Let’s be honest: trusting someone in your home, especially when you’re not there, is a big deal.
Who can you really trust? It’s not just about a sparkling floor; it’s about peace of mind.
Whether you’re hiring a cleaner for the first time or switching after a bad experience, there’s one essential question you must ask:
👉 Does this company thoroughly screen, train, and stand behind their cleaners?
A trustworthy cleaning service should be able to tell you exactly how they hire, train, background check,
and match their team to your home.
At Clean for Good, we treat your trust like gold—because we know it’s earned, not assumed.
💡 What Makes a Cleaner Actually Trustworthy?
If you’re wondering how to spot a red flag (or a hidden gem), here are a few areas to focus on:
🔍 1. Ask About the Hiring Process
Pro tip: If a company can’t walk you through how they hire… walk away.
At Clean for Good, every team member goes through:
-
A multi-stage interview process
-
Reference checks
-
Police vetting / criminal record checks
-
A full in-house training programme before stepping foot in a client’s home
No casual hires. No outsourcing. Just committed, career cleaners who love what they do.
🧠 2. Check for Continuity
“Will I get the same cleaner every time?”
That question alone can reveal how organized—and how trustworthy—a company really is.
A high-integrity cleaning company will:
-
Pair you with a consistent team or individual
-
Communicate clearly about any changes or subs
-
Maintain a detailed schedule so your home is always familiar territory
💡 At Clean for Good, we aim to assign the same cleaner for regular clients 90% of the time. Because relationships matter.
🔐 3. Look for Transparent Policies
Trustworthy companies put it all in writing. That means:
-
Written agreements (no surprises)
-
Clear cancellation or reschedule policies
-
Customer service that actually replies
If a company communicates only by phone and never confirms anything in writing, that’s a hard pass for us
