When it comes to running a business or household, one of the most difficult things to do is knowing when it is time to get help with cleaning. Although you may feel as though you’ve been keeping the stains, piles, and dust under control for a number of years, it’s okay to wonder “could I get better results if I use professional cleaning service in Cape Town?”

Keeping a living or working space in pristine condition from top to bottom all the time is a commitment that requires time and consistency—which can be hard to come by when you’re juggling other responsibilities as well. So, how do you know when it’s time to stop doing it yourself? Below are the telltale signs to look out for. 

Nobody has time to clean anymore

As motivating as it is it to have a clean-up-after-yourself policy at work or it’s-your-turn-to-do-the-dishes rule at home, it’s not always possible to keep up with your cleaning duties. Working 9-5 or longer means less room for cleaning in your schedule, and there may be other important things requiring your attention in your free time. If you find yourself bogged down by more urgent tasks, it’s a clear indication that you need someone to tackle your cleaning for you.

You hate cleaning

Do you always leave the dishes in the sink until the next day or sweep the dust under the carpet? You definitely need a helping hand if you despise chores that involve all things dirty. Whether it’s because of a constant lack of energy, a medical condition that makes cleaning unpleasant, or a fear of dirt (germaphobia a real thing), one thing is certain: those dirty surfaces aren’t going to clean themselves.  

You always feel embarrassed to have people over

Another clear sign that you should call in professional cleaners is when you always hesitate to invite people into your building because the space is a mess. A dirty environment can leave an unfavourable impression on clients visiting your office. It can have your friends and family refuse to come over to your home again. They may not understand that you are tired or working overtime, so it’s best to be on the safe side and have someone in charge of keeping the place neat and tidy. 

You are growing

Your family or staff is expanding. So, you’ve moved into a bigger home or office. Obviously, this means that you’re going to cover more ground in terms of cleaning. There are more rooms to clean, more square meters to vacuum or mop, and the garbage and dishes will pile up quicker. At this point, you’ll need someone who can come in and clean more than once a week, which is a level of consistency a professional cleaning service can provide.

Your personal cleaner constantly lets you down

Bad hires aren’t just frustrating, they can also be financially draining for a business or household. If your personal cleaner doesn’t deliver quality work, are frequently absent, or are always arriving late, it may be time to let them go, and appoint a cleaning service which is more reliable.
