When choosing a cleaning company, be sure to do your homework first, so you don’t regret it later.  Here are the top 5 questions to ask BEFORE you hire a cleaning company.

1.  How long have you been in business?

You are best to choose a company that has been around for a few years. That will give you some reassurance that they must do good work, otherwise they would not have lasted in the business. You should also check to see if they are listed in the Better Business Bureau (BBB).

2.  Can you show me some customer testimonies?

Reading customer testimonies lets you know how their customers like their work. A good cleaning company should have testimonies from customers, saying what a great job they did.

3.  Are your products environmentally friendly?

You need to ask about their environmental impact. Many chemicals are are harmful to the environment – not just the outside natural world but the fumes or residues could be harmful to you and your family.

4.  Are you products pet friendly?

If you own any pets, then you need to make sure that the chemicals will not leave residues that maybe harmful to your pets. Dogs, cats and other small animals like to roll around on carpets and furniture, while just the fumes of some products are toxic and lethal to pet birds. You owe it to your pets to be sure they are thought of.

5.  Do I need to do prep my home for cleaning?

Some cleaning companies charge by the hour, while others will charge per the job.  Before you hire the cleaning company of your choice and depending on the type of cleaning you want done, be sure to ask if you need to do any prep work (like tidy up), otherwise, you may be charged for their time to do so.
