"Excellent. This was very short notice and Skilled Maids responded immediately. Doris and Maria make a great team -- skllled, focused, good communicators and upbeat all day long. There was more to do in a day than could possibly get done, but they quickly established priorities and accomplished much more than those. The house is clean and sparkling."

"We have been using Virginia Window Cleaners for 20 years and have had an exceptional experience each time. For the first 10 years, we had the same person clean the windows each year (he has since retired). They are an A+ business from start to finish - beginning with the pleasant and professional service when you call to schedule an appointment, to when the last window is cleaned. They are meticulous in keeping all areas around the windows clean, very thorough in their cleaning of the windows and window sills, will carefully remove and replace screens if needed, clean screens if needed, and always check in with you when the work has been completed. Something else to consider when hiring a company to clean your windows, is the level of trust of having someone in your home for the day or partial day. This company is 100% trustworthy! Can not endorse this company enough!

House Cleaning questions, answered by experts

No, vinegar does not disinfect hardwood floors safely. A vinegar and water solution can effectively clean many hard surfaces, but it is acidic enough to break down the finish on hardwood floors and damage the wood underneath. Over time this will dull the floors and reduce their shine. A damaged finish will also leave floors susceptible to moisture and other problems.

There are a few cost factors that determine the price of having your house cleaned, including:

  • Cost per square foot

  • Number of bedrooms

  • Number of bathrooms

  • Number of house cleaners

  • Frequency of cleaning

  • Location

To determine the cost of a cleaning service for your house, consult potential cleaning companies to get an estimate based on your home size and specifics.

Whether or not a cleaner brings supplies also depends on their preference. Some cleaning services require the homeowner to supply cleaning products and a few basic materials (sponges, paper towels, rags, a mop, and vacuum, for example), but others bring everything they need to get in, clean, and get out.

You can always ask whether or not they bring their cleaning supplies, and if so, make sure you’re comfortable with what they use. If you prefer organic or natural products, for example, you may need to supply them or pay a premium.

It depends on the surface you’re trying to clean. For example, a mixture of vinegar and water is a good option for a deep cleaning, including removing hard water stains from glass or stainless steel. However, vinegar is too acidic for granite and other types of natural stone, so it’s better to use a combination of baking soda and water on those surfaces.

The most effective toilet tank cleaners include commercial cleaning products, but for DIY purposes, white vinegar is best. Vinegar can help kill bacteria and remove mineral buildup from your toilet tank, but it won’t harm the necessary bacteria in your septic tank as some commercial products can. For the best clean, hire a professional to choose the most aggressive cleaning product that’s still safe for your septic tank, or use white vinegar and a scrub brush to do the cleaning yourself.
