There are over 1.2 million janitorial services in the U.S. It’s a crowded marketplace, making finding the right one challenging.
So, how do you do it? Fortunately, several tell-tale signs separate a good professional commercial cleaning company from a bad one.
Good Reviews
The first point of the call should always be to check online reviews. If an experience is very good or bad, customers will likely take to the internet to express their feelings. Generally, the best place to check is Google. As the most readily available platform, it often has the most reviews, providing a more in-depth picture. Don’t just focus on the four and five-star ones either, poor experiences can be just as telling.
Here at M.D Environmental Services, our hands our clean. Out of 13 reviews, every single one has given us five stars. Feel free to find us on google to see how popular we are with our customers.
Licensed and Insured
Ok, so a professional cleaning company might look good on paper. But, if they don’t have the appropriate license, it could leave you in hot water. Should your house sustain any damage, then you will be liable. No one else will pick up the slack, meaning you will need to claim on your own insurance or, worse, pay for any damage yourself.
If a cleaning company is fully licensed, bonded, and insured, it should be available on its website (as it is on ours). If you can’t see it, it’s worth checking before signing on.
Types of Industry / Work
Cleaning is not a one-size-fits-all. There are multiple different types of janitorial services that a company will offer and that you might need. That’s why it’s so important to have an initial conversation before booking any services, so both parties feel comfortable that they can work together. Without this communication, there can be problems down the line – something we can all do without.
Before we work with anyone, we always invite them to have a quick 30-minute consultation. You can arrange a consultation with one of our experts on our website.
Flexible Times
When you speak with a professional cleaning company, understanding the available hours is crucial. For example, if they only work during the week, that might cause scheduling issues. Flexible service is the best to avoid this, ensuring that even if your requirements change, your cleaning service will be able to change with them.
M.D Environmental Services operates seven days a week, providing flexibility and peace of mind. We offer janitorial services, construction cleaning services, and residential cleaning services.
