Easy to Forget Cleaning Spots

When cleaning your home, a professional cleaning company will hit all of the spots that are easy for most folks to miss. These spots contain dirt and grime that can be hidden from the untrained eye, and for those who aren't experienced in the cleaning industry, these spots might not be ones that are even thought of as needing to be cleaned. We've listed a few of these spots here.

Floors under appliances. A lot of attention is paid to the floors in a home during cleaning, but there are spots on a floor that aren't shown as much love; particularly, those areas of a floor that are underneath appliances like refrigerators and stoves. Speaking of stoves...


The stove. This is one area that a lot of people don't bother to clean if the top, front, and sides look okay. Unfortunately, there is almost always hidden dirt and grease in hidden areas, such as the top of the stove that can usually be flipped up.

Counters under appliances. Much like floors, counters get a lot of attention when cleaning, but the underneath areas of appliances like microwaves and toasters often get ignored. Cooking residue, as well as crumbs from bread and other foods can get trapped under these, meaning these areas should also be cleaned on a regular basis.

Three More Reasons to Hire a Cleaning Service

We've posted multiple times about the benefits you can experience from hiring a cleaning service. It's quite a relief to take one less thing off of your plate, especially when you're handing it off to someone with professional experience doing that specific task. A cleaning specialist brings that to the table when it's time to tidy up your home.

Here are a few other reasons you should consider hiring a cleaning service.

It can bring out your creative side. Some homeowners find that, when they hire a cleaning service, they feel more mentally able to get into a creative state of mind. When this occurs, they can pursue creative pastimes, further their skills in a particular hobby, and more.

It helps give you peace of mind. When you come back to a clean home, you're free to kick back, relax, and read a book or watch TV. After a long day of work, this worry-free downtime is tough to beat. It's downtime you're able to enjoy thanks to the work of your cleaning service.

No one cleans better. You could clean your home yourself, but cleaning isn't your specialty. You're not a professional, and it's not what you do for a living. Do you think you could do as thorough a job as someone who knows to clean often overlooked areas, knows the best methods to use, and keeps up with the tricks of the trade? If not, you should consider hiring a VA cleaning service.

What to look for in a good cleaning service

Hiring a cleaning service can save you a lot of time, and can even help increase your income if you can use your time not cleaning to bring in more money. But before you run off and hire the first cleaning company you see in the phone book, there are a few steps you should take first.

Check prices. One of the first things you should do when considering hiring a cleaning service is to call around to different companies and see what they're going rate is, and what kind of packages they offer. When you find a few that have prices you're comfortable with, you can have a more narrow field to choose from.

Ask around. See who your family and friends have hired in the past for their house cleanings, and check those companies out to see if they're still doing good work. You can even ask companies for references from current and past customers to get an unbiased opinion.

Hire professionals. Be sure the company you're dealing with is a professional company, and not just someone doing a little bit of cleaning work on the side. You'll want a cleaning company that is both bonded and insured, and has the necessary equipment to give your home the best cleaning possible.

More Benefits to Hiring a Cleaning Service

Cleaning your own home doesn't just require your time and labor, it also requires equipment, supplies, a place to store these supplies, and some know-how on how to properly use them to get the job done. If you're not much of a cleaner and you're not sure what you should buy or how to use cleaning supplies, what can you do?

Hiring a cleaning service, of course! Most cleaning services use top of the line janitorial equipment to clean up your home, and the specialists that come bring their own supplies and know the best ways to use them. Because they know what they've brought and which supplies are available to them, they'll be able to get through the process of cleaning your home more quickly.

Improve Home Value by Hiring a Maid Service

If you're one who often neglects house cleaning chores, or you simply don't have enough minutes in the day to get those particular tasks done, you might consider hiring a maid service to help out. It's a great way to make sure your home stays clean, and it'll give you back some of your own time that would've otherwise been spent doing the job yourself.

But did you know that hiring a cleaning company can also improve the value of your home? Most maid services provide very thorough cleaning services, often cleaning in areas that non-professionals would overlook or forget about. As time goes on, a home in which certain areas aren't cleaned enough or at all can see those neglected areas become stained or scarred in such a way that the damage is irreversible. A cleaning service that regularly hits these trouble spots can prevent such a situation from occurring.

Custom Maid is one such company; a VA cleaning service that can come to your home at a regularly-scheduled time and make sure things stay neat and tidy. Interested in learning more about how Custom Maid can help you? Give us a call today at (757) 499-8568.

Reclaim Your Life with a Cleaning Service

If you're a busy parent, you're undoubtedly busy enough as it is. You might have a full-time job that you go to every day, in addition to the responsibility you have of running your children around to school, sports practices, and more. When you finally get home, you find your duties still aren't complete. Dinner must be cooked, and the house must be cleaned.

Custom Maid can't help you taxi your kids around or cook dinner, but we can help keep your home clean so that you have one less thing on your plate.

A clean home is a less stressful home, and allows those inside of it to more easily relax. That's one of the benefits of hiring a maid service like Custom Maid. After a long day, you can come home knowing that your home will be in great shape. The time you'd otherwise spend cleaning is time that you'll now have back to do whatever you wish -- whether that's kick back and watch TV, go out for dinner, take piano lessons, or anything else.
