We were really happy with Kathy – she’s done a great job and the only thing I don’t understand is why I didn’t do this sooner!!!! I’ve passed your details onto a friend of mine as she’s thinking of getting a cleaner also.

-Mrs S – Norwich

I would have no hesitation in recommending Rebecca and cleanhome to anyone.

-Mr R – Norwich

I like the idea of having the same person all the time as this is not the case with all agencies and it helps not having to explain how I like things done at every visit

Melted Crayon Art

Here at Cleanhome we have started our kids projects month. We will be showing you some of our favourite projects to do with the kids using simple household objects. Our project for the month is Melted Crayon Art.

 

Things you will need:

  • Crayons
  • Canvas
  • Blow Dryer
  • Hot Glue Gun

 

The process:

  1. Lay your canvas out on an area covered in newspaper or some material you don’t mind getting messy.
  2. Sort your crayons into the order you want them on your canvas. A popular choice is to organise them like a rainbow. 
  3. Using your Hot Glue Gun attach the crayons to the top on your canvas with approximately half of the crayon hanging over the top
  4. Prop the canvas vertically against something so the wax will drip correctly. Be sure to add newspaper to the wall to avoid any accidents. 
  5. Blow dry the crayons until they melt. This process should usually start in 20 to 40 seconds depending on the strength of your blow dryer. The dryer should be pointed downwards so the wax drips effectively. 

 

Further Tips:

  1. This artwork can be made even more unique using some tape to draw out a pattern before you melt the wax. This tape can then be removed to leave behind blank space creating a further effect. 
  2. Do this on multiple sides for an even better effect. After the wax has dried from the first set of crayons, remove them and attach them to another side of the canvas. When doing this make sure you don’t put too much heat on the already melted wax as it will ruin the dripping effect. 

 

This is just one of the great kids projects from us here at Cleanhome. Checkout more of the projects on our social media pages.

Peace of Mind

Only 1 in 50 applicants makes it on to our carefully screened database. We interview them twice, visit them in their own homes and take up at least two references. And if they still subsequently don't measure up to your standards, we will send you someone who does.

Personal Cleaner

We don't operate in teams, and therefore you get the same cleaner every week. This is good because you develop a relationship with your cleaner. We have some clients who have had the same cleaner for years and years - and that's what we want for you.

COVID-19 5th January Update

 

Just to let you know we are open for business as usual and you can continue to have your cleaner clean your house.

The government has made it clear that cleaners are still permitted to work inside peoples' homes as long as Government Guidelines on social distancing and staying safe are followed (see below). In summary:

You can be outside of your home for work purposes where your place of work remains open and where you cannot work from home, including if your job involves working in other people's homes.

The full text can be found here New National Restrictions from 5 January (in England; there are similar texts available for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland). Specifically relating to cleaners, the guidance continues: 'This guidance applies to those working in, visiting or delivering to home environments. These include, but are not limited to, people working in the following areas:

  • 'This can include work in other people's homes where necessary - for example, for nannies, cleaners, social care workers providing support to children and families, or tradespeople (this is not an exhaustive list)'

Note this guidance is for people who are fit and well, and is dependent on the following social distancing guidelines being followed:

  • No work should be carried out in a household where people are isolating or where an individual is being shielded.
  • The cleaners can continue work, providing that they are well and have no symptoms. No work should be carried out by a cleaner who has coronavirus symptoms, however mild, or when someone in their own household has symptoms.
  • No work should be carried out in a household where any occupants are clinically extremely vulnerable to coronavirus, or households with a possible or confirmed case of coronavirus.
  • Whilst in the house. a cleaner should maintain a safe distance of at least two metres from any household occupant at all times, and ensure good ventilation in the area where they are working, including opening the window.
  • Upon entering the home, cleaners should wash their hands using soap and water for 20 seconds.
  • Cleaners should wash their hands regularly, particularly after blowing their nose, sneezing or coughing, and when leaving the property.

The good news with regard to cleaning is that the cleaners can social distance from their clients very easily, and we would advise that, if you are at home when they are there, that you remain in a separate room to your cleaner.

If you are happy to adhere to the government guidelines - and if your cleaner has not been in touch already - then please just call the office and we will ensure that your cleaning continues.

Best regards

The Cleanhome Team
