Know What YOU Need and How Often You Need It
Not all cleaning companies are considered equal, and not every family’s needs are the same.
Figure out what will best serve you and your family, and be clear about your expectations during your search. Do you want a team of cleaning magicians or a solo cleaner? Would weekly cleanings provide the most value to your life, is a bi-weekly (every other week) or monthly (ever 4 weeks) schedule better for your lifestyle?
What frequency will work best to lower your stress and help keep you sane?
In our experience at Captivating Cleanliness, teams are more efficient but at times a solo cleaner is what's needed to ensure you're well taken care of. In most cases, weekly cleaning best suit those who have very busy lifestyles, four or more people living in the home and have pets. It will eliminate having to do any of the work yourself or fighting with your family about who will do it.
We’ve found that bi-weekly cleaning works great for families that have time to do some of the cleaning in between visits and may or may not have pets. Monthly cleaning is best for people who aren’t home much or have the time to clean the house between visits and are just looking for a break in having to do it all themselves every week.
At the end of the day, reliable cleaning consistency is key to getting the help you need.
Know Your Schedule
Are morning cleaning appointments better for you or would they be too hectic? Is an afternoon time slot out of the question, or does it work best? Do you work from home on Tuesday and Friday and know those days aren’t good cleaning days? Do you need a consistent routine in your cleaning visits, or are you flexible if the company needs to change the day of your visit but need advance notice if so?
Knowing a few days and time ranges that would work efficiently for you and your family is important. Every company sets up their schedule availability differently, so you’ll want to save yourself some time and ensure their schedule jives well with yours.
At Captivating Cleanliness, we offer set schedules but have flexibility for those that may need to adjust their schedule from time to time.
Simply knowing what schedule works best when researching companies can help save time and stress for everyone.
Know Your Budget
You should have an idea of what you can spend on house cleaning each month before calling around.
If you’re not the only decision maker in your home, get with your partner and figure out what will work and what won't work for your budget. That way you can save some of your time and be able to make a decision right away if you'd like to move forward with a walkthrough appointment or not.
When figuring out your budget, decide what your time is really worth to you. Take a look at what it costs YOU to do it yourself and what it would look like if you were no longer responsible for cleaning your home. What else could you do with that time and how will it benefit you and your family?
Hiring professionals to help you with your home cleaning is about more than having a clean home. It gives you hours of free time, removes the weight of stress off your shoulders giving you more energy and mind clarity to focus on other important things you can't delegate out...overall it increases happiness on many levels with all members of the household, so it shouldn’t be taken lightly.
As mentioned before, not all companies are equal. When deciding your budget for your home cleaning consider if you would you be happy with a quick in and out type of cleaning experience, or a higher quality, more detailed cleaning where more time is spent in your home because they’re getting into all the nooks and crannies, top to bottom and taking care of more than just the general surfaces.
Does it matter to you if someone is insured or not? Is it important to you that they have certain systems in place to send reminders and other communications, or to make sure someone is always available to be there when a cleaner gets sick or goes on vacation
Captivating Cleanliness focuses on high quality service, consistency, and making your life easier in a variety of ways. We are insured and have proper systems in place to make your experience worry-free and seamless when it comes to your home cleaning.
Finding a company right away who is licensed and insured and also has company systems in place for employees and clients may initially cost more, but will save you time, money and stress in the long run.
Know Who You’re Hiring
It seems obvious, but many homeowners skip this step inadvertently because they are more concerned with price over people.
Before they come to clean, start with a phone call to have the opportunity to get to know the company better and so they can get to know you and understand what you are looking for in your home cleaning experience. That way you know pretty quickly if you'd like to move forward or not.
Take time to make sure they can in fact add value to your life and are on the same page when in comes to your core values and service expectations.
This will help you get a better idea of their company culture and procedures to see if they align with your core values and lifestyle and if they're the best fit for you...making it an overall better experience over the long run.
Our company focuses on communication and building relationships with our clients. We like to have a quick phone call where we can ask and answer a few questions first to better understand what's important to you, and if we feel we could be a good fit for you. It's also where we can learn more about each other so we can really understand your needs and how we can add value to your life.
We understand what it’s like to invite people into your home, and your safety and peace of mind is important to us. We have an extensive interview process and training program to make sure we hire amazing people that match a specific set of core values to ensure that you feel awesome about everyone who comes to clean.
Know Which Questions to Ask
Knowing which questions to ask is half the battle when deciding which cleaning company best fits your needs and can save you tons of time and headache, especially if hiring a cleaning company is brand new to you.
Here are some questions to consider asking your prospective cleaning companies to help you decide if they’re the right fit for YOU from the start!
Are you pet friendly? What do I do with my pets when the team is here? How will you get in the house? Is it always the same cleaners? Should I be home? What do I need to do before you come? Do you provide supplies? Do you use non-toxic cleaning products? Do you have proof of insurance? How will I know when you’re coming to clean? What if I have to reschedule or cancel an appointment? How and when do I pay you? How can I communicate with the team? What if something breaks?
It's good to know the answers to questions like these, and any other questions you may have from the start to ensure you're not wasting your time setting up another appointment with someone who is not going to truly free up your time, add peace of mind and happiness to your life, or in general, make things easier for you.
Having these five success tips figured out before you start calling cleaning companies will help you avoid wasting your time and energy AND give you peace of mind.
