House Cleaning Service in Toronto

How to Find a Good House Cleaning Service in Toronto

Following are some internal tips on how to find a good and reliable house cleaning service in Toronto. This is based on our experience of being in the cleaning business since 2005, and in large part of the conversations we have had with clients who have had bad experiences. While at the end of the day we expect you to choose elitehousekeeping for your homecleaning needs, these recommendations are unbiased and we recognize that our approach may not be to everyone's taste.

It really comes down to researching a little more online. While there are obvious things like reviewing reviews on several review sites or Google Business, some lesser known strategies include reviewing a cleaning company's website in more detail. How long have they been in business? Do you have a unique value proposition? Do they value their employees ... or the environment? Once you have overlooked the initial sales argument, consider diving a little more to learn more about the business!

There are some questions you may have to ask in person. For example, do they perform a pre-cleaning inspection? We think it's a little crazy that so many companies don't do this. How else are you going to really understand the needs of your customers if you don't take the time to review the details of the work, in person, with them?

Similarly, do you do some kind of post-work monitoring to make sure you are satisfied? The house cleaning business still depends heavily on word of mouth; A company that develops its satisfaction in its processes is more likely to gain its trust and references. And be long term.

Another thing is that if at some point your spider senses begin to tingle, remember that there are many options available. For example, do you ask for money in advance? This is a sure sign of problems ... if you cannot support the work you are going to do or request a deposit in advance, be careful. There are a number of "fly at night" agencies that operate in this way. Remember, the buyer is careful!

There is a lot of competition in the Toronto house cleaning market. Companies will have their own unique value propositions, so try to find a service that is consistent with what you value. For example, here at elitehousekeeping we probably value our employees more than any other agency in Toronto. We do our best to keep them happy and retain a good long-term staff, we feel that over time we can offer the best service. We also work very hard in our house cleaning process: we always start with a pre-cleaning inspection and request comments after each job. We are not interested in price matching because we really believe that we provide better quality cleaning and, although we can be more expensive than other services, we feel that we provide a better overall value.

Take your time, especially if you are looking for a recurring house cleaning (for example, cleaning or cleaning services on a regular basis). The time you invest in advance to find the service that suits you will pay dividends in the future. Thank you and good luck with all your cleaning needs!
