“Its on the House”
house always wins
The Keepers are obsessed with helping our clients get their free time back. We believe that your “me time” should not include scrubbing toilets and cleaning floors. We KNOW the feeling of coming home, absolutely exhausted, only to continue the work at home. It is HARD to relax completely in a dirty home. Having a tidy and clean space is virtually life changing for mental wellbeing and the ability to be fully present with your loved ones. Allowing the number one house cleaning service in Boston to care for your home means more relaxation, time, and energy for all the other areas of your life.
The professional team of house cleaners here at The Keepers are bonded and insured, meaning you can be confident that your home is in capable and legitimate hands. The Keepers only choose team members who completely align with our company core values: Integrity, Family First, and having a Grateful & Positive Attitude. If a candidate can’t wholeheartedly say they LOVE to clean, they don’t make the cut into our close-knit team. We completely understand how personal it is to have someone in your home, especially someone who is cleaning all the nooks and crannies! Being the top rated cleaning service in Boston means we take our client’s trust incredibly serious, and always send the same cleaner to your home as often as possible. If we do need to send a different cleaner, our extensive notes on each home ensure a seamless transition/fill-in, so your service is always the same high level cleaning you’ve come to know.
The Keepers are not the “quick wipe down” kind of cleaning service. We became the highest rated and reviewed cleaning service in Boston and the Northshore due to our attentiveness to the details- we know that those are the tasks our clients simply cannot get too in their busy lives. We work in efficient, methodical patterns to systematically clean every area of the home listed below on our standardized residential cleaning checklist. These checklists ensure you are receiving the same great clean each and every visit. Our cleaners are trained to seek out those areas that tend to get missed in the hustle and bustle of everyday life; ceiling fans, tops of door frames, light switches, cabinet fronts- those are the areas we especially take pride in taking care of for our clients. If you have a particular task that you don’t see on our checklist, just mention it to us through our website or to your cleaner and we will be sure to allot the proper amount of time at your next visit to get it done right for you.
At your first visit from The Keepers, we work tirelessly to get your home to our maintenance level of clean. First visits always take the longest, as build up and dust is very common in all homes that have not had a regular cleaner. From there, we discuss with you regular cleanings that make sense for both your home and your wallet. The majority of our clients find that bi-weekly is a great appointment frequency, though many are thrilled with weekly or monthly cleanings. Everyone’s home and family is different, and we will always suggest to you what we believe is the necessary frequency- some homes truly only need monthly visits! We want your relationship with the top cleaning service in Boston to be an honest and happy one, and we have seen many homes that either increase or decrease their frequency after a few visits based on our suggestions.
Our clients and team members both love our checklists! Below, we have listed the tasks we complete at every visit, from the first big clean to the regular cleanings that follow.
