Cleaning ladies near you in South Portland, ME offer cleaning services ranging from general upkeep of a home (such as keeping bathrooms, floors, and windows clean) to more specialized projects that aren’t needed as often (like washing walls or cleaning appliances). It’s important to be very detailed when you communicate with the cleaning person you hire so you are on the same page regarding exactly what cleaning services need to be completed.

Cleaning ladies near you in South Portland, ME who have profiles on Care.com are asked to complete an annual background check called a CareCheck. Independent cleaning ladies who complete this background check will have a badge on their profile displaying the date it was run. A CareCheck is a good jumping off point, but we strongly recommend that you take additional steps to hire a cleaning lady safely. For example, you can interview candidates, check references, and run an independent background check.

When hiring a cleaning lady near you in South Portland, ME, one of the most important things to know is that no one cleaning service is the same. All homes have different needs, you will have your own unique preferences surrounding cleaning products and services, and every independent cleaning lady offers their own set of services. This is why it’s a good idea to interview a few candidates to find the right fit.
