size (18- to 64-count duo pack, 36- to 68-oz liquid or 26- to 50-oz powder)"

ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips :) It is actually really difficult to find a good cleaner even in a small Wimbledon cleaners I finally fount the right one.
ReplyDeleteI admit that finding a reliable cleaning company is a hard task to do. But if you are patient you will find the best one. I found my Islington cleaning company and these guys are doing great.
