Question 1

What is the difference between commercial cleaning and janitorial services?

Accepted Answer

Janitorial services typically cover everyday maintenance like taking out trash, vacuuming, and wiping down visible surfaces. Commercial cleaning involves deeper, specialized cleaning tasks (like carpet extraction, hard floor care, and forensic UV inspection) that are performed regularly but perhaps not daily. HomeMaid provides both, but our focus is on health-based commercial cleaning.

Question 2

How much does commercial cleaning cost?

Accepted Answer

Commercial cleaning costs vary based on facility size, frequency, industry risk level, and specific hygiene needs. We don't offer generic flat rates because every building is different. Instead, we perform a Facility Hygiene Assessment to provide a custom, accurate quote based on your exact scope of work.

Question 3

What is a UV inspection and why do you use it?

Accepted Answer

A UV (ultraviolet) inspection uses specialized blacklights to reveal biological matter, bacteria, and residues that are invisible to the naked eye. We use it to verify that high-touch surfaces are actually clean, not just 'looking' clean, ensuring a safer environment for your staff and clients.

Question 4

Do you clean medical and dental offices?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We specialize in healthcare-grade cleaning for medical clinics, dental offices, and wellness centers. Our teams are trained in cross-contamination prevention, color-coded microfiber systems, and OSHA-compliant cleaning protocols.

Question 5

Do you require long-term contracts?

Accepted Answer

We offer flexible service agreements. While most of our clients partner with us on ongoing annual agreements to maintain consistent hygiene standards, we also provide one-time deep cleans and post-construction cleaning without long-term commitments.

Question 6

What areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer

We serve commercial properties across Washington State, Idaho, and British Columbia, with primary hubs in Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, Tri-Cities, and Boise.

Question 7

How do you ensure quality control?

Accepted Answer

Our quality control is built into The HomeMaid Standard. We use digital inspection reporting, regular UV audits, and dedicated account managers who perform random walkthroughs to ensure our cleaning meets our strict healthcare-grade standards.

Question 8

Are your employees background checked?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every HomeMaid cleaning professional undergoes a thorough background check, comprehensive EVS (Environmental Services) training, and ongoing supervision.
