Your choice in a New York cleaning company is a very important one. While many different companies say they offer cleaning services, not everyone can perform at the level of cleanliness and sanitation that you should expect. 

What should you do? Do you need to simply find one and hope they’re good? No! By looking for a few certain criteria, you’ll have a much better idea as to which team is a good enough cleaning company for you. 

Help Choosing a Cleaning Company

As you look for the right company to clean your home or commercial facility, be sure to only sign a contract with a team who bring these criteria to the table:

They Have Reliable References of Past/Current Clients

Don’t just take their word for it; find out from clients who have actually used their services whether or not they do the type of job they claim to. A high-quality company will have plenty of references. Online reviews, like those found on Yelp or Angie’s List, are a good place to start.  There, you can check ratings by reviewers as well as read a few sentences as to why they earned that score.

They Can Work Around Your Schedule

If you’re a commercial facility, you probably don’t want them cleaning with customers there. On the other hand, those looking for residential cleaning services don’t want the cleaning crew there at 9 pm. Whatever and whenever you need them, they should be able to accommodate it.

They Are “Green”

Before you officially hire them, be sure to learn if they use cleaning supplies that are safe for your employees, children, or pets. It is no longer true that cleaning agents must be harsh chemicals in order to work. Look for something eco-friendly and green!

They Have The Right Equipment

It is also a good idea to find out what equipment the company has and will use in your building or home. The best companies will know what to use on hardwood, carpet, tile, and stone. You’ll want to be sure they’re equipped for your exact flooring.

They Have Insurance

Accidents can happen, even while doing jobs that aren’t “dangerous.” Before an accident happens on your property, make sure your cleaning service is bonded and has the right amount of insurance coverage. Otherwise, you may end up paying for an injury yourself!
