8 Myths about hiring a house cleaner busted

20 Oct 16

There are so many myths about cleaners that are not true. It is unfortunate that these myths still exist within the cleaning industry.

The truth is, having a home cleaner can make your life easier!

We are here to bust some of these myths to help set the story straight!,/p>

Myth #1: Only women can clean!

Many people think that only women can clean which is absolutely not true!

With the right training anyone can be a cleaner!

Many of our Home Cleaning Franchisees are male and do a fantastic job which their customers love!

Myth #2: Only lazy people need a cleaner

Quality time spent with your loved ones is hard with long working hours and on top of that, your household chores. You don’t have enough time for yourself, your family and the things you love.

People want that quality time back in their lives and that is why people hire the services of a cleaner.

Myth #3: You can’t trust a domestic cleaner

It can be scary letting someone you don’t know into your home and it is understandable why people are uncomfortable with the idea. You hear stories of cleaners not being trustworthy and this can put you off the idea of hiring the services of a cleaner.

This is why it is important to hire a cleaner who is police checked and fully insured (all of our franchisees are).

This way both you and the cleaner are protected – it’s a win-win!

Myth #4: Cleaners don’t know what they are doing

It is important to hire a cleaner that has undergone comprehensive training. This way you know they have been shown the ropes and know what to do and how to do it. It’s important that you feel like your home is in safe hands.

Our franchisees undergo a comprehensive training programme and are trained in the V.I.P. systematic cleaning system. This means they know how to deliver outstanding results each and every time!

Myth #5: Cleaners use horrible products in your home

Check what products the cleaner will be using in your home.

Do you supply the products or do they bring the products with them?

Some cleaning companies (like us) use products that that are environmentally friendly. The products we use contain HealthGuard™ which provides a safe, effective and environmentally sound solution to a wide range of common health problems caused by ineffective bacteriological controls.

Myth #6: If you book a cleaner you must have your house cleaned every week

Most cleaners allow you to choose a tailor made package to suit your needs. Whether it is a weekly, fortnightly, monthly, once off or a clean of selected areas in your home. The choice is yours!

Myth #7: If you book a cleaner anyone can just rock up

Make sure you go with a company that will be sending out the same cleaner each and every time. That way you know who will be in your home. It’s important you feel safe and that you can trust the person who will be in your home.

Our cleaning services are done by the same franchisee each time. The Franchisees are owner operators, meaning they work both on and in the business. You will meet the franchisee during the quoting process and the franchisee will be the person performing the services in your home.

You can feel comfortable knowing who is providing the services in your home at all times.

Myth #8: Finding a cleaner is a long process.

Many cleaning companies have an easy process to find a cleaner instantly.

Finding a cleaner for your home is quick and easy with V.I.P.
