There’s this misconception that hiring professional home cleaners to tidy up your house is expensive. It could be true for most homeowners. But if you’ll take time and think of it, letting the experts handle the dirty business will actually help you save more money.
In this piece, we’re going to list down all the reasons why we think hiring professional home cleaning services is much more inexpensive than doing all the cleaning yourself.
First up!
- You can spend your time earning more money
- You don’t have to buy cleaning tools and substances
- Disinfectant solution: $30
- Window cleaning kit: $57
- Scour pad: $16
- Floor scrub: $16
- Dust control mops: $35
- Regular home maintenance will save you money
Let’s face it, cleaning an entire house will likely take a day or two, especially for inexperienced hands like yours. Brightening up the bathroom alone might take you forever to finish.
What if we tell you that instead of spending your entire day cleaning the house, you can make use of that time to earn more money?
This works especially if you’re a stay-at-home mom working as a freelancer. If you would spend your energy working on projects rather than scrubbing the floor or arranging every room in the house, you might earn more money than the expense of hiring home cleaning services.
Who loves cleaning an entire house, anyway? If you share that sentiment, hiring others to do the dirty work is an easy choice!
Cleaning an entire property requires different tools and cleaning solutions, especially if you own a tall house and a large yard. It’s just impossible to tidy up a big house using normal equipment.
If you’ve got the money to spend, you can buy grass trimmers for your lawn, a pressure washer for your outside walls, and several ladders to reach the gutter.
Having these tools is convenient since you have them at your disposal whenever you plan to clean the house.
But let’s be honest here. When was the last time you actually picked up and used these tools? How many times in a month or year will you pressure wash your exterior, or trim the tall glass, or clean the roof?
So instead of buying these tools and letting them sit in the shed for quite a time, you might be better off saving that money and hiring professionals to do the dirty work.
Most professional home cleaning services are complete with tools and all kinds of different cleaning solutions for all kinds of surfaces. They invest their money in these materials, so you don’t have to. Take this computation for example:
These materials are just simple tools and you’ve already spent about $100. If you spend that $100 hiring professional home cleaners, they’ll bring their cleaning detergents, their tools, and their expertise in cleaning your house! You know, same price, different results.
Let’s add the fact that you could have spent that time to find projects and earn more money, or simply reward yourself with a day off. Hiring the experts proves to be more cost-effective here!
In case you don’t know, regular maintenance is the solution to costly repairs.
Take your carpets for example. If you’re cleaning them by yourself all this time, and not locating the spots that need cleaning, you’ll still end up having dirty carpet. On the other hand, if you don’t clean your carpet at all, mould will start to build up to the point that it’s not usable anymore. And you have to buy yourself a new one.
The same goes with your appliances like refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, and others. If you don’t clean them regularly and thoroughly, the dirt and gunk build-up inside the appliances might destroy them sooner or later.
Sometimes it’s not even the frequency of cleaning that’s the problem. It’s the way things were done. Were they all properly cleaned? How much time was spent on cleaning one area or gadget in the house?
Because if you’re a busy bee with too much on your plate, you probably didn’t have that much time to check everything.
So if we were you, we’d rather hire professionals to do the cleaning so we can focus our energy on other things.
