HOUSE CLEANING

STANDARD HOUSE CLEANING

If You’re On the Fence – We Get It

Thinking about getting some housekeeping help around the house? A little on the fence about it? Totally understandable. There is a plethora of businesses that offer house cleaning. Until you take the leap it’s hard to know if you’ll be treated respectfully, receive quality service, get a quality home cleaning, and can trust the housekeeper you are letting into your home.

That’s why we won’t pump our maid service up here. You might be on the fence. That’s okay. Instead, we want to share a couple of stories with you.

Then there’s Sam. She had been shopping around for a home cleaner for some time and tried some of our competitors. For one reason or another – poor customer service, overpriced, difficulty scheduling – she ended up giving us a shot in late 2021. She was elated with our work and our cleaning team. Her Volunteer Maids housekeeper was efficient, friendly, and quiet. That’s something you may want. Maybe you’re working from home or just trying to relax and catch your breath. We are happy to shoot the breeze if you are feeling chatty but also know sometimes silence is a gift too. Sam has become a repeat customer with us, and we are glad that she trusts us in her home every two weeks to do the dirty work so she doesn’t have to.

WHAT’S CLEANED?

Our standard house cleaning service is our most popular option and suits most of our customers perfectly. Many choose Volunteer Maids to help maintain and clean their homes while they’re busy running errands, spending quality time with family, or working. They look forward to coming home to a stress-relieving, clean environment.

We have a highly selective hiring process, with only about 2% of applicants being hired. Why? Because we want you to TRUST US in your home. That’s no small feat, and we pride ourselves on being a maid service you feel safe having in your home.
We specialize in residential cleaning services, including homes, rental properties, condominiums, and apartments. You can choose a one-time service or set up a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly schedule. The choice is yours, and you can modify your preferences anytime using our easy online portal.
Let Volunteer Maids take the stress out of keeping your home clean.

HOW DO I PREPARE?

Alright, you’re ready to take the leap with at least one cleaning! Awesome! Simply click the “Book Now!” button to set up your first maid service appointment. Unless you set up recurring cleanings, we won’t bug you to book again. It’s your call because it’s your home.
Before cleaning day, our team will be in touch via email or phone to gather some details. Will you be home, or is there a code we can use to get in? If you want recurring house cleaning, is there a door key we can keep for easy access? Do you want a general overall cleaning of all rooms, or are there extras you’d like to add, such as interior refrigerator cleaning or interior window cleaning?
On cleaning day, we’ll arrive ready to work. If you have any items of particularly high value, like an antique vase or heirloom, we’ll ensure they’re given wide space. We recommend doing your best to rein in as much clutter as possible—**cough children’s toys cough**. While we’ll happily deal with clutter, it may mean a price adjustment due to the extra work. Either way, we’re here to serve you, and if you just want help with clutter, that’s what we’ll do!
Afterward, you’ll receive an email from us asking how the cleaning service went. Choose the smiley 🙂, neutral 😐, or frowny 🙁 face and share any thoughts, concerns, or compliments. Your feedback is central to our operations. It helps us determine which housekeepers earned a bonus, what we can improve upon, and what we did exceptionally well so we can pass on the praise to the appropriate team member. Your feedback influences performance bonuses, raises, and who gets their choice of cleaning jobs, helping us become a better housekeeping business.
You can even book another cleaning with us if you’d like. Either way, you’ll have a clean home to come back to, relax in, and sleep in that night, and that makes us smile at Volunteer Maids.

When To Choose A Standard House Cleaning Service

You should consider a standard cleaning service if you need extra help with cleaning once or several times a month. Finding time to manage household chores is challenging, but your home should be your sanctuary to relax and enjoy time with friends and family. This can be hard to achieve when you’re stressed about cleaning bathrooms, mopping floors, and doing laundry.
Our standard house cleaning service is our most popular option and works best for most of our customers. Many choose Dallas Maids to help maintain and clean their homes while they’re busy running errands or spending quality time with their families.
Dallas Maids specializes in residential cleaning services for homes, rental properties, and apartments. You can choose a one-time service or set up a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly schedule to fit your needs.
A standard residential cleaning service focuses on the essential areas of your house—those you use most frequently or that require regular cleaning: bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, and living areas.
We will dust surfaces, shine appliances, scrub and disinfect fixtures, and vacuum and mop floors. All of this is done in just a couple of hours, allowing you to enjoy your free time with friends and family or simply relax on your own!

