What Services To Offer If You Are a Domestic Cleaner
Before taking on a cleaning job as a cleaning contractor you have to think about what you can offer to your clients. You do not want to sit with a mop and wait until someone passes you by and asks you to clean their floor in the hall. If people do not know what you can do they would hardly ask you to do anything. Make a list of things you would able be to do as a cleaning professional and turn it into your cleaner’s portfolio.
You can offer all of them at once or allow your clients to pick the ones they need.
•
•
Kitchen and bathroom. Sanitizing the countertops, sink and microwave, polishing all appliances, taking the bin out and replacing towels could be offered for the kitchen. The bathroom cleaning might include scrubbing and sanitizing all counters, sink, tub, handles and toilet as well as emptying trash and replacing towels.
Dusting and flooring. Dust should be removed from everywhere – fans, lamps, air vents, picture frames, decor and furniture. Floor cleaning means hoovering all carpets and mopping the tiles.
•
Basic house cleaning and deep home cleaning . Two previously listed services are added to the latter two ones. In the basic house clean you will only change linens and do some mopping, while with the deep clean service you can offer to clean the door frames and doors, wash windows, and clean all kitchen appliances. An entire house deep clean is suggested to be done once a month, while the basic one can be offered to be ordered more often.
•
Changing of the season clean. This service is expected to be done once a year and is usually offered in spring. It includes all of the above listed jobs plus cleaning behind the appliances
in the kitchen, dusting up inside the couches and moving furniture to reach the less visible areas.
•
Garage or shed clean. This type of service mainly includes sorting of what has been dumped in the clutter. This service might be required by big families or busy households that cannot manage to keep their storage places in order.
•
Customized cleaning. Be flexible in your offers and let your clients customize the services they wish to order from you. Be ready to do kitchen and bathroom cleaning weekly and come twice a month for the entire house clean.
•
Laundry service. This option is valued by many customers. Even people who keep their properties clean simply might not have time for laundry. Washing and ironing takes a lot of time and some customers simply do not want to waste their weekends on these jobs. This service requires less time, but can be ordered up to two times per week.
• Sometimes you might be asked about the dishes. Big outdoor events or family barbeques might need someone who will do the dishes. Be prepared to take a couple of bags with cleaning tools and products and take on a trip to the next festival, where you will be expected to wash all the dishes.
With such a list of variable services on offer you will not be hidden among the classified adverts on the cleaning business notice board. A truly professional domestic cleaner must be ready for any challenge. The wider your list of services is, the more customers can get from you.
