Wow, that is detailed! I've seen companies that ask what needs doing in each room, but not to that extent!
It's as though they don't want customers...Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0 -
Just my thinking Toto but wouldnt it be good to book someone for 4 hours a week to start with on a 4 week trial basis and go from there?? Or is that too easy for these companies??
Weird!
That's what I'd like becky. I think the companies around here are odd, I will try some more tomorrow. I quite fancy having the big one day blitz thing done then someone come in once a week after that, or a couple of hours twice a week... hmm can you get live in cleaners :rotfl::A

I'm lucky with my garden, the neighbours love gardening and I kill things just by looking at them, so I buy the plants and they do the work. Just wish I'd spent less this year, since there's only been about a weeks worth of days to sit out and enjoy it!Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0

Toto - any cleaning company worth their salt will know what needs doing from when they come round to have a look. Thats like someone coming to me and telling me what needs doing with their accountants.....:cool:
And yes, start with a blitz.....I have two cleaners for about 1 and a half hours per week. They always give the kitchen, toilets and bathrooms a good going over. They always clean my shower out. The girls bedrooms - well they do what they can - sometimes they are the pits....and they do a rota of the other stuff......one week they do down the sofas and under them, the week after they do under beds etc...Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford

Bunny, I am not sure that I will run again...........seem to have lost my mojo......
So i can't commit to a 10k but i am going to do a five min run every day for the next couple of weeks to see what happens.....
Otherwise Gertie Garmin is going up for sale....Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford
