What is Maid Service?

The word “maid” may bring to mind images of Rosie the Robot from the classic children’s show, The Jetsons. As kids, we watched the helpful robot maid roll around the Jetsons’ house to help the family, and we developed visions of a bright and happy future. 

Fast forward to today, we do have Roombas and dishwashers but no Rosie the Robots yet. And while we may be a little ways off from robot maids completing our daily housekeeping tasks for us, we do have professional maid services from H&R Cleaning!

We know how important it is to keep a clean house! With school starting, youth sports filling our schedules, and the holidays just around the corner, time is more valuable than ever. Save your time and keep your house clean with our recurring maid services! But, what is maid service? We’ve described it below. 

What is Maid Service?

Maid service may have several different definitions and scope of services, depending on where you look. Here at H&R Cleaning, our maid services provide recurring professional cleaning help for homes. These services are more detailed and routine than one-time or regular house cleaning jobs. Our maid services involve detailed cleaning tasks at regular intervals like weekly or biweekly. This allows our team to invest in your home, build trust and rapport with you, and develop customized cleaning help for your home. We can tailor these regular cleanings to fit your individual needs and wants. We become more than cleaning company employees showing up to do a job. We really do become like family. 

The benefits of maid services are many. First, we are able to develop a customized plan for you as we learn overtime what you need. We learn the quirks and unique needs of your home and become better equipped to meet the demands of your home and family over time. This means our maid cleaning services become more and more effective and helpful over time. 

Secondly, routine cleaning enables us to invest in the upkeep of your home, increasing its value over time. This also helps prevent problems in your home. Thirdly, our recurring maid services give you peace of mind! We hear all the time from our clients how much they love coming home on cleaning day! When you know the messes will be taken care of, you can rest easy and focus on other important topics.

How Does Maid Service Work? 

Who you bring into your home is important. This is why you should follow these steps to hire a reliable and trustworthy maid service. First, do a search for local recurring maid service companies. Check their reviews for complaints or issues. Make sure they are local and are established in your community. Then, research their team. You want to find a service that is insured and bonded. Make sure their team members go through a background check and professional training. 

Once you’ve ensured the team is legit and reliable, then find out if they offer maid services for the frequency and times that fit your needs. Make sure the scope of their maid service covers the cleaning you need. Further, ensure they do a walk-through of your property to develop a custom plan for you and an accurate quote. You don’t want to get stuck with a service that doesn’t meet your needs. 

Finally, check the maid service for contracts and guarantees. Do you have to sign a service contract? Do they offer a guarantee? We do not make you sign a contract here at H&R Cleaning. In fact, we believe our work should speak for itself and make you want to keep us coming back. Also, we provide a 24 hour guarantee.
