What are your unique needs?

* Do you have pets or people in your home with respiratory issues?
* Do you have a particular day or time you want the service to come?
Pros over Joes
Hiring a professional cleaning service is often beneficial over going with someone who works alone and runs their business out of their home. Hiring a professional service protects you if their workers happen to get hurt in your home. It also protects you if something gets broken or stolen. Additionally it removes the element of having to pay someone “under the table” and worrying about tax evasion, or being sued for unemployment if you let the person go. A professional cleaning service will hire, train and insure their employees, taking the guess work out of that process for you. They will also provide their own cleaning supplies, so you don’t have to worry about making sure you have enough wood polish to get the job done. Another nice thing about a professional cleaning service is that they have enough staff to be able to accommodate your cleaning schedule even if your house cleaner is sick or goes on vacation.
What to ask
When interviewing a Manhattan cleaning service, consider asking these questions before hiring them.
* How often can they come and clean?
* Are their employees insured?
* What happens if something is lost or broken in your home?
* How do they screen their employees, and what does the hiring process involve?
* How many people have access to your house key or security code?
* What happens if you’re dissatisfied with the way your home was cleaned?
* What type of cleaners do they use? Are they toxic or environmentally safe?
