When it comes to cleaning, you\u2019ve come realize that you just can\u2019t do it all.\u00a0 Whether you don\u2019t have enough time to complete the job, aren\u2019t good at it, or would rather spend your free time doing ANYTHING but cleaning, you know you need to bring in a professional.<\/p>\n
Chances are you\u2019ve already done your research and gotten recommendations from friends, neighbors or even gone on NextDoor.\u00a0 The biggest question many homeowners ask themselves is, \u201cDo I hire a cleaning company, or should I go with an independent maid?\u201d\u00a0 There are several factors you should consider when making this decision.<\/p>\n
Do you have a budget in mind? The cost will often vary depending on how frequently you will have your home cleaned. While many independent cleaners are often less expensive than a traditional company, there are many reasons for that, which may come at a \u201ccost\u201d to you. Independent cleaners can often charge less because they may forgo insurance, licensing requirements, and may use the homeowners cleaning products and equipment, rather than supplying their own.<\/p>\n
Most cleaning companies, like Home Clean Heroes, are licensed, bonded and insured. This means you aren\u2019t financially responsible if something gets broken, or worse, a cleaner gets injured while in your home. If you opt to go the route with an independent cleaner, and that person is injured while cleaning your home, you or your homeowner\u2019s insurance will likely be liable because the independent won\u2019t have a company handling their general liability insurance or workman\u2019s compensation. Is that a risk you are willing to take?<\/p>\n
At Home Clean Heroes, we run background checks on every cleaner before they ever step foot in a customer\u2019s home. We feel it\u2019s important to know that the people coming into your home can be trusted. With your own \u201ccleaning lady\u201d or \u201cmaid,\u201d you won\u2019t really know that information, unless you run your own background check, which comes with a price tag.<\/p>\n
Another benefit of working with a cleaning company is that because there are often several teams, there is availability to move to another day if you have a conflict or are sick and need to reschedule. On the flip side, if your \u201ccleaning lady\u201d has a sick child or is sick themselves on your scheduled cleaning day, you likely will be out of luck in getting your home cleaned. With a professional cleaning company like Home Clean Heroes, if one of the grime-fighters needs to miss a day of work, the scheduled cleans rarely will need to be rescheduled as we are able to send another team to ensure the customer\u2019s regular clean is not missed.<\/p>\n
Home Clean Heroes puts all new employees through a seven-part video training series. After that, they go to a home for thorough, on-the-job training with a team, where they learn not only the best way to clean, but also the science behind an effective clean. This means that standards are upheld and there is a consistent clean every time. Do you know what kind of training the independent cleaning person has gone through?\u00a0 Often times, their training consists of how they clean their own home.<\/p>\n

While there are pros and cons to both scenarios, ultimately you will have to decide what is best for you and your family. Home Clean Heroes is an award-winning company and our team will be happy to schedule a free in-home estimate so we can better learn your needs. We look forward to working with you soon!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