A CLEANING SERVICE ON YOUR OWN TERMS

You don’t need a long-term cleaning service if you don’t want one. You always have the choice to book a one-time service or set up a more consistent schedule to keep your property clean and tidy.

This can be automated, with our staff arriving after every guest checkout, or you can choose to book our service manually. You can also contact us to find the best option for your needs.

Your type of cleaning, the products used, the areas and surfaces cleaned, and any additional chores are all on your own terms. Just let us know the details during the booking process, and we’ll handle the rest.

At Volunteer Maids, we cater to your preferences, ensuring a clean and comfortable home.

Frequently Asked Questions

Forgetting about your booking is common, especially among first-timers. But there’s no need to worry! If this is the first time you’ve hired our services, or if this is a one-time service, we will call the day before to ensure your home will be available for cleaning on the next day.


We just need a few things from you to get ready beforehand.


First things first, decide whether you are staying home during the cleaning service, if you are leaving right before handing the keys, or if you will not be home. Promptly let us know during the booking process or before the cleaning day to ensure our staff will be able to enter your home.


Next, please declutter your home a little bit. Of course, this doesn’t mean you need to vacuum, wipe surfaces, dust, or any other cleaning-related task. That’s what we are here for! We just need you to pick items up off the ground and arrange items the best you can. For our cleaners, this means less time and energy spent picking up items, allowing them to focus on cleaning your home.


Finally, don’t forget to place important documents in a safe area such as a drawer or cabinet. Otherwise, they could be mistakenly disposed of by our cleaning staff.

After you take all previous steps, feel free to plan out your day while we clean your home!

Being home to let our staff in is great and perfect for getting started right away. It’s common for customers to wait for our staff to arrive, hand over the keys, and then go enjoy their free time. If you want, you can give them brief instructions or any necessary information.


You don’t need to stay home while our staff works their magic. But if you choose to stay, we kindly ask two things:


First, please avoid hovering over the cleaners. They are professionals with plenty of cleaning experience. While they can occasionally miss an area or surface, like any human being, please wait until they finish. If you notice anything that wasn’t completed to your satisfaction, you can check their work afterward and point it out.


Second, many people work from home, especially since COVID-19. If you prefer to stay home, that’s perfectly fine! We do ask you to stay out of their way while they clean. If you are working, please briefly leave when it’s time for our staff to clean your office or workspace. You can take a break or continue your work in a different area.

We have no problem working with pets! If they are friendly around strangers, feel free to let them roam around your home.


However, if you think they might be aggressive or agitated around our staff, please place them in a secured area or take them to the park while our cleaners work. The last thing we want is an accident or someone getting injured.


Thank you for choosing Volunteer Maids!

At Volunteer Maids, we work hard to ensure your satisfaction throughout the entire process: before, during, and after your cleaning. Part of this involves quality control once our staff completes the service.


The day after your cleaning service, we will call you to ask a few questions about our staff’s performance and interaction with you.


Occasionally, we will request an online review. This will take no more than 5 minutes and helps us showcase our work while assisting others in deciding if our cleaning service fits their needs.


For regular customers, we will follow up occasionally to ensure everything is going perfectly and maintaining our top-notch quality.


If you are less than happy at any point during the service, please call us within 48 hours. We will listen to your concerns, take note, and if the cleaning process was not followed correctly, we will fix it at your earliest convenience at no additional charge.

It’s perfectly normal to hire a one-time service to test the waters and see if you would enjoy recurring cleanings in the future.


We hope you were happy enough with our services to switch to a recurring cleaning schedule. If that’s the case, feel free to let us know during our follow-up call after your service, or use any of our contact methods.


Or simply go to our booking page and select your preferred cleaning frequency!
