Evening guys ....

Been very quiet on here lately as ive been super busy at work....

Lots going on in the background family wise in last 18 month ......

Anyway just a polite little reminder ...being a small business I always ask where ever possible if you could please try wherever possible when terminating cleans to please give as close to 4 weeks notice as possible .I have to try to advertise and replace that slot ASAP 😊

LATE PAYMENTS

I dont like having to do posts like this but .....
●I am a sole trader
●I have commitments and bills to pay .like everyone else
●I try my best to provide the highest quality of work for the best prices i can .
●when i go home I still have admin , mileage , invoices messages to reply to ....before I can switch off for the day
●i work 6 days a week most the year!

All I ask is cleans are paid for on time , you wouldn't go get your hair or nails done then pay the following week .
Chasing payments adds on extra stress and eats into the little time from work i get .

Thank you 😊

I have had the pleasure of looking after this beautiful converted barn for 7 year now .we have also booked it many times to .

Deep in north Northumberland not far from ridsdale off the a68. So pretty tranquil and peaceful .
I highly recommend having a look at the very least ! Lovely lovely owners too ! Oh you can take your pooch too 😊🐕.

The Byres is a beautiful holiday home in the heart of the stunning Northumberland countryside.

UNPOPULAR OPINION (FROM A CLEANER):

Why are cleaners the only trade people tell what they want to pay?

Imagine calling an electrician and saying:

“Yeah… I know you quoted £300 but I was thinking £120?”

You wouldn’t.

Because you’d be laughed off the phone.

You don’t negotiate with plumbers when your pipes burst.

You don’t tell a solicitor your “budget” for legal advice.

You don’t ask a dentist for a discount halfway through a filling.

But cleaners?

“Oh… this is what I want to pay.”
“This is my budget.”
“It should only take a couple hours.”
“Can you just do it cheaper?”

Let me say this louder for the people at the back:

HYGIENE IS NOT A MARKET STALL.

You are not negotiating over a handbag.
You are negotiating over cleanliness, bacteria control, safety, and standards.

What fascinates me is this, people will happily spend:

💷 £4+ on a coffee
💷 Hundreds on takeaways each month
💷 Thousands on décor and furniture

…but suddenly become expert negotiators when it comes to the thing that actually protects the environment they live or work in.

Why is hygiene the one service people think is optional… or negotiable?

You’re not paying for “a wipe over.”

You’re paying for:

✔ experience
✔ insurance
✔ equipment
✔ chemicals
✔ compliance
✔ physical labour
✔ accountability

And most importantly, care.

Cleaners aren’t overpriced.

The industry has just been undervalued for far too long.

So here’s my controversial take:

If you want cheap, you don’t want professional.

And if you negotiate on hygiene… don’t be surprised when standards match the price.

True story 💯

Morning guys !

Can't quite believe I'm writing this.....

My small business turns 4 year old this week! 😱

4 years of me being my own boss !
Building up a regular customer base and over 75% of them have been with me since year 1!

I have 20 regular customers a mix of residential / office / factory and air bnb! And I personally think that's an amazing achievement for me!

I'm super super proud of what I have achieved in these 4 years !
And when I say it has been hard i mean that !

Everyone instantly assumes you have it cushy being your own boss . FYI you really do not at all .

I get no days off when I want .no holiday pay , I have to save to cover my jobs i loose while I'm on holiday in order to pay my bills .
No sick pay , and then trying to squeeze the jobs you loose in somewhere so I'm not out of pocket.
I work 6 days a week most weeks for around 10 month of the year .

The best part for me is i don't answer to anyone , and all the work done is my own and I know its done to my standards that I know are expected of me .
And thats what makes it all worth while 😊

You will never please everyone and thats life , but i have built up the loyalty and trust of all of my lovely customers , quite a few i now class as good friends.😊

So for me to be going into 4 years of being my own boss, late night's doing diary's,and months of mileage because I kept putting it off ! Weeks of anxiety as tax return date looms , updating socials, post it notes all over reminding me to reply to messages ( sorry im horrendous for forgetting) keeping tabs on stock , and the hundreds of cloths my poor washer cleans 🤣
Is amazing and worth every stress and ache and pain 🤣

Not forgetting im a mam to 4 children.(5 if you count the OH 🤣) And a nana to a 15 month old .a almost non existent social life and I dont see my family as much as id like to .
But this is life and im living it the best I can .... and bossing it!

If you read to the end thank you 🤣🤣

Let's see what 2026 has i store for me !

Happy birthday Specnspan cleaning services
