The Benefits of Hiring a Professional Residential Cleaning Service
Should you hire a professional residential cleaning service?
Homes are a place to relax, connect with family, and be yourself. These are all things each and every one of us needs after a long day. Imagine this: you come home from your job. Your back hurts. Your eyes are tired. Your brain is wandering. You barely have enough energy to whip something together to eat before you hit the hay.
Then… BAM!
All the little chores that stacked up throughout the week hit you like a freight train. Choo Choo Choo! It’s cleaning time.
And how could you not clean? The dust bunnies sitting on top of the ceiling fan and around the lights and vents stare down at you from their judgemental perch. You walk further into your home. The stains on the countertop catch your eye. They almost seem to form a frowny face. You look at your fridge. Fingerprints dot the surface like footprints on a treasure map leading to grease and grime. You gather up some courage and decide that you can get away with a microwave meal tonight. Not. You open up the microwave and there is dried food slime on the plate and the interior walls.
Yuck.
And who could blame anyone for thinking that?
A cluttered space causes a cluttered mind, and a dirty space does the same. Luckily for us all, a professional residential cleaning service can help maintain the cleanliness of your home through proven processes and regularly scheduled cleanings that fit your schedule. Below, you’ll learn about a few of the benefits professional residential cleaning services have and how they can help you.
1. The Cleaners Are the Professionals
Cleaners you hire to clean your home are trained professionals. That means they know the best way to tackle large cleaning tasks with efficiency and accuracy.
Did you know: One professional cleaner can clean an average of 750sqft an hour. One Square Foot Services cleaner can clean a 3,000sqft home in around 3-4 hours!
Most professional cleaning companies achieve a high level of efficiency and accuracy by utilizing standard cleaning procedures. At Square Foot Services, we embrace a top down approach to cleaning. This means that each space in your home is cleaned starting from the top and ending at the bottom. Why do we do this?
Starting the cleaning process at the ceiling enables us to knock loose any dirt and debris down to the floor and lower levels of your home. As we work our way down, dusting items on walls, shelving, mirrors, dressers, and other surfaces, all the debris congregates onto the floor where our cleaners use their brooms and vacuums to collect everything. At the same time, the commercial grade HEPA filters purify the air of your home.
2. Professional Cleaners Make Your Home Healthier
Professional cleaners use professional chemicals to eliminate bacteria that could cause illness especially if there are newborns, young children, seniors, or immunocompromised people living inside your home.
Areas such as kitchens and bathrooms may look clean after a light touch-up, but they are often breeding grounds for invisible germs. Your professional cleaners are trained to remove these germs from your home effectively.
Did you know: Most chemical cleaners require a wait time before wiping to remove germs?
At Square Foot Services, our professional cleaners begin first by removing debris from surfaces where bacteria grow. Next, our cleaners spray chemicals onto the surface and allow them to sit for the recommended time before cleaning them. By doing this, we are able to ensure that we remove the majority of germs from the surfaces inside your home leaving your household happier and healthier.
3. Professional Cleaners Save You Time
Professional cleaners clean. That’s their job, and they’re happy to do it! They can provide service on your terms that help you regain the hours you would lose to cleaning. Like we mentioned earlier, a professional cleaner is capable of cleaning a 3,000sqft home in around 3-4 hours. Think of all the things you could do with that time.
Nobody wants to go run errands after spending so long cleaning their home. Taking the kids to activities and events after a good bathroom scrub is out of the question. And going to the gym after lugging that vacuum cleaner around the house is a no go.
Did you know: You could save upwards of 8 hours per week by hiring a professional cleaning company, depending on the size of your home?
Many homeowners can benefit from having their home cleaned on a recurring basis. For example, having your home cleaned consistently every two weeks is often enough to maintain a high level of cleanliness and reap the time-saving benefits professional cleaners offer.
4. Professional Cleaners Protect Your Surfaces
Dirt and grime buildup can stain, scratch, and warp the surfaces inside your home. Oils that sit too long on countertops can discolor them. The accidental spillage of food onto white wooden countertops can cause staining if not cleaned properly. Small particles of dirt can scratch beautiful flooring, leaving it unrecognizable.
Did you know: Carpet cleaning can more than double the lifespan of your carpet by removing particles that destroy the fibers?
Square Foot Services employ multiple cleaning agents as well as neutral-ph floor cleaners to clean all grime off your surfaces and extend the lifespan of your surfaces, which ultimately saves you from larger bills further down the line.
The benefits of having your home professionally cleaned are numerous and hard to beat. From improved health for your whole family to protecting surfaces from disfigurement, professional cleaning offers benefits that enhance your life.
