How to Prep Your Home for a Cleaner’s Visit: What You Should (and Shouldn’t) Do

How to Prep Your Home for a Cleaner’s Visit: What You Should (and Shouldn’t) Do 🏠✨

Ready to have your home sparkle with a professional cleaning session? Whether you’re booking a one-time deep clean or investing in a regular service through TIDYB, knowing how to prep for your cleaner’s arrival can make a world of difference! While professional cleaning services like ours are here to save you time and stress (here’s why it’s worth it!), a little prep work on your part ensures the best possible results – and that your space gets the full TIDYB treatment it deserves.

Why Prepping Matters
You might wonder: “Why do I need to prep if I’m hiring a cleaner?” Great question! While we handle the heavy lifting – think scrubbing, vacuuming, and polishing – prepping your space helps us focus on what truly matters: making your home shine. Plus, it gives you peace of mind knowing your home is ready for the pros.

What You Should Do Before a Cleaning Visit
Declutter Surfaces – Clear away paperwork, toys, and items that could slow us down. This allows us to give surfaces the attention they need. Check out The Power of a Clean Home to see why decluttering matters!
Secure Pets – Pets are adorable, but they can be curious about cleaning tools. To keep them safe (and calm!), consider keeping them in a separate room during our visit.
Communicate Any Priorities – Is there a spot that needs extra TLC? Let us know! We love tailoring our services to your needs.
Empty the Sinks and Counters – We’ll handle the scrubbing, but having clear kitchen and bathroom counters helps us work our magic more efficiently. For pro-level cleaning tips, see our guide on How to Clean Your Home Like a Pro.
Check Your Entryway – A clean, clutter-free entryway ensures we can bring in our supplies easily and start quickly. Learn how to keep your entryway clean and clutter-free!

What You Shouldn’t Worry About
Deep Cleaning Yourself – That’s our job! We’re pros at tackling dirt and grime, so you don’t need to do a pre-clean.
Buying Extra Cleaning Supplies – We bring our own eco-friendly products and top-notch tools (see what’s worth investing in).
