Should You Be Home During a Cleaning? What Most Clients Choose

This comes up a lot, especially with first-time clients.

Short answer: it’s totally up to you.

Some people like being home the first visit just to feel comfortable. Others prefer to run errands or head to work and come back once everything’s done. Both are completely normal.

From our side, it doesn’t really change how we clean. We follow the same checklist either way. If you are home, we’ll usually just ask where you’d like us to start and then stay out of your way as much as possible.

If you’re not home, we just ask for:

• Clear access

• Any special instructions ahead of time

• A way to lock up when we’re done

Most recurring clients eventually aren’t home. Trust builds pretty quickly once you’ve had a few cleanings under your belt.
