Employing a maid service may be a luxury, but finding the most suitable cleaning company doesn’t always feel luxurious. With so many different options out there, how do you tell who’s the real deal? Following some simple guidelines will help you make the distinction between a regular cleaning company and a true, professional maid service.

Professionalism
When searching for the right maid service, you should first pay attention to the level of professionalism they are presenting. Anybody can start a cleaning company, but a true professional will be licensed, bonded, and insured. Pay attention to how quickly your initial inquiry is responded to, as well as the appearance of the person who comes to assess your home and offer you an estimate. A neat, tidy, and uniformed individual is generally indicative of a business that takes its clients seriously.

Reputation
There is a lot to be said for a maid service with a positive reputation. Word of mouth is a powerful tool, and people love to talk about services they are very happy (or very unhappy) with. Peruse the company’s website or type their name in a search engine to find local reviews left by consumers. Ask your friends and neighbors if they are familiar with the company and what they have heard about it. Additionally, pay attention to how long the company has been around. Longevity is another valuable indicator that they are keeping their clients satisfied.

Employee Standards
When initially interviewing a maid service, ask about the standards they hold their employees to. How long is employee training and what does it entail? Are employees expected to follow set rules and regulations? Are they background and drug-tested? How are disputes handled? Getting the answers to these pertinent questions will help you to better understand the foundation of the company.

Meet Them Personally
A first impression is an impactful consideration in choosing the right maid service. Trust your intuition that if something feels off, it probably is. A professional should be able to ask questions that will help clarify what your needs are. They may also make suggestions and observations about what services they think you could benefit from. Most importantly, a professional will make you feel confident in your decision to hire them and trust them within your space. Trust is an imperative factor in cultivating a lasting relationship with any service provider.
