When it comes to hiring a cleaning service, it’s important that you find a company that provides the services that you’re looking for. However, it can be difficult to properly vet a company before hiring them as your cleaning services in Schenectady, NY. At Powerhouse Cleaners, we know what it means to provide quality services so we’ve put together a short guide so you know what you should look for in a cleaning company.

Communication

Whether it’s romantic or professional, communication is an important part of every successful relationship. If you’re having someone clean your home or office, it’s important that you not only have a good working relationship, you need to communicate both ways as well. While it’s important to be able to communicate what you do and don’t want to be cleaned, it’s crucial that your cleaning crew be able to communicate their schedule, availability, issues that they noticed along the way, and areas that might need some extra attention. Furthermore, a cleaning company should have good lines of communication with you from the very start. If they don’t prioritize communication from the beginning, it probably won’t get any better as they continue working with you.

Reviews

A company’s ability to perform and online reviews are true signs of its reputation. Check Yelp, Google, and other online sources for previous customer reviews. It’s true that you can take some negative reviews with a grain of salt as angry customers are most likely to leave a review, a plethora of negative reviews are a major red flag. Conversely, a company that has a significant amount of positive reviews is a great sign. Between 5% and 10% of customers will typically leave reviews, so take it as a real positive if a customer took to the time to leave one that was good.

Variety

The cleaning company you hire shouldn’t be a one-trick pony. They should offer a variety of services to ensure that your home or office gets fully and completely clean. From washing windows to buffing and waxing floors to carpet cleaning and beyond, you should feel confident that you’re hiring a cleaning service that has your best interests and needs in mind. A clean home makes for a family that stays healthier and happier than if your home isn’t completely clean. Additionally, your office space will be a place of positive morale and increased productivity as it’s fully and completely cleaned by the company you hire to take care of your janitorial services.

Interview companies

After you’ve researched companies and read reviews, get to know the companies themselves. Don’t be afraid to speak with a representative from the company to get to know them and what they’re about. Have someone come to your house for a consultation so they can let you know what their crew will do to make sure your home is thoroughly cleaned. Likewise, bring someone into your office and have them look around so you can get an understanding of what exactly you’ll be paying for.
