House cleaners are regularly exposed to toxic commercial cleaners which often lead to rashes, headaches, memory loss, asthma, and other side effects when they clean four to five homes per day. By switching to non-toxic methods, they improve and sustain their own health in the workplace and that of the environment. Most earn wages and benefits so low they are unable to address these negative effects. For more than a decade, wages, the bay area non-profit, has launched worker-owned green businesses that create healthy, dignified jobs for low-income women. House cleaners are committed to providing excellent product and service from a house cleaner or house cleaning service. Expertise and consultation, and personal attention is always a consideration when choosing a house cleaner.
House cleaners are often called “trunk-slammers” or “susie vacuumcleaners”. You'll find many of these “trunk-slammers” and “susie vacuumcleaners” advertising in places like craigslist. What are the perils and pitfalls of hiring such an individual?. For starters, many independent house cleaners are not insured nor are they bonded. Most probably have no professional cleaning experience outside of cleaning their own homes. This sets an unsuspecting homeowner to come home to find ruined wood floors, scratched fiber glass tubs/showers, scratched stainless steel appliances or worse. And since the independent house cleaner isn't insured, the homeowner has to foot the bill. Yes, homeowner's insurance may cover it but if you have a high deductible, you may find yourself out of a lot of money.
House cleaners are a great way to create more free time in your life. Most house cleaners work on a wide variety of schedules ranging from weekly to bi-weekly to occasional monthly visits. Though house cleaners are typically hired to maintain weekly chores such as vacuuming, dusting, dishwashing, and tidying bathrooms, bedrooms, and kitchens, they can also customize their service to your personal needs. They can often offer an occasional deeper-cleaning of your house (such as carpets and windows).

Floor Buffer
Floor buffer is a type of sander with a polishing pad. Orbital polishers are less powerful but are easier to use, less expensive and more suited for home use. To get started, lift the base up and ensure the scrub brush or polishing pad is clean and free of any dirt or debris or you risk scratching your floor. Buff the floor starting from the back of the room working your way to the front. It's important to buff from the left to the right as you make your way back to the entrance. You need to keep tight control of the unit and ensure that you keep the cord out of your way.
Floor buffer is great for doing some light duty buffing on many different types of flooring. Can be used on vinyl, terrazzo, and marble style floors, to name a few. It will bring a decent shine to your floor, but nothing near the gleam that a high speed machine will achieve. These low speed machines are great for scrubbing, stripping, and buffing, commercially finished floors.
Floor buffer is made possible by controls and a handle to steer the floor buffer. The controls are there to manage both the direction and speed with which the floor buffer operates. Floor buffers are normally operated using a cleaning and polishing agent, with both of them being sprayed on the flooring surface in the path of the cleaning and polishing brushes. The cleaning agent allows the brushes to dislodge whatever dirt and grime is on the floor's surface, and the polishing agent gives you that nice glossy look that is typical of a well-kept floor. If you have been thinking about purchasing a floor buffer, there are a few things you should be aware of. There are several kinds of floor machines on the market, and each brand provides you with different accessories and features. This is why you'll encounter such a broad price range when shopping for a floor buffer.

Contract Cleaning
Contract cleaning is no longer regarded first and foremost as a single service in its own right, as it is being increasingly incorporated into the range of services offered by facilities management (fm) companies. For large companies and organizations, contract cleaning may be provided for one site or for multisite contracts, either as a standalone service or as one of a bundle of services (along with security or catering, for example). The contract cleaning industry faces important challenges. In a market in which contract budgets are very low, it is becoming ever more important to provide a highquality service over several years.
Compared with other industries, contract cleaning often has a poor image, perhaps because it is a cost that is not immediately seen to be relevant to clients' profits or budgets. At the same time, it is recognized that, without proper cleaning, premises become untidy, inefficient and potentially hazardous to health. Staff recruitment and retention continue to be key issues for the industry, as a result of competition from other labour intensive sectors, such as security and catering. There is scope for more training in contract cleaning, in order to develop skills on which a career can be based. An increase in the national minimum wage will see further labour issues arise for contract cleaning companies, which will have to ensure that recruitment and employment terms comply with the requirements specified by the new equality and human rights commission. Health and safety for contract cleaning staff and their customers is also an area in which safeguards must be taken. Proper management and disposal of cleaning waste materials is now an important responsibility for contract cleaners.
