Even if you are quite adept at completing your household chores, there may be instances where you are unable to keep up with your workload. Travel, illness, or hosting large events in your home may require a little help. A professional house cleaning service will help to whip your home back into shape while you handle more pressing concerns. Before you contract a cleaning service, however, you should take the time to do your research and ensure they have the qualities you need.

5 Qualities to Look for in a Cleaning Service

1. Professionalism

The cleaning service and its employees should maintain a certain sense of professionalism and decorum. While not every service requires their employees to wear a uniform, their appearance should be neat and clean, and they should carry some form of identification linking them to the service. Additionally, the employees should show respect for you, your family, and your home.

2. Equipment

When scheduling service, call the company to verify that they will provide cleaning equipment. This equipment should include any sponges, mops, brooms, detergent, and vacuum cleaners which might be needed. If you would prefer that the employees use the supplies you have at home, express this during the phone call to prevent any conflicts on the day of service.

3. References

Take the time to search online forums and websites for reviews and references from previous clients. Specifically, look for reviews from clients whose needs were similar to your own. Check for feedback regarding employee attitudes, turn-around time, and the effectiveness of the job.

4. Attention to Detail

A cleaning service whose employees know to clean under furniture, in corners, and between shelves can help your home to look—and feel—cleaner. If this attention to detail is absent, you may want to consider using a different service in the future.

5. Cost

Although using a maid service can feel like a bit of a luxury, it should not break the bank. Call the company in advance to discuss exact services and pricing. Discuss which service is best for your home while staying within your budget.
