đźš« Why $300 Didn't Get the Dishes Done... đźš«
​We’ve all seen the viral posts of homeowners coming home to a clean house but a sink full of dirty dishes, feeling completely let down.
But here’s the industry secret: House Cleaners, Housekeepers, and Maids are NOT the same thing!
​When there’s confusion about who does what, expectations get missed.
Here is the quick breakdown so you always get exactly what you’re paying for:
​🧼 1. The House Cleaner (What We Do!)
​Think of us as the heavy-duty sanitizing squad.
We come in on a schedule (weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly) to deep clean, scrub, and disinfect.
​Our Job:
Scrubbing showers, bleaching toilets, wiping baseboards, dusting, and vacuuming.
​The Catch: We can’t clean a surface we can't reach! If the sink is full of dishes or the floors are covered in toys, we can't properly sanitize them. We need the home "picked up" so we can do our magic. Services outside of the standard scope need to be agreed upon at a separate charge prior to your scheduled service.
​🧺 2. The Housekeeper
​Housekeepers come in much more frequently (often daily or multiple times a week) to manage the daily upkeep and flow of your home.
​Their Job: YES, they do the dishes! They also fold laundry, tidy up clutter, make beds, and keep the daily chaos at bay.
​🧹 3. The Maid
​Historically a live-in role, today's "maid service" usually refers to consistent, daily light cleaning.
​Their Job: Keeping the home continuously orderly—light dusting, sweeping, changing linens, and ensuring the house looks presentable day in and day out.
​💡 The Golden Rule:
​If you want your home deeply scrubbed and sanitized, you want a House Cleaner.
If you want help tackling daily chores, organizing, and washing dishes, you want a Housekeeper!
Did you know there was a difference, or have you been mixing these up?
