One Time Cleaning
The non-stop lifestyle of today’s modern day family leaves little time for cleaning the house. So when you decide to have a social gathering or have impromptu guests from overseas, a thorough yet quick cleanup of the house is essential. However, with both husband & wife working and with children to mind, this chore may seem difficult to carry out without external help. A1 Cleaning Services’ One Time Cleaning package is the solution to overcome this predicament.
When is an One Time Cleaning Service Required
Although you may be cleaning your home on a regular basis, certain occasions or events warrant your abode to be cleaned thorough and comprehensively. A One Time Cleaning job will help get your home ready for
Special occasions such as weddings, birthday parties, social gatherings
Holiday visits from relatives or friends
Return from a long vacation or overseas assignment
Renting or selling your home, and so on
These are some instances where you’d require external, professional help to perform a cleaning exercise, especially when you are short on time and energy.
How to Make the Most of Your One Time Cleaning Service Hire
Once you have decided to call for an external cleaning service, get organized and make a list of the chores that needs to be tackled. Identify hard to reach areas and those that need a thorough cleaning. For example, ceiling fans and hanging lights, air-con vents, etc. Have all your cleaning equipment and detergents ready. Make the most of your one time contract hire by planning ahead and giving out clear instructions to the cleaners. Be present during the cleaning work and check on the cleaners at a regular interval.
