Typical Cleaning Services

When you hire a cleaning company, you can usually customize the type of cleaning services performed. Different cleaning companies offer different services so it's important to understand what is offered, what you need and how much the services should cost. Here is a good list of all the different types of cleaning services offered by local cleaning companies:

Bathrooms
Clean, scrub and sanitize showers, bathtubs and sinks. Clean and sanitize vanities, backsplashes and toilets. Clean mirrors. Polish chrome. Wash floors and tile walls. Deodorize.

Floors
Another regular maid service is floor-care throughout the home. According to Kate Donnelly, who has owned a housekeeping service in Las Vegas for 22 years, people are replacing carpet with wood or ceramic floors. Cleaning bare floors is cumbersome. Vacuuming and cleaning carpet is also high maintenance. Maid services will freshly vacuum carpeted floors, even moving smaller items to vacuum, and they wash the floors and thoroughly clean the wood floors.

Kitchens
Clean appliances, counters, cabinets, tables and chairs. Clean, scrub and sanitize sinks. Clean and sanitize countertops and backsplashes. Clean the range top and refrigerator top and exterior. Clean microwave oven inside and out. Wash floors.

Rooms
Regular maintenance is performed in every room the housekeeping service is contracted to clean. Typical services include dusting furniture, lamps, ceiling fans and shelves; detailing baseboards; emptying ashtrays and wastebaskets; dusting picture frames and knickknacks; cleaning floors; and cleaning and polishing all glass, mirror and chrome.

Other cleaning services such as windows, walls, baseboards, ceiling fans or lighting can all be added as well. Usually this is a type of cleaning service that is added every other month or cleaning depending on how often home owners have a maid service clean their home.
