What tasks can domestic cleaners do?

what tasks can domestic cleaners doDomestic cleaners can help you massively with the daily cleaning tasks that you don’t have time to do. A lot of people aren’t too sure what actually a person carrying out domestic cleaning can do, though. Some people are surprised when cleaners inform them that they can’t do certain tasks during their visit. So, today, we’re looking at what domestic cleaners can do for you. Don’t worry, though, if a cleaning task you need doing isn’t mentioned below, Cleaning Express likely has a cleaning service perfect for your needs.

What is a domestic cleaner?

A domestic cleaner is someone that can come round to your home and help with daily chores that you don’t have time to do. Things like dusting, or cleaning up the kitchen after breakfast, for example. When you book a cleaner through Cleaning Express, you are given an instruction sheet with loads of cleaning tasks on it. Filling out this form lets the cleaner know what cleaning tasks you need them to do during that visit. So, for example, you may need them to vacuum, wash up and change the beds. If a task changes (you have time to do the washing up, but not put the washing on, for example), you can let the cleaner know, and they can do the other task instead. A domestic cleaner is there is help you do the daily stuff; they can’t offer anything other than daily chores, though.

The tasks that domestic cleaners do include:

Dusting
Hoovering
Changing beds
Ironing
Tidy the kitchen
Mop floors
Tidy and clean the bathroom
Folding clothes
Washing clothes
Stacking and emptying dishwashers or washing up
Emptying bins
Watering flowers

Cleaning Express and our cleaners are generally pretty flexible when it comes to cleaning tasks. The cleaner you get each week from Cleaning Express doesn’t need to do the same cleaning duties every week. They can do the cleaning that you don’t have time to do. When you book your cleaning appointment, you can request additional cleaning tasks, and if the cleaner has time, they will do them. Our cleaners are here to help you and will do so within reason.

What can’t a domestic cleaner do?

Domestic cleaners don’t offer carpet cleaning or upholstery cleaning services. They also can’t do end of tenancy or deep cleaning services. This is because their time with each customer is limited. However, Cleaning Express can offer all of these cleaning services and more. So, if there’s a party coming up, for example, and would like a deep clean before or after the party, get in touch. Cleaning Express offers every cleaning service you can imagine. So just because your domestic cleaner can’t offer those services during their visit doesn’t mean Cleaning Express can’t.
