If you’re looking to hire cleaners in Birmingham, you may be wondering what exactly they will be able to achieve in your home in two hours.
After all, if you think about it, two hours isn’t really a long time. But, it can be transformative to your home if it is used wisely.
So, what can you expect a Maid to do in two hours?
Someone offering cleaning services in Truro should be able:
However, there are lots of factors that contribute towards exactly how many of these tasks can be completed in two hours, including:
All of these factors mean it can be hard to estimate exactly how much a cleaner will get done in two hours. However, they generally should be able to do some basic hoovering, clean your kitchen worktops and clean your toilet.
The most important thing to remember is that you are able to positively influence how much a cleaner does in their two-hour session by following the tips below:
Make sure your cleaner clearly understands what you expect of them before they start, so that you can outline the tasks you expect to be completed within the time they are in your home. Clear and precise communication is key to building a good working relationship and building trust, which is why we have made an instant messaging feature an integral part of Maid App.
Cleaners are there to clean, not declutter – unless you have agreed on that additional service. So, if you want to make the most of your cleaner’s time and your home is cluttered then you should get a professional declutter in first.
If you take the time to time yourself completing the cleaning tasks you want your cleaner to complete, then you will have a rough idea of what tasks you can allocate them in their cleaning session and which ones should be left out.
So, for example, if you time yourself hoovering your home, without moving the furniture around and it takes 30 minutes, then note this down. Repeat this process for other cleaning tasks such as cleaning the kitchen floor (30 minutes), cleaning the kitchen worktops (20 minutes) and cleaning the toilet (30 minutes).
You can then add them up to make sure they can be completed within a two-hour time slot.
You can also create a list for your cleaner letting them know exactly what tasks you expect them to do and there will be no need for disappointment.
You will soon realise that your cleaner cannot tackle every room in your house in a two-hour session, which is why it is so important for you to be clear about what you expect them to tackle and in which room. That way they won’t waste precious time cleaning any areas that you don’t want them to.
Make sure there are no hazards in your home that may cause health and safety issues for your cleaner. Moving potential hazards and obstacles will also speed up the cleaning process as well.
This is a great way to open up a two-way conversation with your maid. You can create a list based on the tasks you want them to complete and keep control over what is being cleaned. You can find out why things haven’t been cleaned and amend the list as well, based on feedback from your cleaner.
Giving feedback to your cleaner after your cleaning session means you will get the most out of the time next time as they can maintain or improve their work based on what you have said.
