Life can keep you busy either with a demanding job or a new baby in the family, and you might not always have time to keep up with chores around the house. Dust can settle on surfaces and clutter can pile up all over the place quickly becoming overwhelming. Being able to hire someone to take care of the cleaning while you focus on your family or career in and around Jacksonville FL can be a very helpful service to have.
When life keeps you on your toes
Focusing on a demanding career or education can limit your time to keep up with normal daily chores such as tidying up your home, vacuuming, laundry and more. A new baby in the family can also severely limit your time doing those same tasks. Regardless of the reason, dust can keep settling on counter tops and picture frames and small cobwebs can appear in corners and closets. Keeping up with cleaning might just be more than you can handle right now, so a hiring maid service to take over these tasks for a time could be exactly what you need.
Finding reliable maid service
Having a stranger in your home requires trust; especially when that stranger has access to certain rooms or areas of your home normally reserved for family. You want to find a house cleaning service that is fully state licensed, bonded and insured – and one that will gladly show proof of such documentation when asked. You want maids who have passed a rigorous pre-employment screening process, background check, as well as drug and alcohol checks with random re-testing.
The 50 point checklist
You are paying for a cleaning service, so of course you want your home to be thoroughly cleaned the first time. Finding a service that offers a checklist of areas they cover is a great way to ensure the job is done well. Your kitchen is probably the most visited room in your home, and there are a number of surfaces that need cleaned and disinfected including but not limited to countertops, backsplashes, sinks, window sills, appliance exteriors, stovetop, microwaves and much more. Bedrooms could benefit from vacuuming, bed making, dusting and cobweb removal. Bathrooms need cleaning in the shower and tub area, vanities, mirrors, toilets and countertops. Emptying the trash from all rooms and doing some general straightening is also a nice touch from a maid service!
