"Bella custom cleaning came to our home where a ceramic tile floor of about 440sqfeet needed cleaning and sealing. They arrived early and we looked at the floor together. We were told that some of the areas would not come clean as new due to how long it had been since the floor had been laid down(about 30 yrs) We understood this issue. The guys worked hard and when the floor had been cleaned and sealed it looked very clean almost like new. We were very pleased. Their work exceeded our expectations. We would use this company's services again"

"Bubbles Window Cleaning did a remarkable job on our windows. We recently had the house washed and the residue left by the cleaning solution left our windows looking horrible. Bubbles (specifically Alberto) were able to clean the windows to a sparkling finish. I would highly recommend Bubble Window Washing to anyone. I am more than pleased with their services."

"Their service was excellent. One thing i found in cleaning service is that they don't listen. Express Maid listened and did exactly what i told them to do and they clean the way they suppose to clean, they moved thing around, swept under things, they were very thorough and the cleaning was exceptional."

House Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

To hire a professional house cleaner, start by searching for local services online and asking friends or colleagues for recommendations. Review company websites, social media accounts, and online customer reviews to understand their business and reputation. Contact prospective cleaners to ask about their services and charges. It's also a good idea to meet with them in your home so they can see the scope of the job, allowing you to discuss expectations and negotiate a price. Always do thorough research before choosing a cleaning service to ensure it’s the right fit for you.

You should consider doing a few things on your own that fall under the category of “good house cleaner etiquette” to prepare for your house cleaner. These include tidying counters, floors, and other surfaces, taking care of the dishes, moving laundry to the laundry room or a dedicated laundry basket, and putting away personal and private items. Think of your house cleaner as someone who brings your home from relatively tidy to organized and clean, and you should have no issues.

Coca-Cola isn’t a very effective method for cleaning toilet bowl stains on its own. The idea is that since it contains carbonic, citric, and phosphoric acids, it can wipe out your hard water stains after sitting for a few hours. While it can work on lighter stains if you heat it, let it sit overnight, and scrub your toilet, it’s unlikely to make a noticeable difference on stubborn stains.

Most people perform the bulk of their household cleaning tasks once a week. Since a whole-home, top-to-bottom weekly cleaning can take up a significant chunk of time, break weekly tasks up by day so you don’t have to lose your whole weekend to cleaning and maintaining your house. Many people also find the cost of a house cleaner to be worth it to help keep their home clean if it’s hard to find the time themselves.

A baking soda paste made with about one part baking soda to one part water works magic on most baked-on stains. Scrub the paste into the grease, then let it sit for about 15 minutes. Then, wipe the area clean with a microfiber cloth. Repeat as needed for the most stubborn stains.
