Booking professional cleaners is a smart investment — and a little preparation helps your team focus on what they do best. You do not need to pre-clean before cleaners arrive, but a few simple steps can make the visit smoother and more effective.

Declutter surfaces and floors

Put away clothes, toys, dishes, and paperwork so cleaners can access benches, floors, and furniture. This is especially helpful in kitchens, bathrooms, and children's rooms.

Secure pets and valuables

Let us know about pets in advance. For safety and peace of mind, store jewellery, cash, and sensitive documents out of sight. Most professional teams are trustworthy, but good habits protect everyone.

List your priorities

Every household is different. If you care most about bathrooms, oven grease, or pet hair on carpets, tell us when you book. Clear priorities help cleaners allocate time where it matters most to you.

Provide access and product preferences

Confirm entry instructions, parking, and whether you prefer eco-friendly products. If certain rooms are off-limits, mention that too.
