Weekly Cleanings
The majority of clients of a house cleaning service tend to choose weekly cleaning appointments to keep their home clean.
Every Other Week
Some households don’t need cleaning service too frequently, so they choose service every other week.
Once a Month
Even though you may have enough time to clean, you always need extra help. This is why you should have a cleaning service on speed dial.
Deep Cleanings
A home is for people, not for stuff, dust, and dirt. Every once in awhile, you need to take back your home from the encroaching junk. Every once in a while, you need a deep house cleaning.
A deep house cleaning is more than just wiping a few things down, making the bed, and vacuuming. It’s giving your home a top-to-bottom shine and feeling so much lighter and freer when you’re done. Unfortunately, that feeling of being truly clean comes only after some hard work. Check out our info-packed cleaning tips on how to make delivering that deep house cleaning a little easier.
