Living Areas

All the little things add up to ensure Living Spaces are clean, welcoming and SPARKLE!

Bedrooms

Bedrooms are a personal refuge. Making sure the bedroom is clean, tidy and orderly can bring an extra dose of relaxation and relief to your homeowner. Imagine them walking in after a long day, seeing a clean, refreshed oasis and the stress just melts off of them! All because of YOU!

To make the bedroom a perfect oasis make sure to do the following:

Straighten Comforter
Arrange Pillows
Fold Blankets
Make sure curtains and blinds are straight & tidy
Fans are dusted
Check that area rugs are neat, with no tags showing
Make sure pictures & lampshades are straight

Living Room

Living Rooms are the center of the home. Providing your family with a tidy living room will definitely bring Zen to the chaos of life! Even if it only stays organized for a moment, your family will appreciate walking into a living room that looks like a Pinterest post!

To achieve that Pinterest worth picture, be sure to do the following:

Fluff & arrange decorative pillows
Fold & drape blankets
Fluff & straighten cushions, make sure they look good
Make sure the following are straight:
- Curtains/blinds
- Pictures
- Lampshades
Check that area runs are neat, with no tags showing

Family Room/Den/Office

Much like the living room, you will need to tidy up the family room, den and office. These rooms also tend to have a lot of electronics, which attract and show a lot of dust! Make sure to double check your dusting in these rooms!

To create a room ready to use- make sure the following are done:

Fluff & arrange Pillows
Fold Blankets
Fluff cushions…make sure they look good.
Make sure the following are straight:
- Curtains/blinds
- Pictures
- Lampshades
Check that area rugs are neat, with no tags showing
Push in office chairs-make sure they are dusted/wiped down!
Disinfect remote controls and place in central location like the coffee table or tv console

Final Touches

Before leaving the room you are working on, make a quick check of the following:

Turn off all lights-this signifies that the space is 100% complete
- If the client is home, ensure any lights YOU turned on are off
- Turn fans back on that were shut off to clean
After floors have dried, replace items that were lifted from floor to clean (i.e. dog beds, rugs, shoes, toy bins, etc.)
Make sure you have not left any cleaning equipment, clothes or cleaners laying around.

When you have finished cleaning all the levels, there are a few more steps before you are ready to leave.

Make sure all the trash has been taken out to the large receptacle
Leave a few mints, leave behind note, and the weekly quote on the counter.
Pick up the check (if there is one) and store in a secure location.
Count your bottles and inventory supplies-you never want to leave anything behind!
If client is home, let them know you are leaving.
Lock the door
Clock out- send text only from Customer Factor if client is not home or unavailable.

YOU are providing a valuable service; your work is valued by the client.

YOU have an opportunity to make someone’s day shine a little brighter.

The day you are at the Client’s house is their best day of the week!
