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.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Rebecca and cleanhome to anyone.
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
We just read a great new blog from one of our fellow Cleanhome colleagues. It’s inspired us and we’ve come up with more great tips to save a little money and help save the planet.
The UK uses up to 7.7 billion bottles of water each year according to water.org.uk. A large portion of these bottles do not get recycled. Downloading the Free Refill app will show you around 14000 restaurants and coffee shops which will refill water bottles for free. To take this one step further we recommend investing into a non plastic water bottle which you can reuse and take with you.
In many supermarkets you should buy loose fruit and veg instead of packets. This can not only save on the amount of plastic you use but will save you some money as well. Supermarkets such as Waitrose have started taking new steps to help this by giving paper bags instead of plastic ones when you buy your loose fruit and veg. Many other places now also have the option for you to bring your own container to fishmongers and butchers instead of bags and plastic wrapping
Some of the items that we buy frequently could actually be bought in bulk. Coffee and washing powder are often bought in small packets every week or month. However, if you buy the bigger packets of these things you will reduce the amount of packaging used therefore reducing the amount of plastic used. On top of the plastic reduction, when you buy the larger variants of these products you can save yourself some pennies!
These tips are all small things which lead up to a large difference. If everyone followed these tips we would see a significant reduction in plastic usage across the country. For more great tips and tricks check out our blog section and our social media pages.
Cleanhome Norwich – Rebecca
We are not happy until you are! Your cleaner will usually tailor their services to fit exactly with your requirements, including spring cleaning and ironing.
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:
Note this guidance is for people who are fit and well, and is dependent on the following social distancing guidelines being followed:
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
